2026 Audi A5
A5 is Audi's compact luxury entry for 2026 shoppers on DriveRevu (we picked A5 over A4 because EPA lists a 2026 A5 model page while A4 bymodel data is 2025-only at research time). Trade-offs: quattro packaging; typically lower mpg than hybrid compact rivals.
What's confirmed (EPA 2026)
- A5 quattro 2.0L: 26 mpg combined (22 city / 32 highway)
Practical notes
Cross-shop 330i, C300, and IS. If you specifically need a continuing A4 string, treat 2025 A4 EPA as historical context only — not a 2026 rating.
