Audi S5 Review | The Daily Driver King?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 чер 2024
- The Audi S5 is many things but one thing i didnt expect it to do is be such an amazing daily driver. Recently it seems like Audi isnt really focused on their gas powered engine cars, besides maybe the R8. Cars like the RS5 have really fallen behind in the performance category to cars like the M3 and the new C63. However, the Audi S5 continue to be a popular car and i never understood why until i got a chance to drive it.
The one i got to experience is in the coupe body style, not very popular, and was painted in a cool looking gray color with some awesome looking wheels. This S5 caught me by surprise because when i got to see it up close i started seeing some of the original A5/S5 and i really enjoyed the way the original looked. Combining that with the S badge, the S5 proposed a balance of sport and daily drivability. Does it do it well? We're going to find out in this review of the Audi S5!

Just bought this car exact model and trim - love it so far!
Gonna mod it? I think the body shape makes it a perfect candidate for a matte wrap.
@@WD.909 I have plans to wrap it in matte color. But I'm still looking at other options. And my attention has shifted towards restoring another car I purchased.
@@WD.909you’d be correct, wrapped mine matte black
Have had 2023 S5 sportback for a few weeks. Your description is right on. Very comfortable and with better handling than most others in this purposed class; a fun daily driver that will work great with snow tires in the snow belt.
Great review. Thanks
Thanks for watching
Cheers mate 😎 👌
Great review I love my Turbo blue coupe , FYI you can also open the trunk with your foot , just by kicking under the bumper on the right side
👍
Nicely done
Appreciate it, thanks for watching
Not a fan of touch screen .So I still use the knob .great review ,next time do one with the sound of the stereo.
I disagree about the screen. I LOVE the screen size and placement. Finally Audi nailed it
It is ages behind BMW.
@@sunshadow9704 said nobody. Ever.
@@cjrd1993 it is not even matter of an opinion. Sit in any BMW 2021/2024. BMW screen is bigger, provides noticeably more level of functionality. Ability to install additional apps such as traffic cameras, ect. Heads up display is multi colored. Current speed is shown in red at the instance you go over posted speed limit which reduces the fatigue (otherwise your brain must constantly compares posted speed limit vs actual as audi offers no visual aid). The list goes on. But, hey, you do you.
Excellent job on answering every relevant question I had on this vehicle. Your review narrows my choices to this car and a Lexus RC 350 F Sport. Now it's time for test drives. BTW, I previously owned an Audi A6 for 8 years. My only real issue was that the car was over engineered to the smallest detail, e.g., light bulbs.
Nice review. Likewise, I appreciate the S5 for it’s overall balance of sport and comfort…however, my preference is the sportback vs the coupe.
S5 might be my next car
You should. I picked up a 2023 S5 Sport back four weeks ago. Love it, traded my TTRS in for this. Much more practical
I have the same car, but a 2019. Best daily I've ever owned.
Great review!! Thank you.. Could you please tell me what color this car is? Appreciate it
I believe it's called chronos gray
@@DriveSteady thank you very much.. Lovely color
After going from a TTRS to an Audi S5 sport-back I initially thought I’d have been happier with the coupe. I’m actually glad I went with the Sport back, I think it’s better looking than the coupe. Alas it doesn’t perform as well as my TTRS, however I’ll have a less tendency to kill myself with a more practical vehicle.
The sportback looks retarded imo
Awesome car. coupe is sporty while Sportback is a family car.
doesnt the car have ambient lighting in the interior?
Great review-but exactly what is the color called? Thanks
I believe it's called Suzuka grey
Quantum Grey
in Time stamp 11:34 of the video the back of the driver's seat headrest has a forward and backward arrow switch? What does that do?
It moves the seat forward and backward electronically
I have my eye on a M240i xdrive but was curious about how it would compare to this car?
The new M240 is much sportier. What characteristics were you looking to compare between the two?
@@DriveSteady Good to know the bimmer is more sporty. How about as a daily driver on bumpy/bad roads? Is there a big difference in ride quality between the two?
Not a huge difference but the Audi does ride a little better.
So is the '23 S4 the exact same as the S5 in size minus the trunk?
You realize that he has a coupe not a 4 door? S4 and this S5 are different animals, I’m guessing that you are talking the sportback S5 4 door? If so, no S5 is slightly larger.
This car appereantly doesn't have backseats
when he blinks, you drink tequila.
Probably a stupid question being a Audi but how’s the reliability? 😂 I had a 370z that unfortunately got stolen 😡 possibly looking for a replacement/upgrade next year when I move. A coworker of mine got one of these as a RENTAL CAR through insurance for some reason?!?! Never seen insurance give cars this clean 💀 looks to be few years older than this but close enough
They didnt answer your question for 5 months, i guess Audi isn't reliable
@@spazzinvader9083 😂😂😭 probably so. If I get one of these in the future definitely won’t make it past a year without trade in for peace of mind alone 💀
Is this stock exhaust?
Yup.
What about the color? Is it Quantum Grey or Nardo Grey?
HUUUUUGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
@@alexgreco748 Hey man, thanks for the shout out! Stay huge.
Am I the only one who thinks that sportback looks actually better? I've only driven A5 45 TFSI so far, but damm, it drives well.
My feelings on the sportback go back and forth. Maybe it depends on the viewing angle? Sometimes I think it looks absolutely superb, other times it just looks a little too long, like it's been kind of stretched too far 😀
I'm pondering an S5 (can't afford the RS5 🙁). I think I'd probably go the coupe since I don't have kids so very rarely need to carry back seat passengers and I think the proportions of the coupe are just slightly nicer. But both versions look good, just a matter of preference, really.
@@ADoug1975 I currently have the A3 without doors in the back. Also don't have kids, but not having back doors is a bitch. I will never buy a car without them again, unless it is a toy car, like a Miata or something.
You want to take a hitchhiker in the rain? Your GF has to get out of the car. You want to put a laptop bag on the rear seat? You can quite easily, but getting it back sucks.
That one time you want to give your parents a ride? Somebody needs to climb the back.
I love the car, there is plenty of space in the rear seats, the trunk is suprisingly spacious, but usabillity is hurt by the lack of those doors.
Sportback is the king!!!
Yes, but that's still probably the model to get.
@@tomitomi7214 yeap, got the S5 sportback, it is in fact he king :D
4,7 seconds ona. Good day.
“Infamous Quattro” from Audi? You do realize “infamous” means having a bad reputation, right?
Love this car except for the screen, it looks awful sitting up on the dash and needs to be built in like a Q7. The interface is great for me, love the touch screen and options.
Why rev in park😭
That's an aftermarket exhaust guaranteed with 7000 miles
265/30 tires. Not 35
M340i/M440i any day
9:20 i disagree
The instrument panel is becoming very outdated and with the center screen still tacked on instead of integrated into the dash. Looks like an after thought AND the user interface of the MMI is simply horrible. Never the same screen twice, buttons come and go or it just locks up. Forget Car Play, too much hassle to use on short in/out car trips around town. With the removal of the knob MMI interface, far, far too many dangerous actions are required to touch the screen and hit the correct button. I could go on for days but I won't. This is my third and last Audi. Never again.
Lol
Wow! Thanks for giving the cons as well. We always hear about the good but never the bad
