Car A

Audi A5 Coupé

An AWD petrol coupé that blends quick acceleration (0-100 km/h in 5.6 s) with efficient-for-class consumption, the Audi A5 Coupé suits year-round commuting and weekend trips. Its two-door layout and 4-seat cabin limit family flexibility, but the 465-liter trunk helps on the road.
