A5 and S5 Wordpad version

Published Date: 26th Mar 2007

Audi strikes out in yet another new direction at the 77th International Geneva Motor Show (March 8-18) with the all-new Audi A5, a dramatically styled coupé combining four-seat practicality, 455-litre luggage capacity and an all-new driver-oriented sports chassis with a configuration that is an equally radical departure for the brand.

The first phase of UK models will feature a new generation 3.2-litre FSI petrol unit with 265PS which is capable of achieving 32.7mpg on the combined cycle and yet, with the help of 330Nm of torque, can power the A5 3.2 FSI quattro to 62mph in 6.1 seconds before the electronic governor cuts in at 155mph (where conditions allow).

In a break with Audi tradition, which normally dictates that the launch of the higher performance S Quattro model in each range is staggered, Geneva also hosts the world debut of the S5 Quattro, powered by a potent 4.2-litre V8 FSI petrol engine with 354PS and priced at £40,025 OTR.

Inside, A5 and S5 models combine space for four adults with up to 455 litres of luggage space in the metre-wide load bay, which is further expandable by releasing the split/folding rear seat back rest.
