Why Hire Audi S5?

The Audi S5 is the performance-packed version of the rather identical A5 model, thus it may take you a while to distinguish it from its twin sibling. The characteristic slopping roofline and the muscular haunches at the bonnet remain unchanged for the up-spec S5 model. Thanks to the minor tweaks from time to time, the Audi S5 feels rather at par with its peers. The present iteration has remained largely the same over the years, though the blacked-out trims and an even more imposing front grille have taken the sporty DNA a notch further ahead. However, it is what is under the S5’s athletic silhouette that bestows it with an altogether different personality. For starters, the Audi S5 gets a potent twin-turbocharged V6 powerplant at its heart which delivers a healthy 350 horses at its peak instead of the 260 hp that you would get from an A5. In addition to a punchier powertrain setup, Audi’s reputed Quattro all-wheel drive system comes as standard on all S5 variants. The Quattro system together with the adaptive dampers perfectly complements the power extracted from the engine and allows the driver to handle tricky bends and corners with full confidence and ease.

However, the audi S5 is, by no means, a personification of old-school power. A comprehensive suite of electronic aids allows for various customizations according to the driver’s taste and driving habits. The exhaust roar may be a bit subdued while stationary, but it certainly gets aggressive as the car picks up pace. The impressive performance of the S5 together with its great practicality is what makes it appealing to various customers. There is plenty of space for the front occupants, though the rear passengers may struggle slightly with the headroom due to the sloping roofline. Nevertheless, the S5 offers plenty of boot space for both long and short-haul journeys, which in part can be attributed to its hatchback styling from the back. As with any other German offering of its league, the Audi S5 also offers plenty of features. The fully digital cockpit, massaging plus cooled and heated front seats, and adapted cruise control all work superbly in conjunction to swiftly transform this performance coupe into a comfortable cruiser out on the highways and motorways.

Aside from the different trim levels, the Audi S5 is available in different configurations/body styles as well. Despite the current S5 generation reaching the end of its lifespan, the coupe and cabriolet body styles of the Audi S5 remain a hot commodity in the rental as well as new and used car market.
