2009 Audi A5 Overview

Introduction

Perfectly elegant and aggressive all at once, the A5 is Audi's two-door, four-seat luxury sports coupe.

The A5 is powered by a 265-hp 3.2-liter V6 engine featuring FSI direct fuel injection, mated to either a six-speed manual transmission or a six-speed automatic with Tiptronic and available paddle shifters. Quattro all-wheel drive comes standard, along with 18-inch alloy wheels, leather upholstery, automatic climate control, satellite radio, Bluetooth wireless connectivity and Audi's Multi Media Interface (MMI). Standard safety features include six airbags (front, side-impact and side curtain), four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes, electronic stability control and a tire pressure monitoring system. Options include a S line Sport Package, Bang & Olufsen audio system, voice-activated navigation, adaptive cruise control and Audi Side Assist.

For 2009, the Audi A5 carries over with minor standard equipment and option adjustments. An auxiliary input jack is now standard, and the new Audi Drive Select package includes an adaptive suspension and dynamic steering system.
