Product Overview

Audi S3 Cabriolet (Type 8V) facelift is the performance variant of the A3 subcompact convertible in production from 2016 to 2020. It was available with a turbocharged inline-4 engine that displaced 2.0 liters.
Just like the A3 Cabriolet of the same generation, the S3 is rather ugly. Audi made AWD standard for the S model, which is hardly surprising. The extra body kit does make the car less offensive from most angles.
Utility-minded owners will have to keep in mind that the 285L (10cu-ft) cargo space may not be sufficient.
