Overview

Introduced in 2018, the Audi A5 Sportback is a sleek, four-door hatchback variant of the long-running A5 line, which was initially offered as a coupe and convertible.

What’s New/Key Changes From Last Year

New for 2021 is a mild-hybrid drivetrain that uses a 12-volt electric motor to provide a modest boost in performance.

New among the A5 Sportback’s standard features are an auto-dimming rearview mirror with compass and toll transponder, wireless Apple CarPlay connectivity, and lane departure warning. Top-trim Technik models also gain rear-seat USB charge ports.

Available Trims

Audi offers the A5 Sportback in Komfort, Progressiv and Technik trim levels. All three use the 12-volt mild hybrid drive system, which is built around a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine, a seven-speed automatic dual-clutch transmission, and Quattro AWD.

Standard Features

A5 Sportback Komfort trim’s exterior features include 19-inch wheels, heated side mirrors, all-weather lights, auto on/off LED matrix headlights and LED taillights, a power tailgate, and high-gloss window trim.

Inside, Komfort models are equipped with a 10.1-inch touchscreen, panoramic sunroof, Bluetooth, a three-way split-folding rear seat, colour driver info display, a 10-speaker stereo, heated/power front seats with lumbar, three-zone automatic climate control, push-button engine start, leather-trimmed steering wheel, satellite radio, leather upholstery, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and wireless Apple CarPlay.

Audi’s standard advanced safety package comprises city-speed collision detection with automatic braking, rear-end collision detection, rain-sensing wipers, blind spot monitoring, lane departure warning, tire pressure monitoring, and an exit warning system.

Mid-range Progressiv trim adds a virtual cockpit digital gauge cluster, navigation, an integrated garage door remote, rear cross traffic alert, a heated steering wheel, passive keyless entry, hands-free trunk operation, front and rear parking sensors, driver’s seat memory, auto-dimming side mirrors, lighted door sills, aluminum inlays, and automatic high beams.

Finally, Technik trim brings laser LED headlights, top-view camera, a Bang & Olufsen stereo, headlight washers, power-folding side mirrors, rear-seat USB charge points, ambient interior lighting, and premium LED taillights.

Key Options

Komfort trim can be augmented with a convenience package of parking sensors, heated steering wheel, driver’s seat memory, passive keyless entry, auto-dimming side mirrors, and rear cross traffic alert.

All further A5 Sportback option packs are limited to Progressiv and Technik trims.

An S line sport package brings a sport suspension and front sport seats, power front-seat lumbar, a black headliner, stainless steel pedals, and brushed aluminum interior trim. You can also add ventilated front seats to this package.

An S line black package is similar but adds gloss black interior trim and black window, grille and side mirror treatments, along with specific wheels.

A comfort seating bundle brings ventilated front sport seats with front-passenger power lumbar.

Finally, Audi’s advanced driver assistance package adds adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, traffic congestion assist, all-speed forward collision avoidance, active lane assist, traffic sign recognition, and hands-on detection.

Fuel Economy

As of this writing, Audi had not published fuel consumption figures for the 2021 A5 Sportback and its new mild hybrid engine. However, we anticipate its estimates will be similar to those for the 2020 model, which were 10.0/7.3 L/100 km (city/highway). We’ll update this article when Audi releases its 2021 fuel economy information.

Competition

Audi’s main competitor here is the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe, a similarly conceived compact four-door hatchback. There’s also the Volkswagen Arteon, with its larger liftback body. Finally, if you want more performance for less money in a sporty liftback, there’s the Kia Stinger.

Recall Information

Safety recalls issued by the manufacturer and Transport Canada for this vehicle model.

Recall #

Date

System Affected

Model Years

Manufacturer Recall #: 91DZ

Units Affected: 19006

Type: Compliance Mfr

Details:

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the rearview camera image not to appear on the display. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the transmission is shifted into reverse gear. 

Safety Risk: 
A rearview camera image that does not display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
Volkswagen will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the infotainment software.

Manufacturer Recall #: 42L5

Units Affected: 4361

Type: Safety Mfr

Details:

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the rear wheel alignment was not checked during recall 42L1 (Transport Canada Recall 2021-249). As a result, the steering could pull to one side or another and the tires could wear unevenly. If you continue to drive the vehicle in this condition, there may be reduced traction. Eventually, a tire could fail and lose air pressure. 

Safety Risk: 
A tire failure could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
Audi will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect and adjust the rear wheel alignment, as necessary. Additionally, the dealer will inspect the rear tires for premature and uneven wear due to this issue, and replace them if necessary.

Manufacturer Recall #: 69CS

Units Affected: 7198

Type: Compliance Mfr

Details:

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the passenger seat belt assemblies may contain defective automatic locking retractors (ALR). As a result, the seat belts may not properly lock to secure a child seat. 

Safety Risk: 
A seat belt that is used to secure a child restraint but is not properly locked could increase the risk of injury in a crash.

Corrective Actions: 
Audi will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the seat belts. They will be replaced, if necessary.

Manufacturer Recall #: 42L1

Units Affected: 5396

Type: Safety Mfr

Details:

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the lock nuts for the rear trailing arm bolts may be defective. If a nut breaks, there could be sudden changes in rear wheel alignment. This can cause a loss of vehicle stability. 
 
Safety Risk: 
Reduced vehicle stability could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash. 
 
Corrective Actions:
Audi will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to replace the rear trailing arm lock nuts. If necessary, the associated bolt(s) will be replaced as well.

Manufacturer Recall #: 97EU

Units Affected: 1409

Type: Safety Mfr

Details:

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, a layer of protective tape may not have been installed around a wiring harness in the spare tire area. As a result, the wiring harness could become damaged in a rear crash. If this happens, it may not be possible to open the doors from the outside and/or the hazard lights may not work. 
 
Safety Risk: 
Doors that cannot be opened from the outside could increase the risk of injury after a crash. Hazard lights that do not work could make the vehicle less visible and increase the risk of a crash. 
 
Corrective Actions: 
Audi will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to apply protective tape to the wiring harness for the rear lights.
