William Stopford

2024 Audi RS5 Competition Plus review

Audi's more practical rival to the BMW M3 Sedan has gotten one last shot of adrenaline before a new generation comes.

Pros

Genuinely fun to drive
Still liveable
More practical than a coupe...

Cons

...but less practical than cheaper RS4 Avant
Interior looking a bit old
Some plasticky switchgear

New, more focused Competition packages dial up the fun factor for the Audi RS5 Coupe and Sportback without killing their all-round appeal.

2021 Audi RS5 review

It mightn't be a wild child like some of its rivals, but the Audi RS5 carves an appealing niche and offers blistering performance in all weather conditions.

2021 Audi RS5 Sportback review

Audi is clawing its way back to the top of the pile with cars like the RS5 Sportback. I can't think of more capable rivals.
