New for 2008 Audi A5

The 2008 Audi A5 is powered by a 265-horsepower 3.2-liter FSI V6 engine. Power is delivered through a 6-speed manual transmission and Audi’s famed quattro all-wheel-drive system, with a 6-speed Tiptronic automatic optional. During normal conditions, quattro distributes torque 40 percent to the front and 60 percent to the rear, but can adjust the distribution to deliver more torque to the wheels with the most available traction. Technology includes partial LED lighting, an electromechanical parking brake, an all-plastic key and three-zone climate control.

Short Take

The base A5 coupe will be powered by the same 3.2-liter V6 engine found in other Audi models, though it will produce 265 hp. Audi also introduced the S5 performance version, which will be powered by a 354-hp, 4.2-liter V8. Both the A5 and S5 arrive in late fall with six-speed manual transmission; automatic versions go on sale about four months later.
