“Audi’s coupe is handsome, fun-to-drive, and oozes class and refinement. Quick on its feet and responsive in V-6 guise, the A5 drives as good as it looks. The beautiful interior has excellent ergonomics but a smallish backseat. All-wheel drive makes the A5 a foul-weather friend.” — Car and Driver

“It’s practical and comfortable enough for everyday driving with enough style and performance to make a statement.” – Forbes

“Beautifully sleek and beautifully detailed, the A5 cabriolet delivers the top-down style you expect from a convertible without compromising the everyday utility you must have from a car that can carry four passengers.” — Edmunds

“With its potent powertrain, head-turning looks, comprehensive features, seating for four and a choice of manual or automatic transmissions, the A5 definitely raises Audi’s overall image and style rating – and most likely will do the same for its sales numbers, as well.” — Kelley Blue Book

“A5 and S5 are premium coupes that do many things well, they have strong acceleration, capable handling, and the security of all-wheel drive. They’re not as outright sporty as the two-seat Porsche Cayman, but they are more practical and undercut it on price, making them a strong choice.” — Consumer Guide
