2025 Audi S3: 328 HP, 0-60 in 4.4 Seconds, and 'Preloaded' Turbo Antilag

The current Audi S3 is reaching its midlife, and that means it's time for a crisis. Or rather an update, which brings comprehensively improved performance to the 2025 incarnation of the beloved compact sport sedan, enhancing both power and handling.

Both the front and rear of the 2025 S3 have been tweaked, while the interior has been updated with new technology and animated laser-cut backlit door panels. Most of the changes are of the kind we prefer though—mechanical—starting with the 2.0-liter turbo-four and seven-speed automatic transmission that live under the hood.
