Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift vs Audi RS Q3 Mk I 340 PS

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift is the quicker car, covering it in 11.77 s at 117.1 mph against the Audi RS Q3 Mk I 340 PS’s 12.76 s — a margin of 0.98 s. To 60 mph the Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift takes 3.35 s and the Audi RS Q3 Mk I 340 PS 4.19 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass, rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Questions

Is the Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift or the Audi RS Q3 Mk I 340 PS faster?
The Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 11.77 s to the Audi RS Q3 Mk I 340 PS's 12.76 s, a margin of 0.98 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 3.35 s against 4.19 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift 0-60 time?
The Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift reaches 60 mph in 3.35 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 11.77 s at 117.1 mph.
What is the Audi RS Q3 Mk I 340 PS 0-60 time?
The Audi RS Q3 Mk I 340 PS reaches 60 mph in 4.19 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 12.76 s at 106.6 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift trips the lights at 117.1 mph and the Audi RS Q3 Mk I 340 PS at 106.6 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 9 of 10 for the Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift and 10 of 10 for the Audi RS Q3 Mk I 340 PS. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
