PREPARE FOR PERFORMANCE

Barcelona. A city bursting with excitement, oozing history, and overflowing with vintage car vibes! It’s not just the picturesque streets and the lively tapas bars—it’s also home to the oldest cava shop in the world, where you can sip on bubbly while feeling like royalty. And let’s not forget the Catalonian marvel of “castells,” a captivating tradition where teams stack humans like Tetris blocks to build towering masterpieces. Who needs a gym when you can train to ascend a human tower?

Now, picture this: we’re zooming around this thrilling city in not one but two of Audi’s adrenaline-pumping performance beasts—the 2025 RS 3 and the RS Q8. The RS Q8, the sophisticated giant we all know and love, but the true star of the show? The RS 3—the pocket rocket that’s revving up the competition against the Mercedes-Benz A 45 S. Rumour has it that this little speedster has never set foot in India, but whispers are swirling that it’s finally looking to make its grand debut in the Indian market!

So, hold onto your hats and seatbelts because this isn’t just a test drive; it’s a full-throttle adventure through Barcelona. Who knew history, human pyramids, and high-speed cars could coexist beautifully?

2025 AUDI RS 3

Meet the Audi RS 3—the ultimate powerhouse of the compact sports car universe and your ticket to Audi Sport heaven. It’s the Audi answer for the Mercedes-Benz A 45 S and is a driving delight. It’s every enthusiast car driver on a medium budget’s dream car. With its latest upgrade, this beauty is like a sprightly gymnast primed for the Olympic stage, thanks to an optimised chassis that’s ready to dance on those winding roads whether you’re tearing up the racetrack, which I did at the Circuit Parcmotor Castellolí northwest of Barcelona, or just cruising through daily life.
