Used Audi Rs Q3 for Sale in Stoke-on-Trent

About the Audi Rs Q3

The Audi RS Q3 is the performance version of the compact Q3 SUV. It was built on the first-generation Q3 platform, which Audi also used for the standard car, but it was fitted with a more powerful engine, stiffer suspension and wider wheels and arches. It sits above the regular Q3 in the range and is aimed at buyers who want the practicality of a small SUV with the pace of a hot hatch.

The model is powered by a 2.5-litre five-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine, the 2.5 TFSI, which produces 310 PS in the launch version. It is paired with Audi's quattro four-wheel drive system and a seven-speed S tronic dual-clutch automatic gearbox. The engine delivers strong mid-range pull and a distinctive exhaust note, and the car feels quick in everyday driving. Owners often praise its grip and stability in corners, along with a well-finished interior and the usability of the SUV body.

When looking at a used example, check the full service history carefully, as regular oil changes and correct servicing matter on a turbocharged engine. Ask about any warning lights, unusual noises from the engine or gearbox, and whether the S tronic has shifted smoothly, since clutch and mechatronic issues are worth ruling out. Look for oil leaks around the engine, examine brake discs and pads given the car's performance, and check tyre wear, as the larger wheels can be costly to replace. Ask whether any previous accident damage has been repaired properly.

If you want a fast, practical SUV that handles well on Staffordshire roads, the RS Q3 is well worth considering. Take a look at the cars below or get in touch to find out more.
