Audi has unveiled the 2014 S3 Sedan at the 2013 New York International Auto Show. Its high-performance four-cylinder engine combines highly advanced efficiency technologies – dual fuel injection, exhaust manifold integrated in the cylinder head, the Audi valvelift system and a rotary valve module for thermal management.
The 2014 Audi S3 Sedan has a lowered body by 25 mm than the A3, due to sportier suspensions. Large brakes with 18 inch wheels. Modifications done to the bumpers, the single frame grille, air intakes, exterior mirror housings, side sills and rear spoiler. In the interior, the S3 Sedan offers sport seats (optional S sport seats), instruments with gray dials and trim strips in black 3D look.
The new S3 Sedan is powered by the 2.0 TFSI engine which produces 221 kW (300 hp) and 380 Nm (280.27 lb ft) of torque. Paired with the S tronic, it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62.14 mph) in 4.9 seconds; with the manual transmission it takes 5.3 seconds. The car’s top speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h (155.34 mph).
The four-cylinder turbo has a combined fuel consumption of just 6.9 liters per 100 km (34.09 US mpg) or 7.0 liters (33.60 US mpg) (with S tronic or manual transmission), respectively – for a CO2 equivalent of 159 or 162 grams per km (255.89 or 260.71 g/mile).
