2013 Audi S5 Quattro S tronic 0-60 MPH Drive & Review

- ( www.TFLcar.com ) The 2013 Audi S5 Coupe Quattro is an all-wheel-drive autobahn burner. With a supercharged 333 horsepower 3.0L engine the Audi S5 pulls like a freight train. In this video review we not only drive the newest automatic 7-speed Audi S5 through the snow-covered Colorado mountains but we find out if it is faster 0-60 MP from the manual version of the same model we tested a few months ago.

Go to 5:10 for 0-60. Youre welcome.
Pibbles 'n Bits thanks bro
Thank you!
Fantastic video guys, keep it up!
3:55 "You'd think with a supercharger that there would be a little bit of lag". No dude, you wouldn't; that's exactly the point of superchargers - no lag. What you'd think is that one has to know his shit about cars in order to present a video about cars...
He actually explained that...
+João Soares he was referring to the everyday person who might not know a lot about cars, he then proceeded to explain the difference between a turbo and a supercharger.
Thanks for the comment. You are of course correct. In the real world no one ever accelerates to 60 MPH with a passenger (or two) to perhaps get on an highway on ramp or match the flow of traffic. What were we thinking?
You guys have the best music
i liked the video, awesome car and beautiful scenery, gj
Congrats. You win the Comment Troll of the week award. So much negativity in one sentence is truly note worthy.
I love the the song, car, & place!
Nice job guys
love these guys
Thanks for the great review again Roman. Could you please consider reviewing the 2013 Audi Q5 Prestige with the S-Line package. As a long time fan I would appreciate your opinion. Thanks!
Thank you for the review. Is this, in your opinion, preferable to the V8 S5?
I know this vido is old, but I own a 2013 S5 and want to ask, did you have the transmission in Sport mode for 0 to 60? Would like to see it on a cool day at sea level. I think the specs published say it can do it in 4.8. Regardless, even though my 2011 CTS-V is faster, my wife and I love our 2013 Audi S5 Cabriolet Prestige.
Would LOVE to see that video.
The sexiest car on the market by far.
Done
it's already snowing in colorado? cool, love snow. awesome car too.
Really amazing maschine
6.6 seconds is a lil bit to slow
1:19 what a nice interior... omg Audi... this is very pretty!
Good review been watching y'all for some time how dose this car or all audis do in a snow covered road or a parking spot that has you locked in I know the SuVs of Audi in snow are king vs a BMW and a Porsche (kinda) can you show what I am asking for please in the non SUV line up what Awd drive car dose the best in light but ice roads
Have you guys tested a Cadillac CTS. My understanding is that it's got 318 Bhp (not a lot less than the S5's 333 Bhp engine). I wanna know how it would compare?
Is it better to get the supercharged v6 or the v8? Lemme know
I get reminded that you guys are not at sea level every time I see a 0-60 number from your review lol
Which Luxury car company would you recommend that has a good reliability rating and good fuel efficiency. I don't really want to buy one that I have to constantly get expensive repairs and spend tons of money on gas.
what's the background theme sound called?
What do you think about the Grand Cherokee SRT?
You guys know about launch control right?
im assuming not
theres no magic launch control button in s5 and not everyone knows how to use it.
@romanmicagearguy S5 or 335is? Personal opinion?
Have you reviewed the Mercedes E350 coupe?
hey guys, I like your reviews a lot, however i have a question for you, it seems all reviews I see, no matter what state its done in, the cars always have michigan license plates...any reason why?!
Never care guys,great car,great interview.
LOVE Chris Farley!
When are you going to do ... The 2013 Audi q7?
love the look, but for the price, can i get some more power?!
hey i wanna ask is there a big difference between s5 2013 2014 and 2015 version. Cuz i m thinking about leasing a 2015 s5 or buying a 2013 s5. what s your guys opinion on that
Hao Chen No difference between 13-14 or 15 other then package options .. I just purchased a 2016 today
Why didn't you guys use launch control? With the dual clutch, you cannot brake "stall" or it will drop the rpms quiickly. Great car!
The S4 I drove has the exact same power band, well obviously, but I agree with Nathan completely, there isn't a lot of low-end power/torque on this like you would expect having driven some other common supercharged applications (similar to an E55 with a large displacement V8 engine with a blower). Logically it makes sense though, if a supercharger is run off the engine, as engine speed climbs the more boost you build. But it has a very nice pull to redline. Still liked the M235i better though when I drove it so that's what I ended up buying, it's a little quicker too, but the interior on the Audi is definitely superior.
omg colorado got snow allready?!?!?!
I agree 100% actually :)) But on the other side of this mindset, i still enjoy because of the cars.
Whats the name of the instrumental at 0:01 to 0:15?
Beauty.
I drove one of these today and discovered it has launch control.
0-60 (at sea level without extra passengers) should be under 5 seconds.
And you won't need the paddles for that.
Question, regarding the smart key. Do you have to take the key out of your pocket and place it into the key slot then push the button to start, or can you simply leave it in your pocket and push the start button, thanks in advance.
the white really looks good in with the backround, but i would like see the the black pearl version
Why didn't you guys test it with the launch control!? That's why the motor only revved to 1500 rpm's. With the launch control on you launch at 3000 rpm's and get 0-60 in 4.9 seconds. What a bunch of rookies!
You got that right!! One of these Audis blew the doors off my Avalon which gets to 60 in 6 flat.
And it's not 7-speed "automatic"... I can't believe how amateur the reviewers are.
Exactly. The DSG is the same Porche gearbox -- two manual transmissions, two clutches, synced together. I love mine. '14 Phantom Black S5 (the M3 smoker)
I live in Colorado and it snowed yesterday
@romanmicagearguy: Is it just me or has it been a while since Dave has done a segment? :)
No worries, but you do realize that we did this test at 1 mile above sea level.
Nice
so great a car i bought one ;-)
This S5 is really really sexy! They dont sell the manual here in Europe but I think the auto would suit this car better since its got so much tech like the quattro system. But I just wished that these auto transmission could let the driver hit the red line:)
I like your real world road testing, I mean it is real, 2 big guys on normal roads.
The manufacturers use guys built like Valentino Rossi to do the 0-60 test
stark
Two questions
1. For a launch what is the ideal rev you should mantain?
2. If I just keep driving it in sports mode, will it have any negative impact on the engine in long run?
1. All cars are different. Just see what what rev your car likes to launch at.
2. Driving in sport mode won't really do any harm. It just uses a bit more fuel. But if you run it hard in sport mode (or even Drive mode), have a turbo, and don't let it cool down before turning the car off, you can really damage the turbo.
Tristan Rios
Thx for the info!
Such a nice car. It more exclusive than 335
What's the price for this car? Anyone
that guy(Sws9999) is a keyboard "know it all". He is like the guy who watched the military channel special a bout Navy Seals, then comes on you tube to talk about all the top secret missions he went on with Seal team six. Those kind of comments betray their ignorance and immaturity. Keep up the good work and don't listen to bottom feeders. Thanks, guys
That car is a SEXY BEAST!
We don't think that Nathan lives in a van down by the river ;-)
Love your videos, but hate the fact that you frequently do 0-60 runs with 2 people in the car. Would prefer to see the performance with just a driver.
Doesn't really matter. That's like complaining that the drivers weight is 250 instead of 125.
@@baseballhunter42 it kind of does matter, especially to those of us who are actually good enough drivers to tell the difference. I can feel something as minimal as the difference between an empty tank and full tank of gas. Don't be hating simply because you don't think it's a big deal to you. It does matter, and it will make a difference in performance numbers.
@@IronicTonic8 What kind of fantasy world do you live in? That minimal of weight drop makes no difference in any unmodified street driven car. If you're actually worried about weight you wouldn't be driving with stock seats, clown wannabe.
@@IronicTonic8 4 years and you're still a dumbass.
@@baseballhunter42 it's easy to insult someone you don't know over the internet. Fortunately everything you say has zero meaning. I happen to be an engineer so I'd be interested in your take as to why the basic laws of physics don't seem to apply here. Pleaae, enlighten us as to how additional weight does not affect the 0-60 time of a car.... maybe you should use some math to help prove your point. I'm all ears...
Downhill in the 0-60 test!
Pretty true though. Except for the last one.
What about the Launch Control?!!
RS5?
A bit on the exaggerating side my friend, regarding the car's interior. I've seen this vehicle's interior; It's pretty, don't me wrong, but not like oh wow!!! Look at that awesome interior . Great performance tho.
They fixed it
My friend has one and its a nice ride, the sound is amazing, but it lags a bit on power, but I still like my BMW more
Is the interior a lot worse than the C400? Crossshoping for a DD. I also he ard the C400 makes pretty much no engine noise.
It will replace a400 hp '13 WRX STI so engine noise is mandatory! :)
You're comparing a coupe and a sedan. Wait for the redesigned C Coupe.
Taskin Forkan it's probably going to be even nicer for the Coupe, like the S63 coupe is nicer than the sedan.
I went with an Audi A6 and keeping my STI for now.. best of both worlds but comes at quite the price. :) lol
one more thing. He would never EVER say those things to your face. No, his insults are going to come from the safety he enjoys behind a computer screen in his mother's basement. It takes guts to put yourself out there(making a video) like that so everybody on the web can see it.Keep up the good work
ppl needa stop complaining about the audi's 0-60 or professional track time 0-60. This is a real world testing not a track with all the perfect environments. These guys have no reason to lie to people about the 0-60 time.
Wen Sun NOPE these guys can't drive worth shit.... I can hit a 6.4 in my A5 on the road
Superchargers are not supposed to have lag. That's the point, you don't expect lag with super chargers. That's why it's called Turbo Lag....
🔥
4.9 is for manual I believe. Car and driver and other publications frequently quote a 4.4 second 0-60 (S4 Even) Even at these elevations upper 5s seems high. Unless I missed it I did think they used launch control, a feature available on the S5
Paul Ajlouny Should be 4.7-4.9 these guys can't drive all of their review 0-60's are F'd
They're at a mile above sea level, you lose up to 15% on forced induction engines and up to 25% on naturally aspirated engines. The research by people like Harvey Epstein, one of the foremost tuners out here, supports that.
this car competes against the 335 coupe. the msrp is around 50k-55k(dont quote me on that). id say the high performance version, the RS5 is more of a competitor to those you mentioned
AUDI IS THE BEST OF DE BESTE!!
If you’re on the road, paddle shift down and kick it! wow
3:50 gear change fuel blip! but then this is a very good review of the car. I think this car is way under-ratted and is a representation of what a good car is. haha
Awesome way to destroy the clutch. Full throttle and holding the brake. ITS A DUAL CLUTCH NOT A TORQUE CONVERTED AUTO.... USE LAUNCH CONTROL
I think this car looks better in metallic dark grey with a white interior. ;)
The place I live in (Canada) S5 is only $1000-2000 more than a 435i but in most CZcams reviews the S5 is a tiny bit faster. Both brilliant car tho, I would buy both if I have the money.
Correct your description should say S5 not A5
Well Audi is the best in its class so you cant blame them.
앞에 번호판 없는거 너무 좋네
우리나란 앞에 번호판이 법인데ㅜ
435i x 0-60 5.5 S5 5.7 so about a tie. But You choose S5 because it better daily driver..? Explain pls.
Thomas Karl The Audi has a spectacular engine that has a way better fuel mileage than the BMW has. As you can see below, the difference is big. The S5 is also much more sexy looking. I test drove both cars, and I love both. But the S5 is just such a good looking car, so nice to drive, it'll be impossible for me to take the BMW over the Audi.
Bmw 4 series City- 23 / highway-35.
Audi S5 City-18/ highway-28.
this or wait if audi for the quattro to come out
Check out 3:15. You can clearly see the jizz on the headrest!
MisterBrauner hahaha I totally saw it too
Did they rescue the doggie??
I'd say the A5 has more of a feminine look although it is nice, it doesn't look aggressive or dominating to be masculine. Audi does all the extra trim stuff nicely.
Pretty impressive to haul two big dudes from 0-60 in 5.7 seconds. From mile high up.
What's the MSRP in this tester, it competes with M3, IS-f, CtS-v. Is it the only 6 cylinder in that class? Sans 2013 M3?
The background Music needs to change lol
Don’t want no scrub!🎹
Nice but not feeling the price tag
nate = matt foley, motivational speaker. bahahaha
you launched it wrong, you aren't supposed to brake launch like that with a dsg gearbox and you're just hurting the gearbox. use launch control
this car is capable of 4.5s in 0-60. Dunno what these dudes are doing
They're in higher altitude and with higher altitude is less air for the engine, which makes their times different from manufactured tested times. They even mention it in nearly every video. Go to 5:45.
Tired of people giving so much hate on these guys when they're just being ignorant... They review hundreds of cars, so I'm pretty sure they now how to launch a car correctly for a 0-60 time...
Abednego Tamba how did u get 4.5 seconds? On the Audi website it post 4.9..... and that speed is on the track with controlled environments so the car perform well and they can market that speed and time... These guys review cars so they have no reason to lie to ppl
Wen Sun Abednego Tamba They weren't using launch control; that's why the car wouldn't let them rev higher than 2000 rpm's when they tried the first time. They should have done their research before making this review.
i think you you mean the RS5 is capable of 4,5sec
this one is the S5, little bit confusing here
Saw a vid with a guy doing it in 4.5 and the reason why was that he used lunch control because after he did it w/o launch control and got 5.7
3.8 secs to 60 for mine without launch control stage 1 revo
A veryyyyy fast car, for it's price (60g base brand new) a great car. You get a good amount of luxury and a very good looking car, maintenance I'm not to sure about, but I believe that Jeeps don't have many problems but I may be wrong, again you should get the warranty with the vehicle and you will be fine. Only problems with these vehicles are a VERY high flip over rate which can be extremely dangerous also including that they are very quick, so that might be an issue. And also only 15 mpg.
Audi in the late 90's had horrible maintenance issues, but over the last decade they have improved much. Hardly any problems with every model, except you still want to get a warranty just so you don't need to pay for that rare issue. If you want decent luxury and good mpg, Audi is great for the durability and luxury, but mpg I'm not sure Audi is for you in that case. The Audi Q5 (suv) brand new about 40g which will give you luxury but averaged out about 23 mpg, decent but not great.
Needs a better exhaust system my opinion
