The All-New Audi S5 Sedan Coming to New Zealand

The new Audi S5 Sedan is coming and it’s unlike anything else on New Zealand roads. Combining pure power, intelligent design, and futuristic technology, this latest generation of S5 redefines what a modern performance sedan can be.

Sleek, Athletic Design

From every angle, the S5 Sedan makes a statement. A wide Singleframe grille, honeycomb detailing, and aggressive air intakes create a bold, self-assured front. Powerful side lines and Audi’s iconic “blister” wheel arches hint at the performance underneath, while the coupe-like roofline flows elegantly into the rear for a refined, athletic silhouette.

At the rear, digital OLED taillights and quad exhaust pipes give the S5 its signature stance; sporty, assertive, and unmistakably Audi.

Pure S Performance

At the heart of the S5 Sedan is a 3.0-litre turbocharged V6 TFSI engine that delivers:

  • 270 kW of power
  • 550 Nm of torque
  • 0–100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds

But this isn’t just power for power’s sake. Integrated into the drivetrain is Audi’s new MHEV plus mild-hybrid system, offering up to 18 kW of electric boost. It supports partially electric driving, reduces fuel consumption, and adds an extra kick to acceleration — all while cutting CO₂ emissions.

It’s efficient. It’s intelligent. And it’s seriously quick.

Quattro Confidence, Every Time

With quattro all-wheel drive and a quattro sport differential, the S5 Sedan delivers exceptional grip and agility, whether you’re cruising coastal highways or navigating winding back roads. Wheel-selective torque control keeps the car balanced in corners, while Audi drive select allows you to choose your driving style, from comfortable to dynamic, with the tap of a button.

Leading With Light

The S5 Sedan features Audi’s latest Matrix LED headlights and, for the first time, digital OLED rear lights, offering both beauty and brains. Eight different light signature pairs can be selected via the touchscreen for a personalised visual identity, day or night.

A Sedan Built for the Driver

Why choose a sedan in today’s SUV world? The S5 Sedan proves exactly why:

  • A lower centre of gravity for more responsive handling
  • Sleeker profile and improved aerodynamics
  • A more connected, driver-focused feel on the road
  • Easier to manoeuvre, park, and enjoy around town

And when it looks this good and drives this well, do you really need a reason?

Step Inside the Future

Inside, the S5 Sedan offers a futuristic sense of space with premium materials and a digital-first layout:

  • A panoramic 14.5″ MMI touchscreen
  • A curved 11.9″ Audi virtual cockpit display
  • Optional passenger display for front-seat co-pilots
  • Ambient lighting and a new “interaction light” strip under the windscreen

The cabin is wrapped in what Audi calls the “softwrap” — a seamless design element that flows from the doors through to the dash, creating a calm, high-tech environment centred around the driver.

Feel the Sportiness

The S Sport seats in fine Nappa leather with diamond stitching aren’t just beautiful — they’re built for all-day comfort. Enjoy heating, ventilation, 4-way lumbar adjustment, and even a massage function.

And with Bang & Olufsen 3D premium sound fitted as standard, every drive becomes a personal concert. For those wanting even more immersion, optional speakers in the headrests create individual sound zones for phone calls or navigation, crystal clear and private.

Limited Numbers. Maximum Impact.

The all-new Audi S5 Sedan is available in limited numbers for New Zealand, making it a rare opportunity to own something truly special. Whether you’re ready to feel the thrill from behind the wheel or still exploring your options, now’s the time to take the next step.
