The new 2027 Audi RS5 marks a pivotal moment for Audi as its first high-performance plug-in hybrid. At the heart of the machine is an improved 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6 producing 510 PS, paired with a 130 kW electric motor for a combined system output of 639 PS and 825 Nm of torque. That potent combination launches the RS 5 from 0 to 62 mph in just 3.6 seconds, while a 25.9 kWh battery provides up to 84 kilometers of all-electric range for quiet, emissions-free commuting.What truly sets the RS 5 apart is its groundbreaking quattro drivetrain with Dynamic Torque Control, featuring the world's first electromechanical torque vectoring system in a production car. A dedicated rear transaxle redistributes torque between the rear wheels in as little as 15 milliseconds, delivering razor-sharp agility and composure whether carving canyon roads or cruising the highway. Wrapped in bodywork that's nine centimeters wider than the 2026 Audi A5, with darkened Matrix LED headlights sporting a checkered-flag daytime running light signature and a motorsport-inspired rear diffuser, the RS 5 looks every bit as capable as it drives. European order books open in Q1 2026, with deliveries expected by summer.2027 Audi RS 5-28 The cockpit of the new, 2027 RS 5 is an ultra-modern, driver-oriented command post centered around the slim, free-standing Audi MMI Panorama display.
