I bought the car CPO in October of last year. I can’t say enough about how impressed I am with the overall performance. It’s peppy, quiet and very comfortable. After owning a BMW 440, a Infiniti Q50, and a Mercedes E350 I am sold on the Audi brand.

Well…here I go again with Audi. I owned a 2009 A5 coupe with nonstop oil consumption problems, and now I have a brand new 2022 A5 with transmission problems. It started leaking transmission fluid at around 700 miles and at 1100 miles it had to be towed to the dealership as the transmission has failed. Now I am waiting for them to get parts in to start the process of trying to remedy this.

I've had my sport back for a week. bought it as certified pre owned- got a good deal as its the end of the year, etc. I'm not sure why I was in the dealer for 5+ hours! You'd think that "old school" approach to car buying could be fixed by now. The one I opted for happened to have the "S" trim line and the "black optic package". Which, basically added a few trim pieces and a 3D B&O radio. ( I could have done without as the radio on the non-B&O is very nice for me. however this was the CPO vehicle in my price range, so I went with it) I agree with another consumer review, the car is a sports car in disguise. The Good: very responsive, sport suspension and sport mode transmission (along with other drive modes). A 4 door "sedan" with the versatility of the hatch back (which can tend to look weird but AUDI's is done very well). Lots of technology to play with. Coming from a Mazda CX5, I have a steep learning curve. I even had to call the Audi customer service because I could not figure out how to get "connected". Even with manuals and YouTube videos, I was clearly doing something wrong. Turns out a lot of the connectivity options and tech gadgets require a WiFi subscription- that is pricey. I'll stick to Apple CarPlay, as soon as I figure that out. Had the opportunity to car a road trip, 2 days into owning the car. It was a very pleasant drive, lots of room in the back for my 6 year old. He said it looked like a rocket inside. The bad: again agree with the reviewer(s). very limited storage inside. I'll likely use one of the cup holders for storage of keys and iPhone. speaking of iphone- there is a wireless charger in the console. which is probably great for some, but I think its a waste of the already limited space. and you can't turn it off. If you put your phone there to "store" it- the charger will engage and make the phone very warm/hot to the touch. I was also surprised that I could not connect wirelessly to Apple Play. The phone needs to be pulled in. No other real complaints. The car does everything very well. I didn't give the car a 5 star because of storage and WiFi annoyances.
Fun car, happy with purchase.

Overall I give it 4 stars. I tend to have high expectations when it comes to cars, and its difficult to find a vehicle in today's market that checks all of the boxes. This car comes close, with some minor annoyances. Pros: Great look, gets lots of compliments with the blue exterior and black optic package. Comfortable ride, great handling/acceleration, lots of room in the back for cargo. Fit/finish. Dealer was great to work with. Cons: ZERO storage up front. I went from a large SUV to this and truly didn't realize the amount of junk I keep in my car. The one small area in the center to store things has the wireless charger, so you have to keep it clear to use this feature. The glove box won't close if you put anything larger than a pair of sunglasses in it. Summer tires come standard on any appealing wheel choice, so I'll have to get a pair of all-seasons for the winter. Why Audi offers standard AWD and doesn't offer all-seasons is beyond me. Back seat leg room is meant for small children, middle seat is useless. Some paint chipping on the hood lip with less than 1k miles. Overall happy with the car, but will probably regret the purchase once I'm a few months into the payment.

34 mpg on a 52 Horsepower engine!

Anyone who knows a bit about cars knows that the more power the engine can produce, the less fuel efficient it gets. Audi/VW has really done well with their latest EA888 gen 3.5 engine with 34 mpg and up to 40 mpg on a perfect summer day. Audi is always the most extreme weather capable vehicle that money can buy and it does it in luxurious comfort and style. No other car maker comes close to the ease of car control in snow and blizzard conditions. Subaru is probably the only other company that can do this, but I always prefer Audi (and this is my 3rd Audi). On the side note, never try to go cheap on tires especially if you live in bad weather environment. The Michelin crossclimate 2 is the real deal, it grips so well on many inches of snow like it is a dry road. You still need to be careful on braking and this is where your foot sensitivity is better than relying on ABS. The car has good practicality for the style. A lot of length in the rear booth allows me to transport bulky stuff easily. This car also comes with a real spare tire and not just a run-flats or repair kit with no spare tire. IMO, this is what all cars should come with but they don't these days. My car comes with cold climate package that has steering heating and rear seat heating. The steering heating is really comfortable and has minimal hot spot. The seats are still made of real leather unlike many other brands (BMW). Unofficial customization. If you get a Carista OBD dongle, you can customize the car's display as well as turn off the start/stop function. I never use the start/stop function so it is permanently turned off and I still get 34 mpg easily. You can also turn off/on the fake engine noise. If you do that, you'll realize the sound of engine is practically absent. Another testament to the amazing engineering of this car. My car is out of warranty so I have nothing to lose. The car currently has done 88000 miles. Now some CONs: There is no touch screen on the infotainment but it comes with real buttons. No touch screen means navigating on Carplay is very primitive. The ground clearance is very low - less than 10 mm in some areas and the long front overhang does not help. So my car has been scraped quite a few times and the plastic shield underneath has scratches and cracks... The car does not have real fog lights. This is a real pain when driving in the dark on bad weather. So I ended up installing some aftermarket lights which helps a lot.

I have had the car for over a month and love it. It rides great and with 4 driver modes you can select how you want the steering response is to be. The cooled seats are great (I live in Florida). This is actually a sports car in disguise. The reason I say this is getting in and out is a bit of chore till you figure out what is best for you. I use the steering wheel as a support to get in and our. The back seats are for kids or really small people. Otherwise they are not useable. All of the electronics are great, but some are hard to understand, especially the lane keeping system. My only point of reference is my second generation Ford Fusion. It had the same kind of lane warning: vibrating steering wheel. However, on the Ford it was on all the time and worked at all speeds. On the A5 you have to set it up and then actually turn it on but depressing button of the end of the cruise control stalk and it only works above 40 MPH. The very best feature of the car is the virtual dashboard and the HUD (heads up display). All the information I need is displayed on the drives window and can moved up or down till it is just at the correct eye level. It is worth every penny I paid. I prepaid the three year lease and intend to buy it at the end of the lease. The price stated below includes a 6.5% sales tax. I also had to select the coupe designation since there is no sport-back listed above.

Sexy styling and top performance

Keeping it short and simple. First became interested in this car because of the styling, including the LED headlamps, dynamic rear lamps and the overall look. My lease was up on my BMW 330i and was considering getting a new one. After test driving the Audi A5 Sportback Premium Plus, I was sold. All the conveniences at your fingertips. It feels like you're sitting in a cockpit, ready to take on and master any challenging obstacle course. But I digress. PROs: sport handling, clean lines, modern interior, power-folding mirrors, fingertip conveniences CONs: antiquated Apple CarPlay (non wireless), non-touchscreen display, no pleasing "Home Screen" - only a confusing display of options like Audi Connect, Sound, etc, connectivity issues, lack of front storage for daily items, cumbersome controls on the steering wheel APP CONs: does not allow location monitoring while car is in motion, lacks remote engine start, lacks pre climatization, cannot sound horn remotely or flash lights

Basically, it rides like a 4 door sports car. The bucket seats make the interior feel like a cockpit. Smooth acceleration, hands easily. The media interface is easy to set up and use. I love this car.
Amazing Ride and handling

Quite impressed with overall experience. Overall experience is elevated with top notch quality of material, ambiance, Lighting and sound. Manual controls on A5 cabriolet could use some finetuning.
