Last year brought us many new models from Audi, including redesigned versions of the A4, Q7, and R8, and it seems that 2016 will also be packed with new releases from the four-ringed automaker. Among them, we will see the facelifted A3 family, which will include a hatchback, sedan, and cabriolet. While we’ve already seen the hatch and drop-top testing as camouflaged prototypes in 2015, 2016 just brought us the first spy shots of the performance-oriented S3 model. The photos come from Denmark’s Pro-Street and confirm that the S3 Sportback will receive styling cues that already debuted on the redesigned A4.
There’s no word as to when the new S3 Sportback will break cover, but given that the entire facelifted A3 family is likely to debut at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, the performance hatch could show up in Paris this autumn and go on sale by the end of 2016. A U.S.-spec model isn’t likely, given Audi doesn’t sell the A3 hatch in North America, so your only options if you need an S3 in your life is to either get the current S3 sedan or wait until the four-door gets its first facelift, probably sometime in 2017.
