The model

Read full review

The Audi A5 Cabriolet is one of the quietest and classiest four-seater drop-tops in its price range, with certainly the finest finished interior. That interior isn’t as user-friendly as the BMW 4 Series Convertible's, though, plus the 4 Series is similarly comfortable and more enjoyable to drive.

The trim

See full equipment

Bigger, 19in alloy wheels, sport suspension, more aggressive styling, matrix LED headlights and a sports steering wheel are among the additions when paying extra for S line trim. Unless you love the look, though, we wouldn’t bother, because it pushes up the price considerably.

The engine

See full engine specs

The 201bhp 40 TFSI engine is the Goldilocks version of the A5 Cabriolet (not too hot; not too cold). It has enough power to best a similarly priced 420i BMW 4 Series, plus it costs considerably less than the equivalently specced diesel and 45 TFSI petrol.
