So what's happening at the end of May in the Austrian province of Carinthia that Audi would care about? How about the 27th annual Lake Wörther Tour? Sure. What's that? Yeah, we've no idea. What we do know is that the four-ringed brand's revealing what they've buzz-worded "a sensational study" and what they've named the Audi A3 TDI clubsport quattro. The concept features a two-liter TDI engine delivering 224 HP and 331.9 lb-ft of torque. That's sports car quality power from a form factor that — well, has a bit of booty in the back if you catch our drift. And the purported performance numbers are definitely performance quality — a 0-to-62 of 6.6 seconds and a top speed of 149 mph. Nice. We like. Full speed ahead past the jump for the press release.
