2009 Audi S3 gets S-tronic 7-speed twin-clutch The 2009 S3 and S3 Sportback will be getting Audi’s much-praised S-tronic 7-speed twin-clutch transmission starting tomorrow. Both models will get the S tronic twin-clutch transmission which quickens shifts and reduces fuel-consumption. Power for the 2009 Audi S3 comes from a 2.0 TFSI unit that produces 265-hp and 258 lb-ft of torque. 0-60 for the S3 comes in 5.7 seconds and 5.8 for the Sportback. However, with the S-tronic 7-speed twin-clutch the three-door S3 does 0 to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds. Fuel-economy is reduced to 28 mpg. The S-tronic twin-clutch will be available to order starting Oct. 1st for an extra cost of £1,450 ($2,610). Of course, it’s only available to the Europeans.
