What are the dimensions of the Audi A5?

The body dimensions of the Audi A5 are 4705mm in length, 1846mm in width, and 1359mm in height, as per official data. The length of the Audi A5 refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the outermost protruding points at the front and rear of the car. The width is the distance between two planes parallel to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding points on both sides of the vehicle. The height is the distance from the highest point of the vehicle to its supporting plane. The Audi A5 is powered by the 2.0T EA888 engine in low/high power versions. The low-power version delivers 140kW (190PS), while the high-power version offers 185kW (252PS), paired with the same 7-speed DSG transmission as the current model. This powertrain system is mature, reliable, and performs well. National regulations on vehicle dimensions are specified in the issued national standard 'GB1589-89,' which states that the total width of a vehicle does not include side mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that, according to national standards, the significance of vehicle width data lies in ensuring enough space during overtaking to prevent accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the usage requirements of public roads.
I usually drive an Audi A5, which is approximately 4.7 meters in length, 1.85 meters in width, and 1.35 meters in height. It's quite convenient for city driving because it's not too long, so I don't worry much about scraping when entering garages or parking on narrow roads. Parking spaces are usually 5 meters long, and the A5 fits with room to adjust. The lower height makes it stable to drive, but visibility is still decent on rainy days. The size also benefits fuel efficiency; the compact body consumes less fuel, averaging around 8 liters per 100 kilometers. The rear seating is adequate, comfortably fitting two adults without feeling cramped, and the trunk space is also good—sufficient for groceries and luggage. The overall design is well-balanced, not as bulky as some larger cars, so I rarely feel stressed when parking, and it handles turns smoothly even in residential areas.
