ABT Audi AS5
The new Audi A5 combines a sporty and an unobtrusive design to a powerful,
elegant and individual appearance. "A uniquely beautiful car and thus a
real challenge for us," says Hans-Jürgen Abt. The managing director of
Abt Sportsline raved about the new Coupe from Ingolstadt, but he
emphasizes that "our designers and engineers were able to improve the
outstanding base model even more". The character of the noble sportscar
still maintains but after getting a special treatment in the Allgaeu it
appears more dynamical. The body kit, especially tailor-made for the Abt
AS5, is a spectacular package: a front skirt with a grid element which
emphasizes the singel-frame grill and the fog lights, the slightly curved,
laterally mounted body parts and the sleek gill-shaped air-inlets, as well
as the well-proportioned rear. With the unobtrusive but striking rear
spoiler and the rear skirt inset in diffuser optics, the design of the Abt
AS5 is gracefully rounded off. The 4-pipe rear muffler is perfectly fitting
and additionally recontoures the rear view. Needless to say that the car
sounds as a real Abt car should.

Even when standing still, the Abt AS5 is a sensual car, which eagerly
wants to be driven. And when it is allowed to go on the road, it shows how
much sports spirit it has. First of all, the 3.0 TDI engine gets a
significant "power treatment". The extremely powerful, self-igniting
engine perfectly fits to the A5 and, in addition, offers moderate
consumption values. By means of improved motor management, Abt turns the
serial 240 hp (176 kW) into powerful 272 hp (200 kW). With an extra Abt
turbo charger, the power even increases to 300 well feeded horses. Diesel
and sportiness belong together since long. Certainly, Abt Sportsline will
successively modify later developed A5 engines.

To ensure a perfect handling of the noble power package, Abt also makes
use of its adjustable sports suspension, besides the serial Quattro
engine. All the more, the Abt AS5 will be brought to a standstill by means
of the Abt brake system with a disc diameter of 380 millimeters.

To perfectly round off the successful optics package, Abt Sportsline
recommends the AR wheel, which is available for the A5 in the sizes from
18 to 20 inch, of course together with appropriate sport tyres. Wheels,
body components and technical modifications build a whole unit: a
wonderful Coupe at its best. Not more and not less.
