2020 Audi S5 Sportback I Travel in Style !

Some would say the A5 Sportback is a bit redundant seeing as how the regular A4 is essentially the same car converted to a hatchback. Those people are also saying a more practical A4 is the Avant, so there’s no reason for Audi to sell this body style variation that overlaps with models that have been around for decades. All that we have to say is that we appreciate the folks from Ingolstadt for giving customers plenty of options to choose from. As the saying goes, variety is the spice of life.

The second generation of the A5 model line has been updated in 2020 with elements of the new design language from flagship models to highlight the distinctive body style. The all-new MIB 3 infotainment system enters the full model line which includes the A5 Coupe, Sportback, and Cabriolet, and the S5 Coupe, Sportback, and Cabriolet.

S5 models are equipped with a 3.0-liter TFSI engine that delivers 349 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque, allowing S5 Coupe models to sprint from 0-60 mph in 4.4 seconds (Sportback 4.5 seconds, Cabriolet 4.8 seconds). The 3.0-liter engine is mated to an eight-speed Tiptronic® automatic transmission that is well suited for the low-end torque of the V6.
