The Audi A5 Cabriolet model range are ready for the European dealerships, delivers start May 2009 with the UK a few months behind.
Top of the range is the S5 Cabrio offering 333PS from its turbocharged V6 (which is available only in the Cabrio S5) below which sit a comprehensive range of both petrol and diesel models including a 240PS 3 litre V6 TDI and a 3.2 litre 265PS petrol. Whilst the large, powerful engines are available right from the model introduction the lower power 2 litre and 1800 TFSI engines will follow on a few months after launch.
New to the A5 and S5 cabriolet are the LED rear lights, separating it styling wise from the roofed version. The S5 version comes with the now traditional aluminium mirror covers, deeper front spoiler and S badging.
Safety and practicality were watch words during the A5 and S5 cabriolet development, the end result is that head airbags and a hidden roll bar are standard. Split, folding rear seats allow large and awkward items to be carried even with the roof down. The Audi A5 and S5 Cabriolet offer 2 hood options; a normal hood or a heavier, more sound-proofed version for those who want a quieter cabrio experience!
