Official: Audi Applies Trademarks for New RS5 Cabriolet

While Audi never officially talked about the possibility of presenting a convertible version of its RS5 sports car, the idea has been circulating around the internet ever since the debut of the coupe.

But now we have concrete evidence that Audi will most likely go ahead and very soon introduce an RS5 Cabriolet to its lineup thanks to these official trademark fillings obtained by Carscoop.

The images provide us with a 360-degree view of the roofless RS5 (in facelift form, as you may have noticed) that will feature seating for four and the same electrically operated fabric top as the A5 and S5 convertibles, the refreshed versions of which made their world premiere in Frankfurt last week.

Senner Tuning Beefs up the Audi S5 Sportback

No comments

The crew over at Senner Tuning have pointed their guns on the pre-facelift Audi S5 Sportback with the release of a new package that aims to improve both the performance and styling aspects of Ingolstadt's liftback model.

Underhood, the S5's 3.0-liter TSI V6 gains a software optimization, a new air filter and a custom exhaust system, all of which do their part to lift output from 333HP and 440Nm to 445-horses and 530Nm (390.9 lb-ft) of peak torque.

IAA 2011: Audi Presents New A5 Coupe DTM Racer in the Flesh

No comments

Audi certainly has a rich history in the Deutche Tourenwagen Masters, the German touring car championship, more commonly known as the DTM. From the 1990 V8 quattro until today’s A4, the four-ring brand has raced only four-door models.

This is about to change as Inglostandt's new contender in the DTM is based on the A5 Coupe. Making its debut at the Frankfurt Auto Show this week, Audi’s 2012 racer was developed around three principles: maximum safety, 40% reduction of costs and an impressive bodywork design.

Project Kahn Spiffs up the Audi A5 Coupe

No comments

British designer Afzal Kahn has presented a new take on the (pre-facelift) Audi A5 Coupe. The tune starts with a matt pearl gray finish enhanced with a bodykit that adds R8-style front and rear vented bumpers, a new front grille finished in black with a red surround and a rear boot lid spoiler.

The final touches come via the quad tail pipes, tinted windows, 21-inch matt black lightweight alloy wheels and a lowered suspension that gives the car a more aggressive stance.
