Audi A5

Sleek and elegant German coupes are nothing new, though the A5 is the first of this size that Audi has built in a long time. It’s a good all-round package that comes close to matching the BMW 3-Series with a fine range of engines, a high quality interior and an enjoyable driving experience. It’s also a rival for the Mercedes-Benz CLK. As has become expected of Audi, the car is packed with technology – some of which can be seen and some of which can’t – living up to Audi’s slogan: “Vorsprung durch Technik”; progress through technology.
