Audi discontinues A5, S5, and RS5 two-door models for 2025

Audi recently announced changes to its 2025 lineup, with notable absences being the coupe and convertible versions of the A5 model, including the S5 variants and the RS5 with a fixed roof. This decision marks the first time in decades that Audi will not offer a coupe or convertible in its lineup, following the discontinuation of the TT and R8 models in recent years.

Looking ahead, Audi has hinted at plans to potentially introduce new models to fill the gap left by the TT within the next five to 10 years. Additionally, there are discussions about revamping the naming system to distinguish between gasoline-powered and electric vehicles. As part of this potential change, odd-numbered nameplates like the A3 and A5 would signify gasoline models, while even-numbered nameplates like the A4 and A6 would indicate electric models.

For the 2025 model year, the A5 Sportback remains as the sole A5 model available from Audi. It comes with updated standard and optional features, including a HomeLink transceiver as standard, rear USB ports in the Convenience Package, and the inclusion of the MMI Navigation Plus Package in the Premium Plus trim. New packages such as the S Line Plus Package and Convenience Plus Package are also introduced for certain trim levels.

– A5 Sportback 40 TFSI Premium: $47,595
