The new Audi A5 has been revealed with the sporty two-door at Audi’s Ingolstadt home. There is slightly very small difference in the conventional A4. The grill of the A5 is a bit lower and wider, and the outward crease above and below headlights add muscle to the car’s nose.

The petrol unit is a 2.0-litre TFSI with powerful outputs of 188bhp, whereas there is a choice to pick 2.0-litre or 3.0-litre TDI diesels with an ultra-variant being the most efficient model in the range. For the 3.0-litre diesel engine, the engine performance is increased up to 22% due to less weight, more aerodynamic design and improved engine specs.
