Audi has updated its A5 and S5, in my eyes the A5 has always seemed like that 20-year-old person but is super mature, you can never tell which side it’s on. That, however, is also the party trick that it has up its sleeve, it blends in wherever and with this new one the A5 continues where it left.
The exterior looks include some sporty accents, the honeycomb grille is now flatter and wider with ventilation slits above the grille that Audi say is reminiscent of the classic Audi Sport Quattro from 1984. A bold blade forms the lower edge of the bumper, which features larger air inlets. A bold blade forms the lower edge of the bumper, which features larger air inlets, a new sill on the sides and a diffuser insert with trapezoidal tailpipes. All body and engine variants in the range roll off the assembly line with Matrix LED headlights with LED rear lights featuring dynamic turn signals, as standard. Each model; the standard, S line and S models, will all have different unique designs according to the model you choose.
The Tech is something that Audi has highlighted with the update A5 and S5. The MMI system is updated and slightly bigger screen at 10.1 inches. Audi Connect comes standard will all models and is there to make life a lot easier and safer for the driver. It can enable immediate and online connectivity to Audi’s roadside assistance and emergency call centre at the press of a button, from within the car. This allows access to emergency towing, ambulance, police or fire brigade support. Which is an extremely useful piece of tech to have in a car.
