The AUDI A5 SPORTBACK (2011-16) 5DR SPORTBACK 1.8 TFSI SS 170 EU5 S LINE 6SPD is a premium five-door hatchback with a sleek, coupe-inspired shape. It sits between ordinary family hatchbacks and executive saloons, offering Audi’s smart cabin feel with a more practical rear hatch. The S line trim gives it a sportier look. With a 170-horsepower petrol engine and six-speed manual gearbox, it suits commuting, longer journeys and small-family duties, especially for drivers who want style without giving up everyday usefulness. Its low roof and swooping profile make it less upright and roomy than some rivals, but the A5 Sportback stands out for its polished interior, composed drive and distinctive blend of hatchback access and executive-car image. mycarcheck.com recorded 164 look-ups across 64 different VINs; checked cars averaged 103,000 miles, around 9,000 yearly, nearly four keepers and a £5,900 average private-sale value.
