Audi has ceased production of its A5 Coupé and A5 Cabriolet models. The German marque has no plans to replace the vehicles.

This decision follows the discontinuation of the A3 Cabriolet in 2019, the TT Roadster and TT Coupé last year, and the exit of the final R8 from the assembly line.

The new A5 range will consist solely of the A5 Sedan (a liftback) and the A5 Avant, with no plans for new coupés or convertibles. High-performance models like the S5 and RS5 will still be available, but Audi’s traditional coupés and convertibles have reached their end.

The German brand still plans to introduce electric versions of the TT and R8 in the future, but there is no set date for this.

Audi’s strategy is to go fully electric by 2033, which limits the viability of new gasoline-powered two-door models. Currently, the focus is on more practical and popular models, with plans to possibly launch a three-row SUV, the Q9.
