Audi RS3 Competition Limited Is a 750-Unit Farewell to the Five-Cylinder, With German Prices Announced

Audi positions the 750‑unit model as a farewell to the 2.5‑litre five‑cylinder in response to tightening European emissions rules.

Overview

  • The special edition is capped at 750 units in Sportback and Sedan forms, priced in Germany at €108,365 and €110,005 respectively.
  • Output matches the standard RS3 at 294 kW and 500 Nm with 0–100 km/h in 3.8 seconds, though the limiter rises to 290 km/h and firewall insulation is reduced for more cabin character.
  • Track-focused hardware includes three-way adjustable coilover suspension with a supplied toolkit and setup guide, a stiffer rear stabiliser, ceramic brakes, and optional Pirelli P Zero Trofeo R tyres.
  • Visual and cabin cues include matte‑carbon aero pieces, an exclusive Malachite Green paint option, Neodymium Gold 19‑inch wheels, gold-accented interior trim, sequential numbering, and headlights that animate the engine’s 1‑2‑4‑5‑3 firing order.
  • Right‑hand‑drive allocations include 18 for Australia, 10 for New Zealand, 11 for the UK, and 100 for Japan, with European deliveries slated to begin mid‑2026 and North American availability yet to be announced.
