About the S5 Sportback 9TA

The 2016 Audi S5 Sportback 9TA is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,755 kg with 349 bhp, which works out at 199 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.92 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,335th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 115th quickest of the 1320 Audis here. Its 107.2 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 10 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Audi S5 Sportback 9TA 0-60 time?
The Audi S5 Sportback 9TA reaches 60 mph in 4.23 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,335th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Audi S5 Sportback 9TA quarter mile time?
12.78 s at 107.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.19 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.92 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Audi S5 Sportback 9TA have?
349 bhp and 1,755 kg, which is 199 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 250 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Audi S5 Sportback 9TA?
Closest here on pace: Lexus RZ550e (4.24 s), BMW 340i F30 (4.27 s), BMW iX3 50 NA5 (4.17 s). Each one can be raced against the Audi S5 Sportback 9TA 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 S5 Sportback 9TA is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 10 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.
