Audi has introduced the new Audi RS3 Competition Limited, a highly exclusive version of its compact performance car created to celebrate the brand’s legendary five-cylinder engine.

The special model keeps the familiar 2.5-liter turbocharged five-cylinder engine, producing 294 kW (400 PS) and 500 Nm of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and Audi’s quattro all-wheel-drive system. Performance remains strong, with 0–100 kph in 3.8 seconds, while the top speed rises to 290 kph thanks to performance upgrades.

Rather than boosting power, Audi focused on handling improvements. The Competition Limited gains motorsport-inspired coilover suspension, adjustable dampers, and a stiffer rear anti-roll bar designed to sharpen cornering and track performance. The car also features torque-vectoring quattro technology to improve traction and agility.

The exterior receives several exclusive details, including matte carbon fiber elements, aerodynamic canards, a larger rear spoiler, and 19-inch wheels finished in Neodymium Gold. Inside, the cabin features RS bucket seats, special trim colors, and limited-edition identification, highlighting its collectible status.

Production will be strictly limited to 750 units worldwide, reinforcing the RS3 Competition Limited as one of the most exclusive versions of Audi’s compact performance model.
