Room concept and functionality
Back to overviewThe new Audi A5 family is available in two body styles: the A5/S5 Sedan and the A5/S5 Avant. In terms of vehicle length, the dimensions of the Sedan and the Avant are identical down to the centimeter. With an overall length of 4.83 meters, this places them firmly within the upper mid-size segment. Compared to their predecessors, the new models have increased in length by 67 millimeters. The long wheelbase of 2,900 millimeters with short overhangs contributes to the long-distance ride quality and the generous interior space. The luggage trunk lid opens electrically and includes the rear window, making access to the luggage compartment considerably easier.
The Sedan and Avant measure 1.86 meters in width without mirrors and 2.10 meters with mirrors. In terms of pure body width, this is an increase of 13 millimeters, which primarily benefits the front seat passengers in the form of greater elbow room and more shoulder space. At 1,460 millimeters for the Avant and 1,444 millimeters for the Sedan, there is a slight increase in vehicle height, which pays off in the form of more headroom for rear-seat passengers. There is also an increase in comfort in terms of knee and legroom in both rows of seats.
The trunk of the new A5 Sedan offers up to 445 liters of luggage capacity – depending on the engine. It can be expanded to up to 1,299 liters thanks to the standard 40:20:40 folding rear seats. In the Avant, the trunk can hold up to 476 liters with the seats fully occupied and up to 1,424 liters with the rear seats folded down. The loading sill for both body styles is at a back-friendly 66.8 centimeters. The storage and luggage compartment package and an electrically operated tailgate are included. As an option, the tailgate can also be opened and closed using a foot gesture. The “kick” position is indicated by a projection light.
Depending on the engine, the new Audi A5 can tow up to 1,800 kilograms (trailer with brakes, on a twelve percent gradient). In the Audi S5, it is up to 1,900 kilograms.
