The new Audi A3 made its debut at the Geneva Auto Show and aftermarket developers are now starting to introduce goodies for the compact. We are here to show you what German tuner ABT has to offer to the fresh A3.
ABT is known for developing complete kits that also target the tech side and come with gentle visual mods and this pack, which uses the AS3 designation, is no exception. The vehicle received a front bumper with a lip, a revised front grille, new side skirts, as well as a fresh rear fascia that hides two double final mufflers.

The tuner has also introduced a set of DR lightweight alloy wheels, which use a dynamic design and can be ordered in an 18- or 19-inch size, a coilover suspension that brings the car closer to the road, as well as beefier brakes that use 345 mm rotors.

The ABT AS3 will also be fitted with engines mods, but these are still in the development phase. Thus, the 2.0-liter TFSI turbocharged four-cylinder petrol is taken form 200 to 250 hp, while the 2.0-liter TDI will develop 200 hp instead of 170 hp.
