No. of produced cars: Information not available at the moment.
The first generation Audi A5 marked the manufacturers return to the entry-level luxury coupé market since the (B3/B4) Audi 80 based coupé model ended production in 1996. The A5 production was confirmed by Audi on May 10, 2006. The B6/B7 A4 spawned a convertible variant but not a coupé. The A5 was the first of the B8 family of vehicles to be released (the others being the A4 and the Q5 crossover SUV), all based on the Audi MLP platform (Modular Longitudinal Platform) which underpin the next generation A6 and A8. The A5 is the third coupé in Audi’s line up, following the second generation TT and the R8. The A5 adopted design elements of the Nuvolari quattro concept car.
