Pros & Cons

What we love
Entry point into the A5 lineup — replaces the A4 with a 5-door liftback body, 2.0 TFSI quattro powertrain and 48V mild-hybrid assist, 268hp and 295 lb-ft
Notably well-equipped from the base trim: heated steering wheel, remote start, and adaptive cruise control are all standard — features that are optional (or unavailable) on the smaller A3/S3
14.5" MMI touchscreen and 11.9" Audi virtual cockpit plus standard, alongside a standard (non-dimmable) panoramic glass roof
Quattro all-wheel drive with center limited-slip differential standard — no FWD-only version offered in the US
Considerations
No surround-view (360°) camera, B&O premium audio, or head-up display at this trim level — reserved for Premium Plus and Prestige
Ventilated seats and memory seats are not available standard on Premium (memory seats listed as an unconfirmed option)
Seat material is not explicitly stated in published specs for this trim — confirm leather vs. leatherette via configurator
Base 10-speaker audio system is itself unconfirmed on the published Premium spec page (Edmunds' detailed spec sheet reflects the Premium Plus configuration)
