- The 2025 Audi A5 replaces the outgoing A4 sedan, and the company has now released its starting price.
- While we’re still waiting on complete pricing, Audi confirmed the new A5 will start at $48,995, making it $3600 more than the A4 it replaces.
- Both the A5 and the sportier S5 are slated to arrive at U.S. dealerships before the end of this year’s second quarter.
Audi’s lineup has been reshuffled and renamed so many times during the past couple of years that most people need an automotive Rosetta Stone to decipher it. Be it the odd-versus-even naming structure or the demarcation between sedans and what Audi calls Sportbacks, you’re forgiven for being confused. At least the new 2025 Audi A5’s pricing is easy to understand.
Audi has announced that the new four-door A5, which looks like a sedan but features a discreet hatchback, starts at $48,995. That’s $3600 more than the A4 sedan it’s replacing, which is priced at $45,395 to start. We’re still waiting for Audi release pricing for the rest of the 2025 Audi A5 lineup as well as its sportier counterpart, the S5.
The new A5 is pricier than the A4, but the extra cash gets you more car in terms of power and space. The A5 is longer, wider, and taller than the outgoing sedan, and the wheelbase has been stretched by roughly three inches for extra legroom. Under its hood, the new A5 features a 268-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that’s assisted by a 48-volt hybrid system. Meanwhile, the S5 is motivated by a turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 that packs 362 horses.
Both the new A5 and S5 are scheduled to arrive in U.S. dealerships before the end of the second quarter of this year. We expect Audi to release a more detailed pricing breakdown before they arrive.
