The all-new Audi S5 Coupé revealed
The new Audi S5 Coupé combines dramatic design with the performance of a sports car. The completely redesigned, turbocharged 3.0 TFSI engine for the Audi S5 Coupé offers powerful performance: high power, ample torque, spontaneous response and a sonorous sound.
From its 2,995 cc of displacement, the V6 TFSI produces 260 kW, which is 15 kW more than the previous engine. A constant 500 Nm of torque is available from a low 1,370 all the way to 4,500 rpm. In its combined cycle, the new 3.0 TFSI in the S5 Coupé consumes just 7.3 litres per 100 kilometres – a CO2 equivalent of 166 grams per kilometre. Fuel consumption has dropped by five percent compared to the predecessor engine.

When viewed from the side, the new Audi S5 Coupé exhibits a characteristic, wave-shaped shoulder line. The sweeping line with pronounced bulges over the wheel arches is a visual cue to the quattro all-wheel drive. At the transition from the front wheel arch to the A-pillar, a three-dimensional trim element in matt aluminium silver with an integrated S5 logo underscores the supreme sportiness of the new Audi S5 Coupé.
The rear end sports slim LED rear lights with dynamic turn signals. A distinctive spoiler in the body colour on the luggage compartment lid improves the aerodynamics. Integrated into the boldly shaped rear bumper is a flat, black honeycomb grille. The matt twilight grey diffuser with vertical struts and a matt aluminium silver clasp frame the two dual chrome tailpipes.
The new Audi S5 Coupé also features cultivated sportiness in the interior. The clean design with its strong horizontal orientation makes the spaciously designed interior – which seats four – appear even larger. With a volume of 465 litres, the luggage compartment of the S5 Coupé offers everyday practicality.
Standard equipment
New trim lines provide numerous customization opportunities, for both the interior and the exterior. Besides the base model, there is also the sports line which offers additional equipment to enhance the sporty look of the vehicle.

Audi offers the S line exterior package for a particularly dynamic appearance.
