Audi A5 Sportback 2.7 TDI CVT 190

The Audi A5 Sportback 2.7 TDI CVT 190 reaches 60 mph in 7.07 s (100 km/h in 7.54 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.54 s, tripping the lights at 88.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.41 s and the eighth mile in 9.96 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the A5 Sportback 2.7 TDI CVT 190

The 2009 Audi A5 Sportback 2.7 TDI CVT 190 is a front-drive turbodiesel car of 1,615 kg with 188 bhp, which works out at 116 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.41 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 4,800th quickest to 60 mph, and the 590th quickest of the 1320 Audis here. Its 88.6 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Audi A5 Sportback 2.7 TDI CVT 190 0-60 time?
The Audi A5 Sportback 2.7 TDI CVT 190 reaches 60 mph in 7.07 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 4,800th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Audi A5 Sportback 2.7 TDI CVT 190 quarter mile time?
15.54 s at 88.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.96 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.41 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Audi A5 Sportback 2.7 TDI CVT 190 have?
188 bhp and 1,615 kg, which is 116 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 1 gears and a quoted top speed of 224 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Audi A5 Sportback 2.7 TDI CVT 190?
Closest here on pace: BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe (F36) 420i xDrive 184 (7.04 s), BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe 220 MHEV 170 (7.14 s), Audi A7 Sportback 2.8 FSI CVT 204 (7.08 s). Each one can be raced against the Audi A5 Sportback 2.7 TDI CVT 190 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Audi A5 Sportback 2.7 TDI CVT 190 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
