About the Audi A5

Drawing inspiration from a coupe, the Audi A5 combines style with practicality by extending its sloping roofline and lengthening the wheelbase. Proven quattro® all-wheel drive technology offers a variable torque split that has the ability to intuitively send power to where it's needed, providing improved stability across a variety of road surface conditions. Every model is powered by a potent yet efficient 2.0-liter TFSI® direct-injection DOHC four-cylinder engine which produces 261 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a responsive seven-speed S tronic® dual-clutch automatic transmission, each trim level adds proven performance to your daily commute. You'll make a memorable first impression thanks to its S line® exterior with pronounced fender badges, side sills, and bumpers. Athletic and able to adapt to your daily life, this is an A5 that's difficult for the competition to match.

What's New for 2026

Following a complete redesign last year, Audi made a couple of small changes to the A5 for 2026. One of these was the name, which last year included the word “Sportback”, and this year doesn’t, although the design that inspired the original name remains the same. 2026 also comes with redesigned MMI menus for simpler and faster menu navigation. Lastly, there is a new steering wheel with a physical scroll wheel to replace the touch controls from last year’s model.
