The Audi S5 Sportback combines a 362-horsepower 3.0-liter turbocharged V6, Quattro all-wheel drive, sharp styling, and the everyday usefulness of a hatchback. In this review, we look at the S5’s roughly $64,600 starting price and a fully loaded Prestige test car costing about $75,000, then put its performance, comfort, cabin technology, rear-seat space, and cargo flexibility to the test. The S5 earns praise for its engaging driving experience, supportive sport seats, daily drivability, and generous 22.6-cubic-foot cargo area, while its slow and complicated infotainment interface, piano-black interior trim, and optional Black Optics styling draw criticism. Is this practical performance Sportback the right alternative to the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe? Watch the review to find out.
