All of the Coupés and Cabriolets in the A5 line-up are offered with Audi’s beloved quattro all-wheel drive and are sold in three complimentary versions, each of which targets its own specific clientele. The entry-level version comes with a 220-hp 2.0L four-cylinder turbo, followed by the S5 and its 333-hp 3.0L supercharged V6. The thunderous RS 5 Coupé and its 450-hp 4.2L V8 is a recent addition to the family.
