The AUDI A5 SPORTBACK (2016-19) 45 5DR SPORTBACK QUATTRO 2.0 TFSI GPF SS 245 EU6 VORSPRUNG STRON AUTO7 is a premium five-door fastback: sleeker than a conventional family hatchback, with useful rear doors and a roomy boot. In the UK market it sits between mainstream family cars and executive saloons, appealing to buyers wanting style without sacrificing everyday practicality. Its 245-horsepower petrol engine, automatic gearbox and quattro all-wheel drive promise brisk, confident progress in varied weather, while the high-spec Vorsprung trim brings an especially generous comfort and technology feel. It suits commuters, couples and small families who cover regular journeys and value refinement, although running costs are likely higher than for an ordinary hatchback. In mycarcheck.com checks, two look-ups covered two cars, so figures are indicative: average mileage was 32,000, annual use 8,000 miles and private-sale value £21,500. It offers a more versatile alternative to a BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe.
