What's New on Audi New A5?
Audi has pulled the wraps off the plug-in hybrid range of the A5 series, and it will now come with the suffix - e-hybrid. Offered in both sedan and Avant (estate) body types, Audi promises better efficiency and more driving range with the new PHEVs. Essentially a successor to the A4 range, the new Audi A5 was showcased some time back, and now we get to see the e-hybrid models.
Powering the car is a 2.0-litre TFSI engine that alone offers 248 bhp, while the electric motor adds an extra 141 bhp to the mix. Having said that, for the first time, Audi will be offering two power levels with the A5 series. This means you can get both the sedan and the Avant models in two states of combined outputs – 295 bhp (220 kW) and 362 bhp (270 kW). The more powerful version can offer a 0-100 kmph sprint time of 5.1 seconds, while the 220 kW option can do the same in 5.9 seconds.
At the heart of it, you have a new 25.9 kWh high-voltage battery pack fixed towards rear section of the vehicle. Compared to the previous 20.7 kWh unit, it’s roughly 45 percent higher now. Audi has also increased the regenerative braking performance with the A5 e-hybrid, increasing the car’s electric-only range to 110 km. Additionally, now you can go through the different levels of regen by simply using the paddle shifters. The A5 e-hybrid’s maximum AC charging power has been upped to 11 kW, which has resulted in a reduced 0 to 100 percent charging time of 2.5 hours.
Visually, the A5 e-hybrid models remain identical to the standard models and get similar features and equipment. The sportier A5 e-hybrid quattro with the higher power level comes as standard with the S line exterior package, black styling package, and privacy glazing – making for a particularly dynamic appearance.
The A5 e-hybrid quattro range can be ordered in Europe March 27, 2025, onwards, while deliveries are expected to begin from April 2025. In Europe, the prices for the PHEV A5 e-hybrid range starts from EUR 62,500 (Rs. 58 lakh approx.). As of now, there is no certainty on when the new-gen Audi A5 range will come to India, however, we do expect the e-hybrid models to eventually reach our shores.
Other Upcoming Audi Models are the E Concept, Q6 E-Tron, New Q3, New A6 and New Q5

car&bike Team | Apr 16, 20192020 Audi A5 Cabriolet Spotted Testing For The First TimeAfter seeing a slew of new Audi models being tested including the Audi A5 Sportback, the new refreshed Audi A5 Cabriolet doesn't come as a surprise. Unlike some of the previously spotted models which were completely camouflaged, the Audi A5 Cabriolet is wearing minimal covers (even lesser than the Audi A5 Sportback) which hints that changes in its design will be very limited compared to other models and majority of them will be in its face.1 min read
car&bike Team | Mar 31, 20192020 Audi A5 Spotted Testing For The First TimeThe face of the A5 for most of its part looks similar to the upcoming A4 sporting the identical grille and quite a similar bumper profile. The design of the headlamp too is familiar, however, the hood retains the same character lines with no changes at all. Coming to the side, the fenders and rear haunches are camouflaged but we expect minimal changes to their design which are likely to be done just to align with the new bumpers. The rear of the A5 is predominantly undercover. However, the design looks slightly related to the latest Audi models, specially of the sleek LED tail lamps and the rectangular exhaust pipes.1 min read
