yes, the RS4 B9.5 (FL MY 2020) has already the MIB3.
But those genius in Inglostadt had the great idea of upgrading again the hardware from my understanding. So MY20 is MIB3.0 let's say, while MY21 is MIB3.1.
It doesn't change a lot (nothing at interior lvl) but it appears to be faster, it has an additional cockpit view (Standard, RS, *another_one*), the Sirius thing mentioned by @RS4John, and it permits to open Apple Car Play/Android Auto without having to connect the phone physically to the car.
The other annoying thing I'm afraid of, but have to check, is that they may have eventually changed the hated head-up display graphic with the lap timer always on when in RS mode (pls see the other topic).
I asked to my local Audi dealer and no upgrade are possible from early communications.
I'm not a geek, and the reason I bought this car is not the Audi Media System (which I believe had its high with the MIB2+ however). While driving I completely forget about infotainment.
But in 2020, selling a 100K Euro/GBP with a piece of hardware+software that cannot be upgraded by the customer (OTA) or at the dealer, neither paying for it!, with a product life-cycle of less than 12 months it's not acceptable. We don't ask our cars to be Teslas, but this is a shame.
