Audi S3 2001
(2001-2003)
The facelifted original S3 model was presented by Audi in 2001. The most essential changes to car's outside configuration incorporated one-piece headlights/indicator units, recently outlined front wings and new back lights groups. Discernible changes occurred in the engine compartment likewise, as the 1.8L turbocharged petrol unit now profited by variable valve timing giving a 15-hp power boost. Regardless of its all-wheel-drive getting the "quattro" designation, the framework was actually adjusting traction relying upon the grasp level. Neither the starting S3 model nor its 2001 facelift were accessible for buying on the North American market.
