The S5 is the high-performance version of Audi’s A5 four-seat coupe and convertible that joined the Audi lineup for 2008 between the redesigned TT coupe and the R8 supercar to give Audi a complete line of performance coupes. The S5 incorporates many elements from the Nuvolari concept of 2003 for a combination of elegance and sportiness that Walter de’Silva, head of Volkswagen Group Design, describes as “the most beautiful car I have ever designed.” Nuvolari design elements include Audi’s trademark trapezoidal grille framed by rectangular headlights, a very thick C-pillar, frameless windows, and a waistline that flows upwards around the wheel arches to give the car a dynamic, sporty character.
