The most powerful four-door sedan in the A5 line-up is going to arrive in the country on 9 August 2021 in the form of the RS5 Sportback. Most of its design is reminiscent of the mid-80s Audi quattro and Sport quattro. With the RS5 Sportback, Audi has gone the extra mile in developing a sports car with exemplary performance that stands out from the A5 in every aspect.
This new RS5 Sportback has a distinctive front end with the signature hexagonal-shaped single-piece grille while it also gets RS5-spec Matrix LED headlights. Besides, there are side skirts, bulged wheel arches, rear diffuser and quad exhaust tips.
Inside, the cabin of this high-performance sedan bears the typical Audi cockpit design but comes with ultramodern equipment. The black and grey interior has some RS exclusive touches such as steering wheel, sports front seats, steel pedals, race-car inspired instrument cluster user interface and more.
The RS5 Sportback is powered by one of the most powerful six-cylinder engines - a 2.9-litre twin-turbo V6 petrol motor capable of producing 444bhp and 600Nm of torque. It comes mated to an eight-speed which also channels the power to all four wheels via an all-wheel drive system.
