A new era of RS performance is coming

The all-new Audi RS 5 marks a bold step forward for Audi Sport – introducing its first ever high-performance plug-in hybrid. Combining electrification with unmistakable RS DNA, the next generation RS 5 delivers extraordinary power, advanced technology and everyday usability.

Expected to arrive in New Zealand from September 2026, the RS 5 Avant brings together motorsport performance and cutting-edge hybrid innovation.

Available for Test Drive with Armstrong’s Audi Wellington

Electrified performance
A revolutionary hybrid powertrain delivers 470 kW and 825 Nm, launching from 0–100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds. With over 80 km of electric range, the 2.9L twin-turbo V6 and electric motor combine for instant response and efficiency – without compromising RS performance.

Quattro, reimagined
Dynamic Torque Control introduces electromechanical torque vectoring to the rear axle, enhancing agility, traction, and precision. The result is a more engaging and confident drive, whether on winding roads or open highways.

Unmistakably RS
A wider stance, flared fenders, and darkened Matrix LED headlights define its aggressive presence, complemented by an RS sport exhaust, large alloy wheels, and a sculpted rear diffuser. Inside, RS sport seats, a flat-bottom steering wheel, and performance-focused displays create a cockpit built around the driver.

Coming to New Zealand

The RS 5 Avant is currently scheduled to arrive in New Zealand from September 2026.
