Audi RS5 (2011) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 27 June 2011 10:00

Converted to the RS5 cause – 27 June 2011 What on earth is Ben Pulman and the rest of the office on? Glance through the comments below and you'd think none of us like the Audi RS5. Nothing could be further from the truth. Fact is, the RS5 has rather split opinion. Those with the words 'road tester' somewhere on their ...

Audi S5 Sportback (2010) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 31 August 2010 10:00

Audi’s massive model expansion continues apace, and while Ingolstadt is busy offering up a plethora of new shapes and sizes (A7 Sportback, Q3) it’s also busy enhancing its existing models. The Audi A5 Sportback seemed a little odd when it was introduced in 2009, but it’s best to think of it as an exciting version of the A4 saloon. And ...

Audi RS5 (2010) CAR video road test

Phil McNamara, 23 April 2010 17:01

The Audi RS5, one of the most exciting prospects of 2010, has been driven by CAR. With 444bhp, a 4.2-litre V8 petrol engine that winds up to an 8500rpm redline, and four-wheel drive, Ingostadt¹s new coupe looks to have the ammunition to take on BMW¹s sensational M3. There¹s barely a cigarette paper between their 4.6sec and 4.7sec 0-62mph sprints (it¹s ...

Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 TDI (2009) CAR review

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 27 July 2009 11:01

Even though Audi is seemingly hellbent on producing a different model for each and every one of its 100-year history, you’d be forgiven for questioning the imposition of five-door hatchback status on anything quite as pretty as the original A5 Coupé. There is, however, method in this ostensible madness because, with Saab’s 9-3 hatch now defunct and BMW’s 5-series GT ...

Audi A5 2.0 TDI Cabriolet (2009) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 09 March 2009 12:26

While we’ve all been fussing and fawning over the new Audi S5 Cabriolet, it’s not actually that relevant – just 250-300 are expected to be sold in the UK each year. Instead it’ll be the 2.0-litre petrol and diesels that’ll take 80% of the (hoped for) 5500 sales, split 50:50. It’s the 2.0-litre diesel we’ve tried here, because it’s the ...

Audi S5 Cabriolet (2009) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 24 February 2009 19:48

The Audi bandwagon moves on and its latest model is the new A5 Cabriolet. At one end of the scale you can have it with a goody-two-shoes 2.0-litre TDI (complete with stop/start technology), and at the other end is the rather rapid S5 tested here. In the switch from Coupe to Cabriolet, the S5 has ditched the 4.2-litre V8 for ...

Audi A5 2.0 TFSI Quattro (2008) CAR review

2.5

Glen Waddington, 25 December 2008 23:35

Audi’s dinked the A5’s old 1.8-litre base engine, and brought in this 2.0-litre turbo, that kicks off the range in 178bhp front-drive mode for £26,150. There’s also this 208bhp version, tested here with Quattro four-wheel drive. Great-looking car, the Audi A5. Is it great to drive too? The A5 is more than just a chopped-down A4. Take a peek behind ...

Audi S5 7-speed S-tronic (2008) CAR review

3.5

Tim Pollard, 03 June 2008 15:30

Audi has just about the most bewildering array of transmissions of any car maker – and it’s about to get more confusing, with the launch of a twin-clutch version of the S5 coupe. We’ve just driven the seven-speed S tronic S5 to bring you this first CAR review. Across its burgeoning range, Ingolstadt now offers manual transmissions, Tiptronic automatics, CVT ...

Audi A5 3.0 TDi (2007) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 13 July 2007 02:13

Haven’t you driven the Audi A5 before? We have, but only in S5 guise, and not on UK roads. Back in April we drove the 354bhp V8 but that was Audi’s attempt to steal a little limelight from the BMW M3; now we’ve got behind the wheel of the 3.0-litre diesel. Audi hasn’t been in the big coupe game for ...

Audi S5 (2007) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 26 April 2007 01:20

Have I missed something? How can we be reading about an S5 when we haven't even had an A5? Because Audi knew BMW was going to launch its M3 this spring and wanted to spoil the Munich firm's thunder. So it decided to launch both the A5 and its hot 354bhp S5 spin-off at the same time. The £39,725 S5 ...
