More power, looks, and fun.
The quick and nimble Audi S3 is quite a blast in its own right, weaving through sharp corners thanks to its smaller wheelbase and punching out of the curves with its tuned 2.0 TFSI. It’s a joy to drive and ABT Sportsline has made it better with their newest upgrade program.
“Most people don’t want a piece of sports equipment only but a fully enjoyable roadworthy car too, capable of doing anything it needs to do,” said Hans-Jürgen Abt, CEO of ABT Sportsline. And a fully enjoyable roadworthy car is just what they got in the new ABT Sportsline Audi S3.
It all starts with the 2.0 TFSI turbocharged inline-four engine. A stainless steel ABT Sportsline exhaust system with new muffler and quad 90-mm black chrome-plated tailpipes shows off the boost in power. In the ABT Power stage, the engine’s output grows to 370 horsepower and 354 lb-ft. of torque. But the most fun will be had with the ABT Power S that produces 400 horsepower and 369 lb-ft. of torque for some strong acceleration.
To go along with that added power, ABT Sportsline touched up the chassis with new wheels and anti-roll bars. Customers can choose from a range of weight-optimized ER-C, DR, FR, or CR alloy wheels in 18-, 19-, or 20-inch diameters with sticky high-performance Dunlop or Continental tires for loads of grip. New ABT anti-roll bars reduce the tendency for the body to roll into corners for a more agile and stable dynamic.
Elsewhere, ABT Sportsline gave the Audi S3 a new set of fender inserts and integrated door entrance lights for an added touch of exclusivity.
The entire range of performance-improving and visual upgrades from ABT Sportsline is currently available for the Audi S3 as an entire package or individual accessories.
