Audi has unveiled their S3 Cabriolet much before its official debut at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show
The 2014 Geneva Motor Show seems to get exciting with the motoring giants gearing up to reveal their babies on the podium. But the unveiling of the Audi S3 Cabriolet, much before its launch at the Swiss motor show, is sure to raise the interest levels of many car enthusiasts. Audi is set to bring the winds of change to open-air motoring by launching their Audi S3 Cabriolet- a cabriolet version of their 2015 Audi A3.
Visually, the open-top four-seater packs style and open-air cruising into a small space; its just 4,430mm long, 1,790mm wide and 1,390mm tall and has a wheel-base of 2,600mm. Adding to its curves is a muscular set of aerodynamic trimmings, including a lower, broader front air dam and lower side sills, as well as S3 badging.
Like the regular Audi A3, the S3 Cabriolet is equipped with an electronic progressive steering wheel, which the car manufacturer claims to give a smooth drive on straight and twisty roads. The Audi S3 Cabriolet will feature MMI navigation, a high-resolution screen, touch-control, LTE connectivity and a sound system. Driver assistance and safety features such as adaptive cruise control, active lane assist and park assist will also be available. The interiors of the Audi S3 Cabriolet are draped completely in black. There is room for two adults in the rear, with an easy entry feature from the front seats. The car has a 285-litre luggage compartment which can be expanded by folding down the rear seat backs.
What makes the Audi S3 Cabriolet tick is a 2.0-litre TFSI turbocharged engine which produces a maximum power of 300PS and a peak torque of 380Nm. The open-top, four-seater car sprints to 100kmph in 5.4 seconds. The car manufacturer claims that the Audi S3 Cabriolet can accelerate at a top speed of 250kmph.
The Audi S3 Cabriolet is expected to be launched in the showrooms across Europe next year, with an approximate price tag of Rs 41.5 lakh.
