Today we got the opportunity to see a heavily modified version of the new Audi RS3, a model tuned by the Swiss specialists at Sportec.

Christian Gebhardt from Sport Auto managed to take the German model for a spin at the Hockenheim circuit in Germany. Under the bonnet of Sportec’s RS3 sits a retuned 2.5-liter five-cylinder unit producing 470 horsepower and 625Nm of torque, enough power to provide a 0-100 km/h sprint in 3,8 seconds and a top speed of 302 km/h.
