The AUDI A5 SPORTBACK (2009-11) 5DR SPORTBACK 2.0 TFSI SS EU5 180 6SPD is a premium five-door hatchback with the sleek, low-slung look of a coupé.

Five doors and a useful rear hatch make it practical for couples, small families and commuters who need everyday space but do not want a conventional estate. The 180-horsepower 2.0-litre petrol engine and six-speed manual suit drivers seeking a refined, engaging drive, while its premium cabin and distinctive styling give it a more special feel than many mainstream hatchbacks.
