2024 A5 Sportback owner here. I have owned 3 Audi’s and this A5 is by far my favorite. I absolutely love this car.

[@obZen07]

2021 A5 owner here, best car I've owned. Zero issues so far and that hatchback is a game changer. Done a few IKEA trips without issues!

[@thebig12conference73]

I was thinking of getting an Audi S6 but the reason why I’m leaning to the Lexus ES is because you can put 87 gas as opposed to 91

[@elyesbenslimane7693]

How is the build? Any issues with the frameless doors? And how is the comfort for long drives?

[@obZen07]

@@elyesbenslimane7693 Great comfort, awesome for long drives. I have driven between SF and Portland like 8 times now and no issues so far. I think the inside is def a little smaller than A4, even tho 3 can sit in the back, its feels like it's only for 2 people. Great leg room, but not too much head room. If you're under 6'2" it should be fine in the back. Great reliability as well, no issues. Only had to do oil changes. There was a "recall" but it was basically one screw not tightening properly...took it to the dealership and they fixed it in 10 mins. I got the black optics pkg, so it came with sport suspension. This is fantastic for turning, no body roll. However it makes the ride a bit stiff. Personally for me it's ok, but if you're having bad roads around where you live, I wouldn't recommend the sport suspension. It very stylish in person, I have had several ppl ask me about it and compliment the car. Overall an awesome car if its just 1 or 2 ppl for regular use, if you're gonna have passengers in the backseat frequently I would prob get the A4. No issues with frameless doors or the sunroof, no leaks. Everything is working without any flaws and like Day 1. I use Apple carplay and it connects pretty fast every time I enter the car. Wish it had remote start stop tho.

[@elyesbenslimane7693]

@@obZen07 thanks for the reply. Sounds like you're enjoying the car. I'm waiting for the next generation to buy, and because the A4 will only be electric I am looking at the A5. I'm about 6'2 (coincidentally) but I'll mostly driving so back seat should be okay for kids. And yes, roads up here can be a pain so probably not going for a sport suspension. I might test drive the current model and see how it is and go from there...

New owner of the Audi A5 Sportback Premium Plus Package here! This vehicle checks all of the boxes for me, what a ride

[@CarConfections]

Congrats on your new Audi! Great choice

[@rtst_dj]

2023 owner here: I love this car so much. Definitely the perfect balance between performance and practicality imo.

[@2214drk]

we bought a 2019 A5 sportback to replace our Mazda CX5 last year. This car really does provide the best of all worlds. Fun to drive, easy to use and you can fit a ton of stuff in it. Don't waste your time on a 40 though. 45 Premium Plus at a minimum.

[@Gordo2347]

Thank you so much y’all are the best! ❤

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Excellent review as per usual!😸

[@Crypt0M0nkey]

Best looking car in segment. I own a 2021 s5.

[@michaelmiller671]

Liquor Barn!!!!! This always makes me smile.

[@HenryCalderonJr]

I think it’s cool, compared to the bmw that has lost its looks. Love that Audi still looks like Audi

[@canyonproductions7683]

Best looking car I’ve ever seen on a lot. I will have one by 50

[@jimf7654]

Per Car and Driver, the 0-60 for the 45 spec is more like 5.0 seconds. Plenty quick for a 4 cylinder.

[@trevorcearley927]

Keep in mind there is also storage on the left-hand side of the steering wheel. Really deep compartment that holds quite a bit.

[@philsa877]

Yes exactly! Glad someone in the comments section knows about the extra storage not mentioned in this video

[@nocturnaldreamland]

That's the block box 😉

[@zunain1001]

Great Review!

[@CarConfections]

Thanks!

[@holdensilverberg]

I drove it as a loaner, VERY smooth

[@HumbleBearcat]

Is AWD standard on the A5 Sportback models?

[@tommy13965]

This is the best looking sedan imo only wished they didn’t change the exhaust outlets to hdmi looking pipes, quad 4 inch pipes would look so good on it.

[@porfiriato84]

Thanks for saying it correctly.... Many people say "heads up" display but it's head up! 👍🏽

[@CarConfections]

That's right, a person only has one head haha

[@HenryRoss-wu4lo]

Audi A5 ❤

[@Splendid_Lad]

Still a gorgeous car inside and out. It’s aging very well.

[@lane5686]

This vehicle is gorgeously built inside out but the space is pretty tight though even when you sit alone. Nonetheless, this is a great city and highway cruiser, not so much long roadtrips because of how small it is.

[@muratisik6956]

Small compared to what? A Dodge RAM?

2024 Audi A5 Premium Plus Quattro AWD S-Line Black Optic Package Sportback Sedan!

[@bruhhhhmoment4848]

My mom has one, I used it when I had my drivers permit and was learning how to drive in it. Then I got my brothers 2017 Jetta se. It was a huge downgrade but it’s a nice little car I’m gonna mod Edit: it’s the coupe one with only 2 doors

[@darriontunstall3708]

It’s very nice, it needs more space

[@rahimi4762]

[@nunayobiznass]

Interior needs major updating

[@peterabbott5929]

Audi 5

[@milesv5352]

it’s a nice car, but the redesign is coming out next year… I think this designs has been around since 2016

[@blueb4829]

That has "SUV level of space?"

[@tiariksims623]

Beautifully designed cars but I hate the wheels they put in the A5 and S5. Makes the cars look like Hondas

[@jk5743]

Wait, there’s remote start?

[@jacquelineghigliotty6323]

Yes, through the app

[@al_mokrousov]

Looks like 2020

[@thebig12conference73]

Engineering background here the reason why the Lexus ES 350 luxury is going to be my next car is because you can put 87 gas I was looking at the other German rivals in the problem with: Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche or the American luxury cars like a Cadillac or a Lincoln is you need to put high octane 91 gas. The ES3590 won’t be mistaken for a Porsche, even if you get the F sport but at least you get 22-32- 27 combined on 87 gas. But I narrowed it down to this and the Audi S6

[@thebig12conference73]

japanwatchconnection Well, now that I live in Las Vegas, it is not as bad as California. Regular gas is about 4.00-450 and 91 gas is usually 80 cents more. Let’s do the math on a typical 15 gallon tank. That is .080 x 15 that comes to 12. So you are paying only $12 more but you are right the performance is great. The S6 and Es 350 F sport will come to about the same price anyways. Might as well get the Audi. You are not getting killed at the pump 16-26 mph 23 combined vs what 22-32 28 mpg combined so you are surrendering 5 miles per gallon x 15 only about an extra 45 miles but the performance, you are getting about 450 Ho bs 309. I jwould rather pay a couple of thousand more an F sport performance and handling is 49,000 about used. Heck I can get a 2021 Audi S6 with only 25,000 miles for $$52,000. For $3000 you are getting so much more you are getting a super car. Of course you can always get an RS8 but you ar expending stupid money probably $150,000 new

[@thebig12conference73]

japanwatchconnection I did a little bit of research on this actually the price for escort is 45,000 which is the same as the middle of the road luxury the base is 39000. The f sport performance and handling is 49000. I think the premium luxury is 52000. If you don’t need F sport; which you don’t, not for an ES, the. I say go with the luxury for 45000 and call it a day! You get plenty of luxury in the luxury model I have driven the F sport performance and handling top-of-the-line model and I have driven the luxury. Given the the choice;‘I would take the non D sport luxury. It’s a feeling luxurious Camry why would you want F sport on a Camry? Besides if that’s what your goal is then don’t get an F sport get an Audi S6 , Maserati, or a BMW M5 This is not designed for sports performance and I’ve driven the sports performance model it makes it feel a little bit sportier and you get 18 “ wheels, big whoop, not worth 45.000-49.000 base is also a good option at 39000 but I would might as well just save up a little more $pay $6000 and get the luxury Lexus experience. I’m German in Italian myself but I’ll be honest if you want sports performance then you go with German or Italian . If you want reliability economical , then Lexus is your best friend! Plus you get about 300 Hp I think 309 and a standard; time tested V6, on the Es 350 so it’s not like it goes 0.60 in 1 minute because you are driving a Flintstomes car. It goes 0-60 in 6.1 seconds so it’s not slow. Unless you’re driving for pink slips on Sunset strip I don’t feel the need to go 0 to 60 and under five seconds and I’m looking for fuel economy, 87 gas and reliability. If you take care of your Lexus , your Lexus can take care of you for 250,000 miles no problem. The other factor is I just got a job and I got to drive to Henderson from Las Vegas which is about 30 miles each way so 60 miles round-trip five days a week . That comes to 300 miles a week or 15,000 miles a year so the difference between 87 and good fuel economy 26 combined is better for me than driving a super ver like an AudiS6 that gets you an impressive 450 go but it is also 91 and 22 mpg combined. I’ll keep the Lexus, they can have the Audi.

[@johnnyray8468]

Should have 300hp by now

[@HumbleBearcat]

The 2.0T can accelerate to 60 in 5 secs per Car & Driver which is plenty fast with excellent MPG. But if that's not fast enough for you, you can opt of the S5 that makes 349 HP or the RS5 with 444 HP.

[@aussie8114]

No brake hold 🤔

[@jacquelineghigliotty6323]

? I have the 2024 A5. There's a brake hold button.

The interior looks like a Honda

[@mikevaldes9831]

i think you mean the honda’s interior looks like an Audi considering Audi has had this interior since 2017. honda copied the interior layout in 2022 with the civic.

[@OriginalYTBR]

Is that bad?. I mean the Honda name is legit in premium build quality. Not german crap that will break and I love german cars but they screw me every time!!
