Audi A5: More spy shots!

Saturday, October 28, 2006

We found more spy shots of the Audi A5. A must see!

Two doors, chunky proportions, an all-new platform and V8 power mark out Audi's A5, now caught testing in production guise. The coupe will wade into the CLK and two-door 3-series market in 2007.

The A5 took a bow in treacherous conditions at the Nurburgring, as its new MLB chassis is honed for sign-off. The 2+2-seater is spun off the next-generation A4 platform, and runs a wide range of petrol and diesel engines. Expect a price around £25,000, when sales begin in summer 2007.

This model will spawn a replacement for today's Audi cabriolet, which will also be badged A5 when it arrives in 2008.
