Audi A5, Is It The Right Car For You?

There are lots of reasons to choose an Audi as your next vehicle. These cars are essentially the Apple products of the car industry. They look great and have an immense level of brand recognition. If you ignore the fact that they’re expensive to maintain and probably won’t last as long as some other vehicles on the market, they’re a fantastic choice. Specifically, you might want to think about buying an A5.


What’s the difference between the A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, and so on? Well, the greater the number the larger the car and that also does mean that it packs in quite a few impressive features including fantastic performance capabilities. The A5 is the mid range option that will fit a variety of different budgets and suit the needs of countless. So, let’s dive in and explore what makes this car a strong choice for purchase.

Different Models

There are three different A5 models to choose from including the Sportback, S-Line and the Black Line. This is just about the style of car that you want. For instance, the Black Line comes with all black features including the badge on the front of the car. It’s a flashy way of saying you have a little more cash to spend on a car that’s going to depreciate in value so fast it will make your head spin. 

The Specs


There are a few specs you need to know if you’re taking one of these for a spin and considering a purchase. You’ll get an MPG of 57.5. That might sound great but do be aware this will drop if you dare to put the air conditioning on through the summer, change the tyres down from the top of line ones it comes with or are driving through the city. However, if you’re mainly driving on motorways, you’ll find that you’re regularly just under 60MPG. Particularly if you take advantage of the cruise control. 


It’s quite fast too, hitting 62mph in just 8 seconds which means that you will be able to have fun with this vehicle on empty roads or country lanes depending on how brave you are. You can even turn off the traction control and switch up to sports mode for an experience that is definitely not for the faint hearted. 

The Entertainment


Finally, it’s worth mentioning the entertainment system. This car comes with a standard touchscreen setup with Apple Play or the Android equivalent. That means that you can control everything without ever needing to touch your phone. It’s important because 2022 changes in driving law state that if you even think about picking up your phone while meandering through a Mcdonald’s drive through you could be charged a small fortune. The stereo system is also perfect for blasting any out of date music you like and annoying the kids in the back or the neighbours. 


We hope this helps you understand whether or not an Audi A5 might be the right choice for you. Remember, if you’re buying new you can customise your vehicle and ensure it includes everything you want while also getting the design choices right at the same time.
