The RS 5 Coupé and RS 5 Sportback now combine the latest Audi exterior design hallmarks with the upgraded cabin configuration already adopted by the RS 4, bringing MMI touch technology based around a large central screen.
The twin-turbo V6 with its 450PS output and 600 Nm of torque continues to provide spine-tingling performance that is reflected in sub-four-second 0-62mph sprint capability.
Production begins in early 2020 with deliveries from quarter two. Prices start from £69,500 on both bodystyles, which will be available in RS 5, Carbon Black and Vorsprung trims when they open for ordering in January.
