The A5 Cabriole
When Audi’s Italian head of design, Walter da Silva, designed the Audi A5, he described it as ‘a rhythm of lines’ and the
most beautiful car he’d ever built. The A5 Cabriolet has exactly the same qualities, with the added benefit of open-top
driving. Its lightweight roof opens in just 15 seconds and closes in 17, and the optional head-level heating and solar
heat-reflecting upholstery ensure that it’s enjoyable to have the roof down, whatever the weather conditions.
Aside from the obvious benefits of a cabriolet, there are other features that are equally appealing. It accelerates from
0 to 62mph in just 5.6 seconds, on the way to an electronically limited top speed of 155mph. And there’s a choice of
impressive engines, the 2.0 TDI, 3.0 TDI, 3.2 FSI and S5 quattro®, which demonstrate our trademark fuel-efficient
technology. Technical ingenuity and elegant design combine to make us rather proud of the A5 Cabriolet.

All A5 Cabriolet petrol engines feature FSI®direct-injection – a unique Audi technology
originally developed for the Le Mans 24-hour endurance race to deliver increased
power and torque as well as enhanced fuel efficiency. The way it does this is, in theory,
very simple. Precisely the right amount of fuel and air are injected directly into the
combustion chambers, enabling the engine to ‘breathe’ more easily. At the same time,
electronics monitor the engine load and adjust the injection process. The result –
reduced heat-loss and increased output, with around a 15% reduction in fuel
consumption and significantly lower exhaust emissions. Ideal for the buyer who
wants an athletic, exhilarating drive without the drawbacks of excessive fuel costs
or high emissions.
All diesel engines from Audi are known as TDI. This impressive technology was originally
pioneered by Audi in 1989, marking a departure from the noisy, fuel-thirsty diesel engines
of the past. Like its FSI petrol counterpart, the TDI diesel engine is designed for power,
performance, low fuel consumption and emissions.
All A5 Cabriolet TDI engines are based on the common rail system. Here, fuel is stored
and kept at constant pressures of up to 1,600 bar, ready to feed a series of highly accurate
piezo injectors, which control the rate and point of injection.

It’s the technology that has given Audi the edge on the racetrack ever
since it was first introduced over 25 years ago – a technology that
delivers ultimate control whilst enhancing the athletic characteristics
which make the A5 Cabriolet so thrilling to drive. It’s called quattro®
permanent all-wheel-drive. The principle is simple: in the same way
that four brakes ensure better deceleration, four permanently-driven
wheels deliver better acceleration and road-holding, pushing or
pulling the car as needed, for a driving experience that’s both dynamic
and safe. In the A5 Cabriolet, asymmetric-dynamic torque distribution
continuously distributes drive power between the front and rear axles
depending on weather conditions, road surface and gradient, which
increases flexibility for an enhanced, more dynamic drive.
