2027 Audi RS5 Review
2027 Audi RS5 Review
Ver originalThe 2027 @Audi RS5 Avant (£90,110 starting) is the brand’s first high-performance plug-in hybrid, and it offers a whopping 630 total horsepower. The new RS5 is also the first Quattro-equipped Audi to have Dynamic Torque Control - meaning it can accurately and immediately put torque to the wheel that needs it most. But all this comes with a catch. It weighs well over 5000 lbs and still remains a forbidden fruit in North America in Avant form. But how does it drive? And how does it compare to the previous generation? Thomas and James can’t wait to find out! Subscribe!

I love that you guys do the Grand Tour now, but you are still our friendly Ontario car reviewers!!
1I didn't think the Audi looked especially nice, then you flashed the new M3 up on screen and I changed my mind.
1I agree with how busy the screens are, really makes information disappear in the mess. I tried my friends new C-class the other day, and there were so many lights and things moving around everywhere on the dash, that it was genuinely difficult to tell your speed at a quick glance.
1Im a die hard top gear fan, watching the new Grand Tour was such a breath of fresh air. You guys managed to pull off something truly magical. Loved it. Enjoyed it.
1remember when the rs5 had the sickest sounding NA V8? me no likey heavy battery hybrid me old man
1When you use water-based colours for painting, you use a cup with water to wash the brush between colour changes. This is the grey you get after 6-7 hours of painting.
1I saw that GR Yaris camera car! I hope we get to see you two review that next!
1As a Canadian I should like the EU, but I cannot contain a seething jealously for their embrace of wagons over SUVs.
1All these years of watching your content, the production quality is even more off the charts 👏👏👏👏
1It’s interesting no body talks about long term reliability of these modern hybrids. G90 BMW M5s are already having tons of suspension issues due to the weight. My neighbor 08 AUDI RS4 is still fun and rock solid 16 years later, let see if these cars can get to that age.
1Man the weight epidemic on cars kills me. Like if you want better performance, better gas milage, cheaper running costs, less road wear, basically everything you want in a car just make it lighter. It seems like these manufacturers are creating so many problems they have to solve in adding weight. I know I would never consider buying a performance car over 4000lbs. Tbf this is coming from a guy who owns a ~1700lbs NA Miata(still gotta get her on the scale)
1fully agree with over complication of carsin the recent years. Somewhere in the middle they had the sweet spot, but now over customizations means, it takes you an hour to set up the car the way you wanted before you could set off
1I was left wanting for more by the last episode. Huge congratulations to you guys and Francis on the Grand Tour
