Interior
The interior layout, fit and finish
Audi is renowned for classy, minimalist interiors that are exquisitely finished, and the A5 Coupé doesn’t disappoint. Everything you touch feels classy and rock solid, and it beats the Mercedes C-Class Coupé for quality.
The driving position is tough to fault too, with plenty of seat and steering wheel adjustment and a comfortable driver's seat that provides plenty of upper-back support, plus four-way electric adjustable lumbar support as standard. Big, clearly marked buttons and dials make it easy to adjust the automatic air-conditioning, which also comes as standard on every trim.
As touchscreens go, it's relatively well designed, with an intuitive operating system. There's no doubt, though, that it's more distracting to use when you're driving than the older system – or indeed the infotainment systems in the rival BMW 4 Series and C-Class Coupé.
You get plenty of standard gadgetry, though, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone mirroring, wireless phone-charging and a DAB radio. It's worth considering the optional Comfort & Sound Pack (standard on Vorsprung trim) if you enjoy listening to tunes on the move, because it gets you a great-sounding Bang & Olufsen sound system.
