The turbo four now squeezes out an additional 10 horsepower and 15 lb-ft of torque, for a total 305 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque.

I'm glad the changes are subtle, I do like the new digital gauges.

I like the new exterior, but I'm kind of ambivalent about the digital gauges. Nothing else besides that changed on the interior, I like the new headlights, awesome. Tail lights, I like them, they also moved the reverse lights. I would have expected this to be either in 2018 or 2019.

I take that back. I like the virtual dash and the extra HP/TQ. :)

What generates the additional 10 hp?? Is this a tuning change or hardware? Never have liked digital dashes...would always prefer analog speedo and tach.

Most likely tuning, the S3 is way de-tuned and you can easily extract another 100hp out of it.
