Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift vs Honda Civic Type R (FK8)
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 Honda Civic Type R (FK8)’s
13.64 s — a margin of
1.87 s. To 60 mph the Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift takes
3.35 s and the Honda Civic Type R (FK8)
5.13 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.

Each car is trimmed to its own published figures —
9/10 for the Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift,
9/10 for the Honda Civic Type R (FK8) —
so a heavier car can still be the quicker one if that is what it tests.
Is the Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift or the Honda Civic Type R (FK8) faster?
The Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 11.77 s to the Honda Civic Type R (FK8)'s 13.64 s, a margin of 1.87 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 3.35 s against 5.13 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 Honda Civic Type R (FK8) 0-60 time?
The Honda Civic Type R (FK8) reaches 60 mph in 5.13 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 13.64 s at 107.4 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Audi RS3 Sedan 8Y Facelift trips the lights at 117.1 mph and the Honda Civic Type R (FK8) at 107.4 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 9 of 10 for the Honda Civic Type R (FK8). Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
