Not sure those pictures are of an S3 Sportback though.

Bizarre how the Sportback has the same engine but only two exhaust pipes...

....But you are looking at a 'Photoshop' published by AutoExpress - Not exactly reliable. I don't expect that the quads inclusion is reliable either. We'll have to wait to see real photos.

They're actually Audi Press shots, but of an A3 Sportback. I just didn't notice.

....My mistake then.

The images just help to show how the A3 and S3 body styling differences are so lacking. (IMO)

Audi have been very lazy with the styling on the both exterior and interior. It looks like a bigger version of the A1.
