Features include a lightweight soft-top that opens in 15 seconds, neck level heating option, and an optional quattro sport differential on some models.

Initial engines for Ireland will be two FSI direct injection petrol engines and one TDI diesel.

The S5 will be powered by a new 3.0-litre supercharged V6 TFSI unit with 333hp which offers a 0-100km/h sprint performance of 5.6 seconds.

CO2 emissions of 159 grammes for the 2.0TFSI 211 version draws an annual road tax of just €447.

The range makes its debut at this week’s 3 Irish Open, of which Audi is an official sponsor.
