Audi debuts the RS 3 Sportback in Singapore, available now
With new design and performance upgrades, the compact top model Audi RS 3 Sportback, which represents maximum performance, has become even sportier. After its upgrade, the Audi RS 3 has an assertive front design with a hexagonal Singleframe with a striking border and a voluminous rhombus-pattern grille, which emphasises the dynamics of the compact sports car. Image courtesy of Audi. Along with redesigned daytime running lights, the headlights also accentuate the car's performance and for the first time, allows drivers to choose between three additional daytime running light designs in the MMI touch display. Like the headlights, the tail lights also feature a new graphic where arrows dynamically light up from inside to out with the coming home/leaving home function embodying the progressive design. The expressive exterior is accentuated by the RS-specific exterior colours Kyalami Green and Kemora Grey, the new metallic paints Ascari blue and Progressive Red, and for the first time, Daytona Grey in a matte finish.

The standard contour and ambient lighting illuminate the new design features such as the storage box in front of the flatter-designed shifter, the centre console with cup holders, and the doors. There's even a night-time feature where a light source in the door panel backlights hundreds of lasered rhombus shapes of various sizes, which dynamically light up when locking and unlocking the RS 3.

Joining the already standard features of the 12.3-inch Audi virtual cockpit plus is the new rev counter, which prominently displays the revolutions per minute in the centre of the instrument cluster. There are also displays for power output, torque, g-forces, acceleration, and lap times. Powered by the legendary 2.5 TFSI engine from Audi Sport, the Audi RS 3 is able to accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in 3.8 seconds and can reach a top speed of 290km/h. Depending on the Audi drive select mode chosen, you can now make the RS 3 more agile earlier and in a more controlled manner. When the coefficient of friction is low, the interaction of these systems also ensures increased stability. Image courtesy of Audi. Image courtesy of Audi. Image courtesy of Audi. Performing even better in bends, the RS 3 helps to avoid understeer at the entrance to the corner, and turns in more willingly thanks to its fine-tuning and brake torque vectoring. With the finely dosed brake interventions on the inside wheels, the compact sports car follows the corner's radius more precisely, allowing you to accelerate the RS 3 sooner to steer it through the bend at higher speeds.

Forum: New bridge to be completed on schedule while ensuring safe access to promenade
Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox We thank Mr Tan Siak Hee for his letter ' Why must construction of public bridge be stopped for sports events? ' (July 29). The Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) has called for a tender to design and construct a bridge connecting Marina Centre to Bay East Garden. Targeted for completion by 2029, it will provide pedestrians and cyclists direct connectivity between the city and East Coast. While specific works along the waterfront promenade will be paused to ensure public safety in the lead-up to or during key events held in and around the Marina Channel where large-scale preparation works and crowds are expected, the construction works along the other segments of the bridge can continue and will not be affected. For the annual F1 race, the temporary suspension of works along the promenade fronting the F1 Village is crucial for a safe and effective set-up of event infrastructure and operations around the Marina Channel. Given the large number of visitors expected in the area, a temporary pause of works for this segment of the bridge will facilitate a smoother and safer pedestrian flow during the race period. The appointed contractor will continue to work on other segments of the bridge to ensure its timely completion.
