No coupes, no convertibles: Audi A5, S5, and RS5 two-doors axed for 2025
Audi has published the list of changes it's making to its lineup for the 2025 model year, and two models are missing. The coupe and convertible variants of the A5 (including the S5s and the fixed-roof-only RS5) are retiring, though the four-door A5 Sportback remains.
The decision leaves Audi without a coupe or a convertible in its range for the first time in decades. Not long ago, buyers had several two-door Audi models to choose from, but the TT retired after three generations in 2023 and the final R8 was built earlier in 2024. Audi has hinted that it wants to fill the gap left by the TT in the next five to 10 years, but there's no word yet on whether the two-door A5s will be replaced.
What's nearly certain is that the nameplate will live on. An earlier report claims Audi plans to rejig its naming system in the coming years as it expands its range of electric models. Odd-numbered nameplates, like the A3 and the A5, will denote gasoline-powered models, while even-numbered nameplates, such as A4 and A6, will appear on EVs. This will avoid the confusion of having two wildly different A6s, for example.
