スレッド： アウディ S3 サルーン メルセデス ライバルをアンダー カットするには

S3 サルーンと比較されます少し大きめのメルセデス ・ ベンツ CLA45 AMG のあからさまな視覚的なドラマを欠いているが、アウディはその新しいパフォーマンス サルーンがそれにもかかわらず日常の実用性、宿泊施設や知覚品質の高いレベルを提供することを主張.

Audi set to beat its German competitors to the UK market with its hot compact saloon Audi is set to become the first of Germanys premium car brands to commit to the compact performance saloon ranks when the new four-door S3 is revealed at the Shanghai motor show in April.
The S3 saloon was previewed as the A3 saloon concept shown at the 2011 Geneva motor show. It has been conceived to bolster Audis already strong standing in the lucrative Chinese car market and provide an extra sales pillar for its US operations.
The S3 saloon will run the same 296bhp turbocharged 2. 0-litre engine and four-wheel drive underpinnings as the recently revealed S3 hatchback. It is likely to go on sale in the UK late next year, priced at about 33,000.
Audi insiders wont be drawn on the likelihood of an even hotter RS3 saloon joining the line-up, but they admit that it is not their top priority at the moment.
Are we excited by such a car? Of course, but we dont see it as essential, said an Audi spokesman.
At the initial unveiling in concept car form in Geneva, Audis new price-leading saloon showcased a highly tuned version of the German car makers turbocharged 2. 5-litre five-cylinder petrol engine, delivering a claimed 402bhp and 369lb ft of torque.
At some 4500mm in length, the new S3 saloon is roughly the same length as the old Audi 80 — the precursor to todays A4. It is underpinned by parent company Volkswagens latest front-wheel drive platform.
Although the S3 saloon lacks the outright visual drama of the slightly larger Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG with which it will be compared, Audi claims that its new performance saloon will nevertheless offer greater levels of everyday practicality, accommodation and perceived quality.
