Used 2021 Audi A5 Hatchback Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
The 2021 Audi A5 is offered as a two-door coupe or convertible or as a four-door hatchback called the Sportback. Each body style offers three trim levels: Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige. Most come with a turbocharged 261-horsepower four-cylinder engine (called 45 TSFI), a seven-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The exception is the new 40 TSFI version of the Sportback, which has 201 hp. Audi also sells the higher-performance S5, reviewed separately.
Which A5 trim does Edmunds recommend?
The Premium Plus hits the sweet spot. You get all the goodness of the base Premium trim, along with extras including upgraded headlights, heated steering wheel and additional leather interior trim. Premium Plus also adds adaptive cruise control and parking sensors among other desirable driver aids.
