system, the turbocharger and the integration of the exhaust manifold. In the
Audi A5 Coupé, the high-end four-cylinder unit consumes on average just 5.7
liters of fuel per 100 km (41.27 US mpg). This value corresponds to 134 grams
CO2 per km (215.65 g/mile) and is 21 percent lower than before. With 125 kW
(170 hp), the 1.8 TFSI accelerates the A5 powerfully.
The output of the 2.0 TFSI remains unchanged at 155 kW (211
hp). New to the Audi A5 lineup is the 3.0 TFSI, a supercharged V6 producing 200
kW (272 hp).

130 kW (177 hp) 2.0 TDI and a manual transmission, the Audi A5 Coupé consumes
on average just 4.7 liters of fuel per 100 km (50.05 US mpg) – a CO2 equivalent
of 122 g per km (196.34 g/mile) and a milestone in the coupe segment.
Three V6 diesel units round out the lineup on the top end.

in its class worldwide. In the Audi A5 Coupé with multitronic, it consumes on
average 4.9 liters (48 US mpg) of fuel and emits just 129 grams CO2 per km
