Gearing up for a new era of performance, Audi enthusiasts can rejoice. Digital design has revealed the highly anticipated 2025 Audi RS 3 Sedan, design.
These detailed illustrations closely mirror recent test vehicle sightings, providing a clear picture of the car’s significant aesthetic overhaul.
This high-performance subcompact car positions itself as a direct competitor to the BMW M2, offering the added versatility of two additional doors.
The renderings depict a comprehensively redesigned front fascia, featuring all-new headlights, a revised grille treatment, and a more aggressive bumper with a prominent front splitter and enlarged air intakes for optimized engine cooling.
The rear echoes these design cues with restyled taillights, a more muscular bumper, and the hallmark dual oval exhaust pipes synonymous with Audi’s RS models.

Notably, the designers retained the same wheel design seen on the prototype that recently conquered the Nürburgring racetrack in a blistering 7:33.123 seconds.
This time represents a significant improvement of seven seconds over the previous model and a commanding five seconds faster than the latest iteration of the BMW M2.
The legendary five-cylinder engine makes a triumphant return under the hood of the facelifted RS 3. This turbocharged 2.5-liter mill retains the exhilarating performance you crave, offering 394 horsepower in Europe and a bump to 401 hp in North America.
While these figures are impressive, Audi teases even more power on the horizon, hinting at a potential swansong edition for this beloved engine.
The facelift extends beyond aesthetics, with a sharpened chassis for enhanced handling. Optional adaptive dampers and an advanced torque vectoring system work in concert to optimize control.
Imposing 19-inch ceramic brakes provide ample stopping power, and the record-breaking prototype wore grippy Pirelli semi-slick tires.
Expect a European revealing by the end of August 2024, with deliveries to follow soon after. A North American release will likely fall within the 2025 model year. But the big question: do these leaked renderings pique your interest in the upcoming RS 3?
