On a German forum a guy asked a dealer they said mid to late 1st quarter of 2024. There was a few pictures of the new bumpers and grill.Hi All
Would anyone know when the facelift might be available? I’ve read by the end of the year, but any info would be appreciated.
Cheers.
Yes I've been checking out all the video's and reviews . I'am pretty happy with the bump in power and very happy it will get the Magna diff from the current RS3 . Hopefully its comes with a good range of colours and wheels to go with it . Are you interested in getting one ?@Mr Freeze I take it you have been checking all the videos and magazine reviews. Sounds like good upgrade in power along with the rear diff from RS3 & Golf R. Looks like they are also going to offer Akrapovic exhaust as well for the S3.
i had a look back to 2020 for some timings. So Audi did same trick with S3, they previewed a prototype in Feb 2020 and then it was released without camo on 11 Aug 2020 ( so 6months ) of course what we don’t know is if it was always intended to be 6months or if the events of 2020 pushed it back. I suspect it will be 6months as VW Golf R full unveil is the summer…..then Audi can do S3………then we have RS3
Hopefully its comes with a good range of colours and wheels to go with it .
I only won £3 so going to be a good year behind you thenha ha, my thoughts exactly. Hoping for return of a nice blue such as sepang or ultra blue. A new range of wheels would be good as well. Not very keen with current S3 wheels.
A S3 would certainly be on my list but just worried cost might be stratospheric for spec I’d want with current Audi range format. Anyway I won £13 on Thunderball, so I’ll add it to the new car fund.
I'am also worried the pricing will be stupidly high along with how high Audi's APR's are at the moment it will price a lot of people out of getting one .ha ha, my thoughts exactly.

I think it might be revealed after the normal A3. But as it’s a facelift it might appear quicker than in 2020 when S3 appeared in August, after normal A3 appeared in March or April 2020.Will the S3 facelift be revealed later than a basic A3? Just wondering the release should be sometime soon since Golf was unveiled few weeks ago and Octavia today. Leon and A3 still under camouflages.
The power is up on the facelift car but the 0-60 time stays at 4.8 which to me isn't a step forward .
My 2019 S3 as a 0-60 time of 4.7 and the 17/18 pre GPF cars hit 60 in 4.6 .
I know won't be a massive deal to some but the price this car will be I thought the times would
of been better .
Yeah I suppose its best to wait for the full unveil before I make a judgement on itaudi are quoting 4.7 for 0-100kmh 62mph. To be honest probably have to wait for full unveil. But perhaps just being conservative and it’s really 4.5/4.6
