New FSI Engine for Audi A5

By Phil Walkley
Audi is ready to bring more FSI effectiveness to the A5 coupe. The brand new four cylindered FSI engine for the A5 coupe merges the petrol injection along with turbo charging thereby increasing the overall performance

The A3, A4, A6 and TT models had used the 1.8-litre turbo petrol unit but it will not be implemented in the A5 1.8TFSI since the latest Audi A5 will be using the high-tech and direct-injected component. It has been declared that the four-cylinder engine that will power the Audi A5 coupe is estimated to be presented by November end. Even care has been taken to incorporate the new design to harmonize the new changes introduced.

The new unit has the fuel-rationing FSI direct petrol injection combined along the output improving turbo charging and is ready to provide 170PS at 4,800rpm along with 250Nm of torque peak which usually is on hand between 1,500rpm to 4,800rpm.The front wheel driven Audi A5 1.8TFSI has six-speed manual transmission and due to performance optimization changes, it surpasses 62mph in just 8.4seconds and can attain a top speed of 140mph.You can even order for the latest high-tech and directly injected model of the Audi A5 coupe for an OTR cost of ₤26,190 although the first UK are likely to hit the market by late November.

The well-known 1.8-litre Turbo petrol engine that had been used in the A3, A4, A6 and TT versions in the past and will be discontinued in the A5 1.8TFSI because the latest model of A5 will implement the superior and direct injected element. The brand new Audi A5 coupe has been modified accordingly to accommodate the four-cylinder engine and this model will hit the market by end of November.

If we compare the older V6-powered A5 model with the latest four-cylinder edition we can easily note that the huge equipment list has hardly changed. The latest version of Audi A5 coupe has some luxurious fittings like Milano leather-upholstery, three-zone climate control, rear acoustic parking sensors and features that you won’t find elsewhere. The Audi now offers many more features like the Xenon lamps along with LED daytime running lights now that are found only in bigger cars.

The Audi is ready to unveil its new model to replace its successful older predecessor thereby bringing more FSI efficiency to their A5 coupe model.
