Audi provides a sneak peek at the new A5 Sportback


The new Audi A5 Sportback actually looks pretty good, unlike some other crossovers we've seen recently. We also expect Audi to launch this car in India by end-2009

Perhaps taking a cue from the recently unveiled BMW 5 Series Grand Turismo, Audi is also doing a coupe-saloon-estate crossover – the new A5 Sportback. Thankfully, though, the Audi vehicle seems vastly prettier than the gawky, awkward BMW…

According to a press release from Audi, ‘The A5 Sportback combines the best of different automotive worlds. It is as emotional and elegant as a coupe, as comfortable as a saloon, and as practical as an Avant. The Sportback joins the CoupĂ© and Cabriolet as the third member of the A5 model family, and at the same time, creates a new segment.’

The Audi A5 Sportback will be available with a choice of two petrol and three diesel engines, Quattro all-wheel-drive, adaptive suspension and the fuel saving stop-start system. We expect Audi to add the A5 Sportback to its India line-up by the end of this year.
