Looking for a new car? We compare the 2022 Kia Stinger GT2 AWD V6 and the 2022 Audi S3 Sedan Quattro to see which is the better ride.
As just a quicker version of the A3 — there’s also a third 401-horsepower RS 3 model, gotta try that — the S3 gets the all-new stuff that the redesigned A3 has gotten. To recap, that’s a new engine and hybrid system, bigger dimensions all around, and plenty of interior upgrades that put the joy back into driving.The reason for the S? The S must be for “stiff,” as in stiff seats. The Fine Nappa leather seats in the S3 are that much harder than those in the A3.
This may have been thanks to the $1,950 Black Optic Package, which added 19-inch wheels and more pretty exterior touches, or the S Sport Package, which for $1,100 added sport suspension and red brake calipers.Say you’ve been out to a local dining establishment, and the service has just been one slow delivery after another. What you thought would be an hourlong meal quickly turned into a two-hour foot-tapping excursion.
When you finally get the check and pay, you just want to hightail it home, and maybe get some aggressions out while doing it. The S3 is a great car for that getaway. The 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine will get you to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds, according to C&D, 10% faster than the Stinger. And that’s with just 306 horsepower, a herd almost 20% smaller than the Kia.
The S3′s 7-speed S-Tronic transmission is much happier in shift mode; automatic spent some time hunting gears when the accelerator is floored.
