Audi A3 | S3 | RS3 (8V) with coilover suspension
The Audi A3 8V, produced from 2012 to 2020, impresses with a sporty design, modern technology and a wide range of engines. The more powerful variants, S3 and RS3, set new standards in terms of performance with their Quattro drive and turbo engines. While the A3 scores as a versatile compact car, the S3 offers a more dynamic set-up and the RS3 impresses with its iconic 2.5-litre five-cylinder engine and up to 400 hp.
A coilover suspension significantly improves the road holding of all A3 8V models. Individual lowering allows you to optimise your vehicle both visually and in terms of driving dynamics. Particularly with sporty models such as the S3 and RS3, the driving behaviour benefits enormously - a more direct steering feel and more stability at high speeds are the result. Compared to a classic sports suspension, a height-adjustable sports suspension offers the option of adjusting the vehicle height to suit your needs. For example, you can lower the RS3 for a more aggressive look, while the A3 8V can be set up for everyday use.
