  • At first glance the Audi A5 may look familiar, that’s because it shares the same chassis design as the Audi A4 Saloon. However, the A5 isn’t competing against its saloon brother, but rather stiff competition from the BMW 4 Series and Mercedes C-Class Coupe. So in what areas does the A5 shine? Find out all my thoughts in this in-depth review.

    C-class isn't better (maybe it looks better but that's it). I've sold one after 2 months of ownership. It's not that fun to drive, the 2.1 diesel in c250d is very noisy, rear seats are very cramped, and infotainment system is a pain to use. Although it's very comfortable on motorways and it's very easy to drive.
    I'd say if you want a fun car get a 2-series or 4-series with a petrol engine (230i/m240i/430i/440i). If you want a comfy cruiser get the A5 with a V6 diesel and Quattro. If you want a good looking car which feels most luxurious then get a C-class coupe, but from my experience I suggest to avoid the rattly 2.1 diesel and rather get a petrol C300 (or, even better, a C43 or C63)

    • @carwow
      @carwow  7 лет назад +7

      Interesting to hear your experiences Dmitry! We're with you on the 2.1 and infotainment system though. Some say that the CEO of carwow just bought a C Coupe… and that it has a V8 in it and a stripe down it.

    • @d0718
      @d0718 7 лет назад +3

      The best thing would be to win this car on a competition then sell it and buy something better and more interesting. Turd of a car.

    How come this A5 has the flat bottom steering wheel? I can’t find it as an upgrade

    I really like you reviews Mat! I'd like if you review also the Sportback version of the new A5.
