Which model is the Audi A5 convertible?

Audi A5 convertible is the Cabriolet, a soft-top convertible model. The Audi A5 comes in three body styles: the two-door Coupe, the four-door Sportback, and the convertible Cabriolet. The Audi A5 is equipped with two engines: a low-power version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine and a high-power version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. There is also the high-performance S5 model, which offers stronger performance and better handling. The Audi A5 perfectly combines Audi's signature dynamic design, exhilarating power and handling, and outstanding craftsmanship, embodying the brand's philosophy of "Vorsprung durch Technik" (Advancement through Technology).

I'm particularly fond of studying luxury convertibles. The official name for the Audi A5 convertible version is A5 Cabriolet. It belongs to the soft-top convertible variant of the A5 series, standing alongside the hardtop Coupe/Sportback in the A5 family. Initially launched in 2007 based on the B8 platform, the latest model is the third-generation facelift released last year. With the top down, the car's lines look exceptionally sleek. Although the rear seats are a bit cramped, they can still accommodate adults. The most exhilarating part is how the quattro version feels glued to the road, and the 252-horsepower high-output 2.0T engine provides ample power for daily stylish driving. During test drives, pay attention to any unusual noises when operating the convertible mechanism, and avoid going over speed bumps too quickly in soft-top models to prevent roof abrasion.

Last time I accompanied my best friend to look at cars, I learned that Audi calls all its soft-top convertibles 'Cabriolet.' So when you see an A5 convertible on the road, its rear definitely bears the A5 Cabriolet badge. It shares the same engine as the hardtop version, and the models currently available in China come in two power variants: 40TFSI and 45TFSI. A little-known fact is that the rear seats can accommodate someone up to 175cm tall, making it slightly more practical than the BMW 4 Series convertible. Remember to check the convertible top's opening and closing speed during the test drive—the standard is 15 seconds for a complete cycle. Don’t expect much in terms of storage space; you’ll need to close the roof to fit a carry-on suitcase.

As an owner who has driven three generations of the A5, this convertible has a very clear positioning: it's for those who want both style and practicality. The chassis is shared with the A4 but has been softened, making it much more comfortable over bumps. The most notable feature is the three-layer soft top, which offers better sound insulation than the previous model—normal conversation is no problem at 80 km/h. The trunk is designed to hold two backpacks even when the top is down, which is better than the Mercedes C convertible. A reminder for friends in the north: regularly spray WD-40 on the top hinges in winter, as snow accumulation can freeze the mechanical components.
