The 2025 Audi S5 Sportback.
-
The new Audi S5 is fit with a 362 hp, 3.0-liter turbocharged V-6 paired with a dual-clutch transmission rather than a conventional gearbox.
-
The S5 features 11.9-inch and 14.5-inch displays aimed at the driver, and another available 10.9-inch screen ahead of the front passenger.
-
The S5 corners flatly and predictably, and is capable of hanging tenaciously onto corners with plenty of grip and barely a whiff of understeer.
-
Accelerating robustly and accompanied by a subtle-but-present exhaust note, the S5 Sportback covers zero to 60 mph in just over 4.0 seconds.

The Audi S5 Sportback is a satisfying and attainable salve against the current rash of status-quo SUVs.
