2014 Audi RS 5 Overview
2014 Audi RS 5 Exterior
If the Audi A5 and the S5 coupe had a baby, it would be the 2014 RS 5 with its sexy, sleek silhouette and honeycomb grilled. The exterior of the sports car reflects the brilliance of Audi design with sculpted, modernized lines and dual exhausts that add a touch of sportiness. If you’re looking to let your hair down a bit, the RS 5 Cabriolet model is exactly what you’re looking for. With a traditional soft top, the tight-fitting construction allows for a quiet cabin.

A 4.2-liter V8 engine offers the 2014 Audi RS 5 a healthy dose of power that produces 450 hp and 317 lb-ft of torque. The standard all-wheel-drive system is powered by a seven-speed automated dual-clutch manual transmission, which allows the RS 5 to reach 60 from a standstill in a fast 4.3 seconds.

2014 Audi RS 5 Interior
Inside the 2014 RS 5, Audi has created an oasis of sorts with high-end materials and a beautifully understated design. The gauges and console system are all easy to read and use, while the standard MMI infotainment system keeps the driver easily connected. Comfortable front seats offer ample legroom and support, especially when going around curves and turns, though there isn’t much head-or legroom in the back seat for adult-sized passengers.

Antilock disc brakes, stability and traction control, front seat side airbags, front knee airbags, full-length side curtain airbags, and both front and rear parking sensors all come standard. A rearview camera, blind-spot monitoring system, and an automatic emergency braking system are optional.
