Audi A5 Sportback now available on Australian Showrooms

Audi A5 Sportback

The third model in its Audi A5 range after A5 Coupe and A5 Cabriolet – A5 Sportback has finally reached Australian showrooms. The five-door hatchback with an added bonus of a load carrying wagon has enough room for comfortable seating of four. Audi A5 Sportback is available in two engine versions of the 2.0 TFSI and the 3.0 TDI, with standard Quattro all-wheel-drive and S tronic for both. Power output for the 2.0 TFSI measures 155kW with peak torque of 350Nm available from 1500rpm to 4200rpm. While it gets from naught to 100 km/h in 6.6 seconds, it also gobbles up 7.5l of gasoline/100 km.

The more powerful 3.0 TDI gushes out 176kW of power with 500Nm of torque between 1,500-3,000rpm. The diesel motor can propel the Sportback from zero to 100km/h in 6.1 seconds and will consume 6.6 litres per 100km.

With high hopes pinned to its new A5 model in the Australian market, Audi Managing Director Joerg Hofmann foresees it as a volume-selling model for the A5 range.
