Other than the addition of the new color option, Quantum Gray, the S3 goes into 2020 with few exterior changes. Of course, being an S-model, this remains a sportier-looking machine than the regular A3. Unique S3 badging, a panoramic sunroof, a sporty 18-inch wheel design as standard, aluminum door sills, and LED headlights on the Premium Plus model set the S3 apart.
The S3 sedan measures 175.8 inches in length, 54.8 inches in height, and 70.7 inches wide. The wheelbase stretches to 103.6 inches. These dimensions are close to those of the Mercedes-Benz A-Class sedan. At the time of writing, curb weight wasn't available for the revised S3 sedan trims, but we expect the sedan to weigh in around 3,500 lbs again.
