Which S3 is the Best?
The S3 and its A3 counterpart are nearing the end of their life cycles, and an all-new version of Audi's compact sedan will likely go on sale here in the U.S. for the 2021 or 2022 model year. Still, the current-gen S3 remains a great mix of performance and luxury, and its poise and sophistication set it apart from the competition. If you're looking for a fun, comfortable commuter that makes a good impression without breaking the bank, and you don't need the added flexibility of a larger vehicle, the S3 is tough to beat.
