Overview

The 2016 Audi A5 Coupe makes for an excellent contender in the midsize coupe. With two trims on offer, the 2016 Audi A5 Coupe has a base MSRP of $40,500 competing directly with the Mercedes-Benz C 300 Coupe, BMW 430i Coupe, and the Cadillac ATS Coupe. Only a 2.0L turbocharged Inline-4 engine is offered, mated to a 6-speed manual transmission. There is also an optional 8-speed automatic transmission available. Together, they produce 220 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 6.3 seconds, the Audi A5 Coupe maintains a combined fuel economy of 26 MPG. Audi offers the A5 Coupe in more than 14 stunning colors, with the Sepang Blue Pearl being our particular favorite.

Buying Advice

As the A5 Premium Plus offers the perfect balance of performance and luxury, we recommend this trim out of the two. On top of that, standard features include heated front seats, keyless ignition and entry, driver memory functions, and a Bang & Olufsen sound system along with 14 speakers, etc.
