Audi A5/S5 Cabriolet Unveiled
Audi A5 Cabriolet
So Audi just showed us their newest incarnation of the A5 and S5 luxury sports sedan - a drippy-top convertible, which will supplant the A4/S5 Cabriolet. So let’s get to the purpose - what’s the difference between the criterion coupe and the new A5 and S5 Cabriolet? Quite a bit, actually…
Styling updates enter new rear LED lighting, sport seats with single flush interior, and the S5 Aluminum-optic exterior accents embrace front and rear diffuser blades, mirror housings, and four exhaust pipes. Oh, and they’ve full away the roof and replaced it with cloth, in holder you didn’t detect.
The A5/S5 Cabriolet uses new high-vigor steel to dwindle heaviness and amplify body stiffness, which is a frequent difficult with coupe-to-convertible sports cars. The wheelbase has been bigger to help with conduct and pester comfort by poignant some drivetrain and steering parts around, which also allows for a slash inside gravity, advance portion with the usage.
The leading changes for the A5 and S5 Cabriolet (other than the silky-top,) are the engines. You can still get the 3.2-liter V6 in the A5, but now you can also opt for the same 2.0-turbo engine vacant in the 2009 A4 which produces 211 horsepower (54 hp minus than the 3.2 V6, but 15 more ft-lbs of torque.) Unfortunately, you can no longer get the humbling 4.2-liter V8 for the S5 Cabriolet after the 2010 variety, but in its place for 2011 is a 3.0-liter Supercharged V6 producing 333 horsepower - 19 hp less than the V8 it replaces.
The A5 Cabriolet will obtain a 6-hurry Tiptronic transmission for the quattro AWD sculpt, a CVT for the FWD version, and the S5 will keep the 6-rate Tiptronic pending 2011 when the Supercharged V6 replaces the V8, then it gets a 7-pace S tronic transmission. A handbook transmission will be untaken for the S5.
Hint: There will only be one type year (2010) where the S5 Cabriolet will be made with the 354 horsepower 4.2-liter V8. After that, the Supercharged V6 takes over. This means that V8 S5 Cabriolets will be a partial magazine. Buy it if you can provide it, as you’ll have one of the few
