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 with a plug-in hybrid powertrain and quattro all-wheel drive. Its four-cylinder petrol engine uses direct fuel injection and turbocharging alongside plug-in hybrid electric vehicle technology, giving this A5 a broader range of operating modes while retaining the confident traction associated with Audi’s quattro system.

With a combined output of 270 kW (367 HP), the A5 Avant e-hybrid has the performance credentials to match its understated design. Audi quotes 500 Nm of torque and a 0–100 km/h time of 5.1 seconds. The seven-speed S tronic transmission is designed to keep the power delivery smooth, while the quattro layout provides all-wheel drive capability. S sport suspension, 20-inch Audi Sport alloy wheels and red front brake calipers add a distinctly dynamic character to the specification.

The Avant body style brings a useful degree of everyday versatility without abandoning the clean, low-slung appearance of the A5 range. Black roof rails, dark window trim, privacy glass, a rear spoiler and black exterior mirror housings contribute to the car’s purposeful visual treatment. Matrix LED headlights provide advanced lighting technology, while the electrically opening and closing luggage compartment lid supports convenient loading.

Inside, the cabin pairs sport seats with leather and artificial leather upholstery featuring S embossing. Electrically adjustable front seats, four-way lumbar support, front seat heating and front seat ventilation help tailor the driving environment, while the flat-top and flat-bottom three-spoke leather steering wheel with shift paddles reinforces the car’s sporting intent. Matt brushed aluminium inlays and illuminated front door sill trims add contrast to the predominantly dark interior treatment.

Technology is a major part of the A5 Avant e-hybrid’s appeal. The specification includes the MMI experience pro package, Audi connect navigation and infotainment, smartphone interface functionality and a phone compartment with inductive charging. An optional Bang & Olufsen 3D Premium Sound System is also fitted, alongside a dashcam and a panoramic glass roof with switchable transparency. Driver assistance equipment includes adaptive cruise assist plus, lane departure warning with emergency assist, front emergency brake assist and traffic sign-based speed limiting.
