The facelift for the first generation of the Audi A5 was shown in 2012, and the S5 Cabriolet was one of the most coveted versions on the French Riviera. With a long hood and fluid side-lines, the S5 Cabriolet leaves almost no clues about the performance it is capable of. On the outside, there are some modifications that will bring a fresh image to the S5 Cabriolet. The headlights are updated and offer Xenon plus lighting and a LED daytime running light that frames the headlights. Audi also offers an adaptive light system with cornering light. The rear taillights have a new design and are optionally available with a continuous LED system. The new multimedia system has been improved compared to the older version. Now, the passengers can pair their phones via Bluetooth and play music. The biggest improvement for the S5 is the engine. Under the hood, the V8 gasoline unit was dropped in favor of a V6 TFSI (twin-turbo direct-injected gasoline). The result is a lighter front ebd and a better weight distribution between the axles. The maximum power is 333 hp. The 0-100 kph (0-62 mph) acceleration time is 4.9 seconds for the coupe version, a slightly higher time for the convertible. The top speed is electronically limited to 250 kph (155 mph).
