Audi is always moving forward. Recently, the brand with the four rings has been a bit quieter than usual, but it turns out this was the calm before the storm. And now we see that Audi is ready to radically change its car lineup. Meet the all-new 2025 Audi A5 and 2025 Audi A6 e-tron.
These mid-size luxury cars are not just part of a refresh. They are the harbingers of a future that encompasses all Audi vehicles. The technology you will see in these models will soon become standard across the lineup.
What Happened to the Audi A4?
Let's start with Audi’s decision to change its usual naming system. From now on, all-electric models will receive even numbers (like A6, A8), while combustion-engine cars will have odd numbers (A5, A7). So, the former A4 is a thing of the past, and the new A5 takes its place, which is technically a four-door hatchback.
Don't get bogged down with the new designation — the main change lies under the hood.
A Look at the 2025 Audi A5
The new 2025 Audi A5 is a car that symbolizes the beginning of the end of the combustion engine era. It’s the first Audi built on the new Premium Platform Combustion (PPC), which will be used for future gas-powered and hybrid cars. However, rumors suggest this might be Audi’s last combustion engine.
The new A5 is longer and wider, while maintaining Audi’s signature elegant, restrained, and unmistakable design. Under the hood, you'll find a 2.0-liter turbo engine with 268 hp. For speed lovers, Audi offers the S5 with a 3.0-liter V6 producing 362 hp. Of course, Quattro all-wheel-drive is standard.
The A5’s interior also saw major changes. First, the new Digital Stage system is a large curved screen combining the dashboard and central display. Front-seat passengers now have their own display, and the driver enjoys an upgraded heads-up display on the windshield.
Electric Vision: 2025 Audi A6 e-tron
Now let’s move to the 2025 Audi A6 e-tron. This fully electric sedan is based on the new Premium Platform Electric (PPE), first introduced in the Q6 e-tron.
The new A6 e-tron boasts an incredible range of up to 756 kilometers on a single charge. This is thanks to a 100 kWh battery that supports ultra-fast charging. But the surprises don’t stop there: the drag coefficient is a mere 0.21, making the A6 e-tron the most aerodynamic Audi ever.
Inside, the A6 e-tron features a similar cockpit to the A5, with a digital dashboard and numerous displays. It’s powered by Android Automotive OS, with over-the-air updates. The integration of third-party apps includes music, video, games, navigation, and more.
What’s Next?
Audi is clearly not stopping here. We’ll learn more about the specs and pricing closer to the release date. But one thing is certain: Audi 2025 is ushering in a new era for cars.
