The Audi S3 2.0 TFSI S-tronic Quattro (2015) is a compact performance sedan that delivers genuine thrills without sacrificing everyday usability. This car is a rare find in the Philippine market, offering a potent combination of turbocharged power and all-weather grip.
Under the hood lies a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 engine producing 294 PS and 380 Nm of torque, available from just 1,250 rpm. Paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission and permanent all-wheel drive, this Audi rockets from 0 to 100 km/h in only 5.2 seconds and reaches an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h. Despite its performance, it returns a combined fuel economy of 40.9 km/L (6.9 L/100 km), making it surprisingly efficient for a hot hatchback in sedan form.
Key Highlights
Quattro All-Wheel Drive: Provides exceptional traction and stability on both dry and wet Philippine roads.
19-Inch Alloy Wheels: Wrapped in 235/35 R19 tires, these enhance grip and visual presence.
Full Leather Interior: Power-adjustable seats and dual-zone automatic climate control ensure comfort for all occupants.
Comprehensive Safety Suite: Includes six airbags (driver, passenger, knee, front and rear curtain, rear side), ABS with EBD, brake assist, stability and traction control, plus tire pressure monitoring.
LED Headlights & DRLs: Modern lighting improves visibility and adds a distinctive look.
Touchscreen with Bluetooth & USB: Keeps you connected with audio streaming and device charging, though it lacks navigation and Apple CarPlay.
At a price in the Philippines of ₱4,500,000, this 2015 model represents a compelling value for driving enthusiasts who want a premium, all-wheel-drive sedan that feels both athletic and refined. While it’s a discontinued model, the unlimited/2-year warranty offers peace of mind. This car is ideal for the discerning Filipino buyer who values performance, build quality, and the prestige of the four rings over the latest tech gadgets.
