Audi A5 Avant e-hybrid quattro S tronic

2026 Audi A5 e-hybrid quattro S tronic.

The 2026 Audi A5 Avant e-hybrid combines the practical proportions of an Avant wagon with a plug-in hybrid powertrain and Audi’s quattro all-wheel-drive system. It is presented as a new vehicle with a 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine featuring direct fuel injection and turbocharging, supported by plug-in hybrid electric vehicle technology. The result is a technically sophisticated drivetrain designed to bring electric assistance into a versatile five-door-style body format while retaining the flexibility expected of an estate car.

Power is sent through a seven-speed S tronic transmission, while the quattro system provides all-wheel drive. The published system output is 270 kW, with maximum torque listed at 500 Nm and a stated 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 5.1 seconds. These figures give the A5 Avant e-hybrid a strong performance focus, but its plug-in hybrid layout also makes it relevant to drivers seeking a more flexible alternative to a conventional petrol-only vehicle. The available information does not specify an electric driving range or charging time.

Inside, the cabin uses a leather and artificial leather combination with S embossing, complemented by sport front seats, electrically adjustable front seats and four-way lumbar support. Front seat heating adds everyday comfort, while the three-spoke sport leather steering wheel has a flat-top and flat-bottom design, multifunction controls and shift paddles. Anthracite matt brushed aluminium inlays and illuminated front door sill trims with S emblems provide a purposeful, contemporary finish.

The equipment list places a clear emphasis on convenience and connectivity. Auxiliary air conditioning, a convenience key and an electrically opening and closing luggage-compartment lid are useful features for daily use, particularly when loading or accessing the vehicle. The net partition supports practical cargo management, while the Avant body style provides a useful balance between passenger accommodation and carrying capability.

Technology includes Audi connect navigation and infotainment, Audi connect emergency call and service with remote and control functions, an Audi Application Store and smartphone interface, plus a phone compartment with inductive charging. Driver-assistance equipment includes adaptive cruise assist plus, lane departure warning with emergency assist, front emergency brake assist, a multifunction camera, traffic sign-based speed limiting and a standard speed limiter.

Exterior specification includes S line bumpers, black roof rails, dark window trim, black exterior mirror housings, a rear spoiler and privacy glass. Matrix LED headlights are fitted, while the car rides on 20-inch Audi Sport alloy wheels in a black metallic, gloss-turned five-twin-spoke design with 245/35 R20 98Y XL tyres. S sport suspension, red-painted front brake callipers and 18-inch front disc brakes add further visual and chassis distinction. The vehicle is listed with Euro 6e emissions compliance and is available in Geelong.
