The lucky dogs at Sweden's Sportbilen apparently got some alone time with a prototype for the upcoming Audi Q3 RS, and they were kind enough to film the experience and share it.

With a 2.5-liter five-cylinder turbocharged engine cranking out 300 horsepower, quattro all-wheel drive, and a comfortable seating for four plus room for your gear, we're looking foward to the Q3 RS. After all, it's more of a tallish hot hatch than a crossover, though its higher seating position and slightly larger size might find enough appeal in the U.S. market to justify small-volume sales here.

The best part of the video is the sound, so pop in those earbuds or crank up your speakers and enjoy.
