This is the new 2021 Audi RS3, and it's a belter. Unusually for a hot hatchback these days, or any other type of car for that matter, it arrives with a 2. 5-litre five-cylinder engine. That makes a wholesome 395bhp (400hp, metric horsepower fans, alongside 369lb ft of torque (500Nm. With a seven-speed dual clutch gearbox and four-wheel the RS3 is good for 0-62mph in just 3. 8 seconds and a top speed of 174mph. Better still, it has a tricky differential at the rear that can torque vector and vary the amount of power it sends to either rear wheel, which even makes the car a touch drifty. Yes, really. All of which adds up to something that sounds quite startling. Then, though, there is the price. In the UK the RS3 costs from at least -50, 900 for the Sportback, as tested here (saloon from -51, 900. But then optioned versions, topping out with a 'Vorsprung' specification at -58, 650, to which you can add an RS Dynamic Pack, including adaptive dampers, which costs -5000 - though it does also raise the top speed to 180mph. How good, then, is this new mega hatchback that's dominated by all these big numbers? It's over to Autocar's esteemed road test editor, Matt Saunders, to give the verdict

What a terrible lack lustre review of a car that appeals to so many. Apart from the comments about the A45 or golf R there was zero comparison to anything else at the price point. No mention of the M2 or cayman for example. Not sure where they find these pseudo matter of fact presenters. Maybe that's what happens when you put a car journalist infront of the camera instead of a word document.

I could have fallen asleep watching this. Great car, fantastic location but a very poor review led to me baling out at 4. 12. I will wait for Rory Reid and his team to make a beautiful, entertaining, informative mini film. The same car, probably the same press junket will resort in a vastly superior piece of work

It's no more expensive than an AMG45S or an M2 comp so if that's all that BMW fan boys Autocar can criticise then then it must be a frustratingly great car for them. Couldn't you pick someone who can convey even a scintilla of motoring enthusiasm to do the review, this is utterly depressing -

I am sorry but this guy lacks any charisma, his delivery is monotonous, I honestly nearly fell asleep. Henry Catchpole Harry Metcalfe Steve Sutcliffe Are all quiet thoughtful presenters but engage. I am sure he is kind to his wife and pets. but please just let him write not present

When the bugger living near me with the current RS3 replaces it with this one, I really hope he doesn't go and get it chipped again. If he does I hope his engine explodes publicly, embarrassingly but otherwise safely. Same with the RS6 in Tesco's car park.

I love this engine- the fact the 5 cylinder 2. 5 aint been phased out yet fills me with joy. If this presenter had his way I think we'd all being 20mph max with monotone exhaust. Even worst his voice would be pre-programmed into your infotainment system---

top statement ' the'll continue making them until somebody puts the boss in prison, anyway they already did that did'nt they - that got rolling laughing.

Matt Saunders is quite simply the most dull car reviewer on the planet. Only he could make a car like this sound utterly boring. Yawnnnnn.

The A3 is based on the same platform has the Golf GTI/R. So Yes a base model A3 can go fast and not fall apart. It is a VW; )

Dude, you need a triple espresso for starters, even the most dinamic car would look pedestrian with your style of car testing.
