Best new Audis coming soon

Everything you need to know about the new Audi models that have just launched or are coming soon

Audi recently scrapped its big plan to rename all of its cars, although the A4 is now the A5 after the plan was partially implemented. It’s all likely to cause a bit of confusion about which Audi is which, but the good news is that the cars themselves are better than ever and there are lots of new models on the way to join those that have already arrived this year.

Read on below to find out more about all the new Audi cars that are coming soon as well as useful information and our thoughts on the ones that are already out.

Audi A5

As a result of that bewildering naming strategy, the latest generation of Audi’s combustion-powered compact executive saloon and estate – meaning its rival to the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes C-Class – couldn’t be called the A4. It therefore took on the Audi A5 moniker.

There’s the Sportback-style A5 Saloon or a more practical A5 Avant estate. Engine options range from a 148bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol to a 364bhp 3.0-litre V6 petrol in the much sportier S5 and an e-hybrid plug-in hybrid option. Standard kit on every model includes an 11.9-inch ‘Virtual Cockpit’ driver’s display, 14.5-inch central touchscreen, three-zone climate control, leather upholstery and adaptive cruise control. Prices start from £41,950.

Audi A6

Until Audi backtracked on its naming strategy, the replacement for the outgoing, combustion-powered Audi A6 executive saloon and estate was going to be the new Audi A7. However, that’s not happening anymore, and instead the BMW 5 Series rival and Mercedes E-Class rival is still called A6. It’s efficient, refined and comfortable thanks to the excellent new powertrain tech, although our reviewers felt it could have done more to move the game on.

Audi A6 e-tron

The sleek A6 e-tron is Audi’s all-electric response to the BMW i5, and is available as a coupé-inspired Sportback saloon or a good old-fashioned Avant family estate car. The A6 e-tron uses the new Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture, which is only for EVs and was co-developed with Porsche. It means the new Audi shares a considerable amount with the new Porsche Macan Electric.

The A6 e-tron is available with a 75.8kWh and 94.9kWh battery, plus single or dual-motor powertrains. The larger battery is good for up to 463 miles of range, and there’s a hot S6 version with 542bhp, quattro all-wheel drive and a 0-62mph time of 3.9 seconds.

Audi Q3

The new Audi Q3 has only just arrived, and the BMW X1, Mercedes GLA and MINI Countryman rival is a marked improvement over the already-impressive outgoing car. The plug-in hybrid model is particularly impressive, as it brings good efficiency and range.

There are petrol and diesel versions along with the PHEV, and all are good to drive: the ride is smooth enough, and the interior is comfy and well-equipped. It’s a bit expensive overall, but if you can afford it the new Q5 is looking like a great family car choice.

Audi Q3 Sportback

Hot on the heels of the new Q3 will be the sleeker Sportback model. It will match the standard car’s range of petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrid powertrains and cost from £38,300 when it arrives very soon. The Sportback model is virtually identical at the front, and the interior is pretty much the same as well, so the only thing that might sell you on it is the redesigned rear-end. It has a more coupe-like shape, which some people think makes it look more upmarket. If that’s you, look out for the Q3 Sportback later in the year.

The newest Audi Q5 has a range of engine options and like many of its Audi siblings the interior is excellent and full of tech. The ‘Digital Stage’ dashboard design includes an 11.9-inch Virtual Cockpit and 14.5-inch central touchscreen in one curved panel, plus a separate 10.9-inch display for the passenger. The premium mid-size SUV is currently available with mild-hybrid petrol and diesel engines, and there’s a fiery SQ5 model with 362bhp too.
