It has been ten years since Audi launched their line of luxury coupes. Since then, rivals have launched fierce competition, particularly in the form of the BMW 4 Series and Mercedes C Class Coupe.
For the latest S5, Audi have debuted a brand new engine in the form of a single turbo, 3.0L V6. They've also designed and built one of the best interiors we've encountered in a car.
In this video, we take the new S5 to one of our favourite coastal roads outside of Cape Town, to really stretch its legs.

I know I'm late, but I bought this car in America (Left Hand Drive) July of 2018. Brilliant Black, Red Interior, and I go to sleep at night dreaming about the next time I'll allow myself to take it out again. Named her after an old flame cause every time I get inside it feels so good!!

I watched every available video featuring the new Audi S5 before buying the Sportback version but this was the video I always returned to. Very arty and informative really enjoyed the balance. The presenters ‘just got out of bed look???’ no, I don’t think so more a laid back yet factual approach. Ciro de Siena is cool calm and collected, one of the best. Keep up the excellent reviews 👍🏻

Great video! Quick question, whats the difference in driving feel between driving in D dynamic or S comfort?

@timl1481 2 жыл бұрын

Dynamic makes the care more responsive, it stiffens up the steering & suspension, and causes the gear box to change up at higher revives. Whereas comfort mode softens up everything for cruising. Or put another way, dynamic: On my own on a winding road, comfort: On the motorway with my wife in the passenger seat!

@jerrychaseman452 2 жыл бұрын

@@timl1481 yes but in the Audi there are two settings. You can change the drive from dynamic to comfort. However you by pulling on the gear shift you can change the car from D to S. Therefore one can drive in dynamic mode but be in D drive or could be in comfort mode but be in S drive. I’m confused about the difference between the 2 modes

1:30 There are DSG transmissions on vehicles with more TQ than the S4/S5. The ZF8 choice has nothing to do with to much torque. It’s about drive-ability/weight/cost (initial&maintenance)/almost indistinguishable performance loss
