Audi A5 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2007–2012) — First Generation

The first-generation Audi A5 brought coupe styling to Audi's mid-size range, later joined by Cabrio and Liftback bodies. Here's what to expect from its engines, transmissions and equipment before you shortlist a specific car.

Audi A5 Engines and Transmissions

Audi A5 engine options run from an economical turbocharged four to a smoother six-cylinder. A Cabrio 2.0 MT pairs gasoline with a manual and front-wheel drive; the 3.0 S-tronic adds diesel torque, a robotic gearbox and all-wheel drive; the 3.2 CVT uses a variable transmission. Match the powertrain to your usual mileage.

Audi A5 Trims and Equipment

Equipment sits on top of the technical version rather than replacing it. The Coupe 2.0 S-tronic, for example, appears in Base and Luxury forms: identical mechanically, but differing in upholstery, interior finish, wheels and convenience features. Check Audi A5 trim levels individually, since options were often added per car.
