2024 Audi A5 Hatchback Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2024 Audi A5 comes in three body styles: coupe, convertible (called Cabriolet) and a four-door hatchback (which Audi calls the Sportback). Each body style offers three trim levels: base Premium, midlevel Premium Plus trim and range-topping Prestige. Coupe and convertible models come with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (261 horsepower, 273 lb-ft of torque). Audi calls this engine the 45 TFSI. The Sportback is available with the same engine or a less expensive, detuned version (40 TFSI) rated at 201 hp and 236 lb-ft. Both engines pair with a seven-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel-drive system. Keep reading for our breakdown of the A5's significant standard features and options.

Premium
The A5's base trim comes well equipped with standard features, including:

  • 18-inch alloy wheels
  • LED headlights
  • Panoramic sunroof (coupe and Sportback)
  • Power liftgate (Sportback)
  • Sport suspension (45 TFSI engine)
  • Leather upholstery
  • Power-adjustable and heated front sport seats
  • Three-zone automatic climate control
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Ambient cabin lighting

Technology and driver assist features include:

  • 10.1-inch infotainment touchscreen
  • 7-inch digital gauges display
  • Android Auto and wireless Apple CarPlay smartphone connectivity
  • Forward collision mitigation (warns you of impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Lane departure warning (alerts you if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane)
  • Lane keeping assistance (steers the A5 back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)
  • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the A5 and the car in front)
  • Front and rear parking sensors

The optional Convenience package adds:

  • Auto-dimming side mirrors
  • Keyless entry
  • Driver's seat memory
  • Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning (alerts you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while in reverse)

Premium Plus
Moving up to the Premium Plus builds on the Premium trim by adding Convenience package features along with:

  • Power-folding side mirrors
  • 12.3-inch digital instrument display
  • Synthetic leather-wrapped center console and armrests
  • Wireless charging pad with a signal booster
  • Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the A5 and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
  • Bang & Olufsen premium audio system

Prestige
The Prestige trim maxes out on tech and comfort with:

  • Matrix LED headlights enhanced with animations, laser lighting and headlight washers
  • Heated rear seats (Sportback)
  • Neck heaters (Cabriolet)
  • Navigation system with traffic sign recognition
  • Head-up display (displays important information in your sight line on the windshield)
  • Automated parking system (steers into a parking spot with little or no driver intervention)

Additional packages and single feature options include:

  • Navigation system with traffic sign recognition
  • Black Optic package (19-inch wheels, aluminum and black accents, red brake calipers)
  • S Line Interior package (brushed aluminum inlays, leather and synthetic suede upholstery)
  • Ventilated front seats
  • 19-speaker Bang & Olufsen premium audio system
  • Rear side airbags (Sportback)

Which A5 trim does Edmunds recommend?

The base A5 is nicely equipped, but not surprisingly, it doesn't offer many options. The midlevel Premium Plus offers the best bang for the buck, adding extra features such as upgraded driver display, a wireless phone charger, and a premium Bang & Olufsen sound system. Blind-spot warning and a surround-view camera are also included, while navigation, ventilated front seats and 19-inch wheels are among several options.
