AUDI A5

New Audi A5

The New Audi A52012 model is a stunning looking car. Audi recruited former Alfa Romeo stylist Walter Da-Silva to head up its design team, and the A5 is the first of their efforts; based on this we are in for some gorgeous looking cars in the future. The looks are a mixture of traditional design cues, with the aggressive gaping front grille that looks like it could swallow pedestrians whole, to more flowing surfaces, and the daytime LED running lights reminiscent of the R8. It is a cohesive design that has more than a little Bentley about it. The coupe is based loosely on the underpinnings of the new A4, thoroughly reworked for improved dynamics, and it is a vast improvement over previous Audi’s, with real delicate poise and balance, rather than the traditional nose heavy dead steering feel from past cars. All of these point to a car more than capable of beating its established rival, the BMW 3 Series.

Audi A5 2012

The 2.0 TFSI is the entry into the A5 range, having replaced the smaller 1.8 petrol that was available for a short period. Despite being the cheap engine size, there is plenty of pull to be found, as the 2.0 Turbo engine has been seen in several VW group applications (notably the Golf GTI) and is here with a mild rework developing either 180 bhp or 211 bhp – which is plenty of power for this car. It is worth mentioning that the 2.0 comes with front wheel drive as standard, you can spec up the higher 211 bhp version with Quattro four wheel drive should you require it for a price premium , but the front wheel drive feels quicker as the Quattro system does add about 100 kgs in weight. Automatic gearboxes are available in the 180 bhp version, but strangely not the 211 bhp model. The 2.0 will give you fuel consumption in the low 40’s mpg, and is the same for either horsepower level, and is available in either the coupe, sportback or cabriolet convertible versions.

Audi A5 TDI

The 2.0 TDI Diesel is a new edition to the range, with the motor already seen in the A3 and A4. The common rail diesel engine is good for 170 bhp, and has a good slug of mid range torque that produces a 0-60 time of just over 8 seconds and a top speed of 140 mph, all while giving a very respectable combined figure of 53 mpg. With these statistics, and an entry level price, the Audi A5 TDI is set to be the new volume seller in the A5 range. Order books opened from January 2009, with the first customer deliveries expected February / March 09, and we’ve got some great discounts already. The 2.0 TDI diesel is available in either the coupe, sportback or cabriolet convertible versions.

The 2.7 TDI is currently the mid range diesel engine available, and the cheapest V6, has more than enough power for the car with levels at 190bhp but you drive this car using the mid range pull rather than revving it as it comes with a huge 295 lb/ft of torque. Currently it’s only available with Audi’s multitronic (read automatic) transmission, no manual exists. Like the 2.0 petrol, it comes front wheel drive as standard, but there is no option to pay extra for Quattro. If you want a diesel, manual gearbox and 4 wheel drive then you will have to take a look at the 3.0 diesel version. It’s worth noting that the 2.7 gives about 44 mpg, only a couple up on the 2.0 litre petrol’s 42 mpg, so think carefully before buying. If you want a big relaxed drive this is the one to go for, if you like revving a car to get the most out of it, it’s the petrol version for you. Either way, the 2.7 is available in the coupe, sportback on cabriolet convertible versions.

The 3.0 TDI diesel is a properly fast car, with a noticeable improvement in performance over the older 2.7 engine. The 3.0 Diesel gives a substantial 240 bhp and a whopping 369 lb/ft of torque which translates to a good shove in the back when you need it and a 0-60 time of 5.9 seconds, all the time giving a combined fuel consumption of 42.9 mpg, the same as the 2.0 Petrol version. The Audi A5 3.0 diesel has the Quattro drive train as standard on all models, and is available with either manual or the multitronic gearbox, and if you’ve got the money, the 3.0 is the model of choice and is available in the coupe, sportback on cabriolet convertible versions.
