Audi A5 Sportback:

The A5 Sportback has four framless doors and a long, tapering roofline, giving it a "coupé-like" appearance. It is designed to be "as emotional and elegant as a coupe, as comfortable as a sedan, and as practical as an Avant" according to Audi. While it shares many exterior cues with the A5 coupé, the Sportback's interior is actually more similar to the A4 sedan; although all A5 models have same platform as the A4, the Sportback is closer in design to the A4 than the rest of the A5 family. The Sportback has been described as "a sedan with the front end (including an identical S-line look) and taillights of the A5 coupe but the wheelbase of the A4", with the Sportback positioned more as the "designer's car" compared to the more conventional A4 sedan.

Early production models included 2.0 TFSI quattro (211PS), 3.2 FSI quattro, 2.0 TDI (170PS) with 6-speed manual gearbox and start/stop system, 2.7 TDI, 3.0 TDI quattro.

The A5 Sportback will be available with two gasoline engines or three diesel engines.

Audi A5 Mileage, Average And Fuel Economy:

The petrol version of Audi A5 is based on FSI direct-injection technology that was originally developed for the Le Mans 24-hour endurance race to deliver more power and torque, as well as enhanced fuel efficiency. Precisely the right amount of fuel and air are injected into the combustion chambers, enabling the engine to breathe more easily. It results in reduced heat loss and increased output, with around a 15% reduction in fuel consumption and significantly lower exhaust emissions. The company has also developed TFSI, with turbocharging or supercharging, which combines FSI® technology with forced induction, giving cars an extra injection of power.

The diesel version of Audi A5 is based on TDI technology marking a departure from the noisy, fuel-thirsty diesel engines of the past. And with this the company has continuously refined it, recently developing common- rail technology. Under this system, a series of piezo injectors use electrical charge to precisely control the amount of fuel injected into the engine. As well as reducing noise, this allows combustion to happen at a lower temperature, with less oxygen, which lowers emissions. Thus the Audi A5 models will give high performance with great fuel efficiency.
