ABT played with the Audi A3 Sportback

The German company ABT Sportsline is one of the world's largest modifiers focusing on Volkswagen Group vehicles . That's why it's not surprising that she didn't miss the opportunity to modify the latest Audi news .

I don't think I need to present the A3 Sportback in any detail, so I'll jump right into the news that ABT has brought. First of all, it is a new name AS3 Sportback , and in terms of appearance, a new grille and 18 or 19-inch wheels. It will definitely be impressive if I say that the A3 also got a new front and rear bumper, side skirts, intakes in the front fenders, new exhaust tips and a decent rear spoiler.

For a better driving experience, the Sportback received a modified chassis and suspension , which brought the car 35 mm closer to the road. Changes did not escape the engines either – the 1.4 TSI jumped from 122 to 160 hp, the two-liter TDI from 150 to 180 hp. ABT revealed that it is preparing similar modifications for the 1.8 TSI and 1.6 TDI engines. For better stopping power, the A3 has 345mm rotors.
