Hmph, very interesting, if true about that 272 hp. That's 200 kW in metric terms and represents a 36% increase in power over the 147 kW TFSI 2.0 litre.
Let's say we apply the same increase percentage in torque (as a very very broad rule); 280 Nm plus 36% = 380 Nm...

Now 380 Nm sounds a bit much but I'll be blooming surprised if torque is less than 365 Nm.

This S3 is looking promising, really promising! I want one - always have.
