Audi RS5 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2010–2012) — First Generation
The first-generation Audi RS5 offers V8 performance in two distinct forms: the fixed-roof Coupe and the open-top Cabrio. Your choice centres on the driving experience you want, alongside the equipment fitted to the individual car.
The 4.2 S-tronic pairs a gasoline V8 with a dual-clutch transmission and all-wheel drive in both Cabrio and Coupe form. This Audi RS5 engine rewards using the rev range, while the transmission can handle everyday shifts automatically or let you select gears yourself.
When exploring Audi RS5 trim levels, distinguish the powertrain name from the equipment specification. The Cabrio 4.2 S-tronic has an equipment configuration called Base, but optional features can make individual cars different. Check the seats, infotainment and parking aids fitted to any used example against your priorities.
