Always liked the A5 sportback but this facelift looks superb! 👌
Loved the introduction. Cheers from Italy
Traded in my 2019 Golf R line for this very model in White.. Absolutely love it with the 2 litre petrol and 7 speed Auto box. Looks stunning with the black Sport Pack accents and wheels. Oozes elegance and style.
Great review! Love my 2021 A5 sportback Tfsi 45.
Nice review, beautiful car. 35Tdi more than enough. Stunning in black or Daytona grey with black pack. I love this style of interior also. Actual knobs and switches instead of all touch screen. Ripping the soul out of cars now sadly.
Man, i loved this video! I grew up on Saabs and you nailed it. I just leased this and i feel ok about it. 😊
Intro was lit👍
Great review... keep up the good work ..👍
Great review! I just bought a 2019 with less than 30, 000kms or less than 18,000 miles on it (kms or miles depending where you live), accident free and in beautiful shape plus warranty left for 1 year( plus another year warranty from Audi as it is a Certified pre-owned), pick up in a few days as I wanted the back windows tinted like this car. 😊
I agree I love my S5 Sportback
.
Thank you for this review Nobby, I'm looking to get a new AUDI and this really helped
Love from my heart
Great review nobby .
Hi from Boston I just got my 2021 A5 45TFSI in Turbo Blue. Only had for 1 week and really love it.
enjoy that new car smell!
Excellent review, collecting mine on Tuesday same spec but in Turbo Blue, got it up north demo model, working out at €41000 with VRT saving 17k from list price. After looking at this I'm even more excited!
Such a great feeling getting a new car!
Mark great review as always agreed with that at that price point driving aid such as blind spot detection etc should be standard.
I know! I have this car and when I found out it didn't have blind spot detection standard I was aghast lol.
Love from Malaysia ! Great review , Keep it up good job 👍🏻
Audi is just all about quality , details ! Would definitely get one this A5 in future !!!
Thanks! 👍
Nobby On Cars you’re welcome 😉
Great review. Thank you ✊
Glad it was helpful!
Waiting to take delivery of my 2021 S5 Sportback, ordered it in Mythos Black Metallic, premium plus, sport package, black optics, can’t wait to be behind the wheel
You won’t regret it, I have a5 1.4 Tfsi version! That’s fast now imagine S5!
Did you purchase one or went with the lease?
@@sunshadow9704 purchased, took delivery finally in November, such a beauty
@@richardbland9660 Good. But I must say, you are first person I know who bought Audi A5. 100% of people around me do lease. May you explain why you decided to buy vs leasing this very vehicle?
Thanks for the review ¡ This A5 is just what I'm looking for, though maybe in green ;-)
Nice 1 Thanks for the advise
Would love the back window to actually roll down, collapsable handles, and the diamond stitch seats on the A5. Would kill for that combo
Go Nobby!
Hi Nobby. Excellent review as always. Got an arteon over this 2 years ago because it has a bigger boot, more rear seat space and all the safety equipment as standard on the r line version. A similar specced A5 would cost about €65 grand. Got to admit the A5 does look better though. Keep up the good work.
R Line is gorgeous! Both expensive cars to be fair.
Nobby On Cars no s line pack for 2020 model in the us
AMAZING !!
Really smart car and your video quality and editing is getting more and more sophisticated, nice one Mark 👍🏾
Personally I like analogue dials
A5 sportback my DREAM❤️❤️❤️👍😎😎
I'm getting one for 18th birthday😎
I drove a 2021 A5 sportback as a loaner from Audi while my turbo got replaced in my A3. I honestly really enjoyed the A5. It was my first experience with a virtual cockpit and the Apple CarPlay was convenient (I prefer Google Maps over the Audi navigation through the MMI). The only underwhelming thing about the car, IMO, was the acceleration. I chalk this up to the A5 being a heavier and more full size sedan compared to my A3, which giddy-ups when I lay it down in S-mode. The acceleration was not a real negative though, and I'd see the A5 as a practical family sedan with many of the comforts you'd come to expect from a modern Audi luxury car.
All that and they look great too!
@@NobbyOnCars that they do! The A5 has a great design. I like the more aggressive front grill and light design, which looks even better in a darker body color.
do you know if it was a 149hp or 190-205hp or even more? @@NeonDemon88
Could you review the one with the V6 engine. I want to hear its sound..
Would you advice it for long journeys?
Great Review 👍
Footy Ferrari thanks
Great intro,. Spot on about letting the car do the talking, Video captured the car well. Plus lots of useful info
Glad you enjoyed it
Lovely car.
Is this the Audi A5 Sportback Edition 1 and on a full tank what is the range in Miles. Thanks.
I had a 181 for a few years and loved it but the older 148hp TDI wasn’t great, especially with the laggy 7 speed auto. I like the facelift but my driving suits a phev, so let’s see what the next gen has to offer.
Got an A5 as lease company car coming in, i was very much on a low budget due to company limitations but i plan to do some aftermarket upgrades, its is only a 30 Tdi standard 136 hp but a stage 1 tune can pump it to 185 hp for just +/-300 euro. Only picked business package and carplay with interior lightning package and then there was no budget left 😊 the black package can be done by wraps de-chrome, as the windows and black mirrors. I am really a sucker for the looks of this car. Never thought I was going to get it as a company car. Very exited. i picked this car even over a full option CLA 250 e
damn 135hp to 185hp thats good, so if i get a 149hp I can possibly hit 200?
Stunning looking motor 👌 just not got it under the bonnet for the price it is 😔
Beauty and Beast in one
Thx for the review! I wanted the A5 so bad, and in the end I bought, 2017 though. I thought the same, about S line, that its a must, and 3 zone climate, alcantara s seats, even virtuella cockpit, mmi, navi, s Stering wheel, Matrix lights, but shit, I get more and more frustrated when I see what more This model can have. When I looked to buy, if it has this, it doesnt have that and vice versa...gonna try to pack it more. The thing is that prices are very very different, based on the equipment, and very hard to find used, fully, fully equiped with all that car can have.
It can take a very long time to find the spec you want when used. The options list can also be endless but probably only a former dealer demo will have the most options ticked
May I ask have you reviewed the Arteon as I torn between that and the A5 ? Looks like you get more standard equipment on the Arteon
Not yet, hoping to have the estate in the new year. If there's more as standard, I think I'd go VW.
The dilemma here is not just another VW car to choose from, but another Audi! You can spec a 40TDI A6 Quattro with options for the same price as the A5 40TDI Quattro. And some of the options on the A5 are way more expensive. If you want MMI Plus navigation and the Virtual Cockpit it's €4K on the A5! It's €2.2K on the A6. The A6 has the newer tech, it's a newer Audi model, it's a class up, bigger and more luxurious. So what would make you chose an A5 SB? Maybe the looks? A more nimble car? I'm struggling here to come up with reasons!
Oh and the APR is also lower from Audi on the A6! 2.9% for the A6 and 3.9% for the A5
it's all about the look. If you don't care about it, you wouldn't understand.
Koreskalp yep I was stuck between this model and the A6 like the A6 interior more but that a5 looks so beautiful I had to choose it
A6 is just boxy and plain, sure on sportline it’s a bit more tarty, but won’t win any beauty pageants, which is why people buy A5, it just has killer looks and Audi ratchet up the extras, greedy but people will still buy them, cause they just look way better. TBF sportback is way more practical than a saloon in terms of load carrying…
It's all about age and character. If you struggle to understand why choosing the A5 then you're not for it trust me. No disrespect meant in this comment. Peace ✌🏻
In the UK this is equivalent to the Edition 1 spec. S line doesn't have some of the mentioned features e.g. Blacked out trims, different Alloys, no flat bottom steering wheel
It does have the flat bottom steering wheel 4:50
There is a virtual cockpit but in the premium plus
I barely comment but VERY GOOD video
No AC in the back? For that price?
COOL
Looking at buying A5 sportback Excellent review thank you .Music at start is cool who is it ?
Let me check
@@NobbyOnCars not a big deal mate just thought it was good 👍
Why would you buy one? Wouldn’t lease be more practical option?
Mine is a 2017 and I have the virtual cockpit and apple carplay. You cant gun the A5 down for these when the particular car that you are in doesn't have these extras. Other than that its a good review of the car.
I hear you but point is, at 60k, they should be standard.
Is this due a facelift? There are some very cheap lease deals about for the A5 Sportback!
Cheap deals. Wow.
Today in USA , A5 prestige cost at least 875$ -900$ per month. I am taking about the lease.
20 inch wheels need to get the adaptive dampers
Audi are great to look at. But as usual for price point of the car there is so much stuff that should be standard you have to pay extra for ! Some of it you wouldn’t even notice ! Will they ever change????
I got the same one lool, even with the one way klimacontrol instead of 3 way :(
So the Irish spec car is different to the UK one? If you look at the configurator for this it all looks very different to this car.
Happens a lot!
@@NobbyOnCars Ah right, that's news to me! :)
How would you rate this in terms of a daily driver as compared to something like Volvo XC60?
S60 no? Sportier, a bit smaller.
ruclips.net/video/ba3xS7G5geg/видео.html
I'm new to all the specs so please bear with me! So I've learned that S series is supposed to mean sport right? Then how is it that even in the A series, they not only have something called SPORTback, but also an "S line" within the A series?! Also what is the difference then between an A5 sport back and the S5 sport back?? Also, which year has the 5-seater, 2021?
S-Line is a trim spec. S is not as detailed as S-Line. Sport back is just the physical design of the car, it’s a sloping boot / roof essentially. S5 is a more powerful version in the A5 body style. Think of a comparison between a Golf and a Golf GTI as a basic way of describing it.
Wow, I'm actually looking at this actual car for sale at the minute 😳 torn between that and a Golf R 2020, 2 very different cars I know 🤔
Lines of this are gorgeous... Golf R models are fetching very strong money currently. You’d buy a new GTI for the same money
Thumbs up for referencing the Destiny's Child song.
Which market is this car for? There are so many differences in it from the ones in US
Ireland
Any plans to review the new A3 mate?
Next few weeks!
Own one.... exactly same as the video with pan roof. After owning a 2014 a5 sport back and having nothing but issue after issue and never ending shit drive, I decided to opt for the new one. Exactly the same. First major pothole and the car never drives the same again. Weak as butter in a microwave 🤦 straight trade in now for a 5 series bmw. Don’t get me wrong the car ain’t bad, but just a typical Audi A5 weak build...and the back seats are piss poor for room. No room for a taller person at all 🤷♀️
Great video man, getting 2021 a5 coupe s-line late jan, I wish it was only costing me 52G, add almost 18. Dub based Kerry lad tho, you might review it ;)))
Sounds delish, fair play to ya!
Did you buy A5 or went with the lease?
@@sunshadow9704 Bought it ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@jimikenny8405 Great, but why did you decide to purchase instead of leasing? Wouldn't you be bored in 3 years? Maintenance, etc.?
@@sunshadow9704 Mid life crisis 😋😋
How is the comfort and insulation? Would you recommend for daily use?
Great car yes, would happily drive one myself.
@@NobbyOnCars thank you
Is this car Ibis white or glacier white?
Glacier 👍🏻
Stunning looking car on the outside and I torn between this and the VW Arteon
The Arteon really is a stunning car at the front... overall, the Audi is prob the better looking but only just.
The virtual cockpit should be standard.
Hopefully will be on 2021 models
God no, looks great but just think how much they would ask to fix/ replace that. No thanks, I'd take proper dials everytime.
It is in the uk
Just ordered a edition 1 and it’s standard in the uk across the range
Or you just add it for like 450 Euro
Lovely car, just watch out for bag buckles or rings near that brushed aluminium trim 🙄
I configured my perfect A5, with all the lovely trimmings included and it came to about €78,000. Am I put off by that price for what you get in the car? No. Can I afford it though? No!
Maybe I could get it on finance or a leasing deal. The wife wants it too, so having her blessing is half of the battle won. I just need to work and save my ass off now.
Man maths 😍
Is s line and premium plus the same
No, not in Ireland anyway
Lack of virtual cockpit is a major off put :( is the arteon still in production ? I thought they stopped :o
They literally just facelifted the Arteon!
@@podge5555 I'm happy to hear that as it's an awesome car ! I was in a VW dealership before Christmas and they said it was being phased out...well they were wrong ! 😅
Mark Dillon : that salesman should have been fired lol 😆
@@podge5555 haha 😂 arteon is a very nice car, kind of like a nice budget bond car 😁👍
Mark Dillon : ha sure is.... I was close to getting one last year but went for another Audi A4 instead
The car should and CAN have the blind spot monitoring and the other options, but the guy/gal who made the configuration chose the s-line and visual options rather than the functionality…. In non s-line spec the car would be a lot better
Is the ride harsh on those 20” wheels?
S-Line always sits on the more firm ride side of things but it’s not terrible.
@@NobbyOnCars thanks for that 👍🏻
Are those 19” or 20” rims?
20
Can you get ventilated with the S seats?
In some Audi models yes but A5 I’m not sure.
Not in an s5
The rear windows 🧐...
Wait, you drove the front wheel drive version? Why?
can only review with what I've been given!
Never really been a fan of Audi, although this one is pretty smart I have to admit. Have owned a few VW’s in the past and could be tempted by the spec of this car. No good as a family vehicle though, as only two seats in the back.🙂
Chris Blay this is not a family vehicle
Great objective review. Stunning looking car but it is too skimpy on spec for the price, a bit all style and no substance. N
A bit more spec and it would be a great all rounder. Looks absolutely savage though!
This spec is a Mega version of the A5
It’s unfair how only EU A5 is getting D-Cut handle
I'm 12 I already drove a BMW when I'm 13 I will buy this car or a better looking futuristic audi
Agressive exterior styling, S-line exterior and interior, black optics package, panoramic sunroof…. And the weakest diesel available, no virtual cockpit, the default climate control, probably no auto-hold either (90£ option). Honestly, this is the perfect car to show off to the neighbors, but will make you cry when you are remembered it is not a fast car 😢
Can’t choose this or a g20 bmw
ruclips.net/video/duGdVZVT5QQ/видео.html
I am on a dilemma aswell. Which one did you end up going with?
@@abadam6649 don’t go bmw. I went 22 s5 sb
For those whoes crying for virtual cockpit.There people like me that doesnt like it ,it just to much for the car ,Car must be a car with real speedometer and not like in games.Some oldschool must be there.Whats next ? ,a virtual steering wheel ,that you must use touch screen to steering ?Some tech are welcome but whens to much its to much.Sory got bad Eng
I think needles can be cool but for the money involved in this car, maybe some would expect/want digital. Your English is super!
Irish s line, rip off. Get one in GB all the goodies as standard
Wow the Irish version climate controls are stripped and no cup holder in the rear. That’s deff not rihht
Karl pilkington !?
Thank fuck (excuse me language) they are using physical controls for the heating. My C8 a6 is pissing me off.
Buttons should be here to stay
Really like your reviews but that’s one overpriced car.
Is this the budget Carwow channel?
Yes! Instead of a team of 20, I'm a team of 1!
@@NobbyOnCars you do a great job really!!
AUDI no need to have any promotion or commercials because theirs cars are so good without having to promote anything,.
not sure Audi think the same, they do a lot of advertising.
This is FWD????
It is
@@NobbyOnCars what a shame, is there a Quatro version of that car?
@@masterzxd3023 Not in that output but yes.
The review is excellent however the 42 second intro is really annoying.
skip to 43 seconds so ;)
Uk spec is so much better😂
Good car apart from the appalling ride and pedals so offset to the right, they could be in the Tory party.
Pedals comment made me chuckle
58000 and no virtual cocpit....wtf.....
This looks like an rs5
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Vw Arteon Looks also very Good maybe a little Bit better than audi a5 sb but… it is a vw and Not an audi. Thats the difference which makes u think Audi a5 sb looks better than a vw Arteon
What maniac doesn’t spec their car with a virtual cockpit.
S line, with its super hard suspension, with an underpowered tractor like diesel.. never understood why Irish people flock to these mismatched cars from audi and bmw.
you take a car that costs more than 50,000 EUR and then you take the cheapest air conditioning to make more money about 2,000 EUR which horse you have to be 🤦♂️
