Audi Discontinues Its Remaining Coupes and Convertibles in America

The A5, S5, and RS5 Coupes and Convertibles will be discontinued in 2025.

Audi’s aging lineup is largely uninspiring, though there are some noteworthy changes for 2025, most of which are disappointing.

The major update is the discontinuation of the A5, S5, and RS5 Coupes and Convertibles. Audi of America briefly mentioned this by stating that the “2025 A5 family includes the A5 Sportback, S5 Sportback, and RS 5 Sportback.”

That’s a disappointing sendoff as the models were the last remaining coupes and convertibles in the lineup following the death of the TT and R8. Now, if you want a sporty looking Audi, you’ll have to settle for a crossover coupe.

Aside from those deaths, there’s not much to talk about as most models receive minor equipment changes and revised pricing. That being said, the 2025 Q7 and SQ7 get a modest facelift that includes revised bumpers, a new diffuser, and functional exhaust tips. The models also offer new wheels and color options.

Apart from these discontinuations, there isn’t much to report as most models receive only minor equipment updates and revised pricing. However, the 2025 Q7 and SQ7 do get a modest facelift, featuring updated bumpers, a new diffuser, and functional exhaust tips. Additionally, these models now offer new wheel designs and color options.

Audi oddly did not mention the 2025 Q6 and SQ6 e-tron, which are expected to arrive in the fourth quarter. Pricing will be revealed closer to the launch date. The Q6 e-tron features a 100 kWh battery pack and a dual-motor all-wheel drive system producing up to 456 hp (340 kW / 462 PS). This allows the crossover to accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in 4.9 seconds, reach a top speed of 130 mph (209 km/h), and travel 307 miles (494 km) on a single charge.

The SQ6 e-tron is similar but boasts an enhanced dual-motor all-wheel drive system that delivers up to 509 hp (380 kW / 516 PS). With this extra power, it can reach 60 mph (96 km/h) in 4.1 seconds and a top speed of 143 mph (230 km/h). However, the range decreases to 275 miles (443 km).
