Comparable Models
The 2022 S3 is without a doubt gorgeously sculpted, entertaining, and luxurious, it belongs to a segment that consistently wows on the road. Compact-luxury sedans are accessible machines that exude more practicality and value than other sports-centric segments. Drivers will find worthwhile alternatives from competition from other German automakers in the form of the Mercedes-AMG CLA-Class and the BMW M2. As stunning as these vehicles are, the M2’s style doesn’t feel as imaginative as the S3, and while the CLA-Class is a pretty choice, its lacking on standard features with an already high starting price tag. Of course, for those who love the tech of the S3, but don’t plan on pushing the limits of its performance, a fully loaded Technik Audi A3 could be a very viable option.
