Is the Audi A5 a convertible?

Audi A5 is not entirely a convertible. The Audi A5 is divided into the Sportback hatchback, Coupe hardtop sports car, and Cabriolet soft-top convertible. The convertible version of the Audi A5 is the Cabriolet. Introduction to Audi A5: The A5 is a branch model under the Audi brand, with three body style options in the A5 series. The A5 Coupe is a two-door four-seat (five-seat) fixed hardtop coupe, the A5 Cabriolet is a two-door four-seat (five-seat) soft-top folding mechanism convertible coupe, and the A5 Sportback is a four-door four-seat (five-seat) hatchback coupe. Introduction to Audi A5 Cabriolet: 2019 Cabriolet 40 TFSI: 2.0-liter turbocharged, 190 horsepower, front-wheel drive. 2019 Cabriolet 45 TFSI: 2.0-liter turbocharged, 252 horsepower, front four-wheel drive. The new Audi A5 Cabriolet has a power output of up to 185 kW, a maximum torque of 370 N.m, and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time reduced to 6.3 seconds.
To be honest, I test drove the Audi A5 series last year, including the Coupe, Sportback, and the convertible Cabriolet. The Cabriolet is the convertible version of the Audi A5, featuring an electric folding soft top that can be fully opened or closed in just 20 seconds with the press of a button—super convenient. With the top down, there's a bit more wind noise, but a good sound system completely solves that issue. Compared to the regular Coupe, the convertible is slightly heavier, which affects acceleration a bit, but the four-seat design is very practical. In terms of maintenance, the roof needs regular cleaning and lubrication to prevent leaks or aging, especially in rainy seasons or dusty areas. I found it really enjoyable for short city drives, and friends were all envious during weekend cruises. It costs a few thousand more than the regular A5, but the unique experience makes it worth considering.
