400hp and 480nm: numbers which 15 years ago would've been impressive for a supercar. In 2018, they're the figures for a five door hatchback. The Audi RS 3 isn't just any old hatchback though - a 2. 5-litre five cylinder turbo is matched to a Quattro all-wheel drive system for speed across a twisty road that even the latest supercars would struggle to match. The Mercedes-AMG A45 has similarly bonkers numbers and is the current hyper hatch king. So can the latest RS 3 compete? I compare the two to find out. A big thank you to Inchcape Mercedes-Benz for lending us the Mercedes-AMG A45 - Take a look at my Audi RS 3 POV test drive

The Mercedes AMG A45 looks like a rally car I think so. Both cars look amazing! I prefer the black spoke style AMG wheels. The Audi wheels are ugly. AMG spoke style wheels have more of a custom/tuning wheels design, BBS style. The interior of both cars is awesome! I think dual exhaust tips on each side would have been better on the Audi RS3 and of course more noise. The ABT version of the Audi is mind blowing! -

What percent of people take their daily driving cars to tracks? For every one million drivers, probably less than 500. So what use is a review that rates a car that -moves around-, ie slides, as being the better one? I'd risk a $600 fine for losing traction, where I live. So, the best-handling car is the one that these irrelevant motoring journalists rate as being -worse-?

I love the RS3 but 80k dollars for a maxed out one is a shit ton of money. But who need a maxed out one anyway. Here in Sweden, I can find used ones for 50-65k dollars but that's still a lot of money.
I can find regular used a3 Sportback for less than 20k dollars. You sure pay a lot for the RS entertainment.

Nice car but too many useless electronic gizmos for my liking, especially the dash display which has too many features to distract the driver taking their eyes off the road and increasing their chances of an accident. Why not fit something more useful and practical to their cars like a heated windscreen.

I-ve driven a few very fast Audi-s. Yes they were quick in a straight line but felt clinical, numb and detached. Honestly once you-ve driven fast M cars Audi-s do feel dull. I own an Audi Q5 3. 0 Quattro so I-m not hating on the brand!

Absolutely love the Audi RS3. I think it's a perfect combination of being sporty looking but also classy. Shame I'll probably never be able to afford one.

I love your videos, but today I really felt like I was listening to Wallace from -Wallace and Gromit-. Which made the video even funnier to watch! :D

Explain how it's 0-100 in 3. 7 if the power to weight is 170
Where the new a45s is 0-100 in 3. 9 and the power to weight ratio is 190

Audi RS3 is the coolest car out there IMO. Great combination of looking classy and sporty without turning into a boy racer car.
