2008 Audi A5 / S5 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 2dr Coupe turbocharged 170hp 2.0L I4 Diesel
6-speed manual AWD
Not room enough for sufficient leg space for both front and rear passengers at the same time. Rear seat room is tight. Makes you want to avoid having rear passengers in the car. Typical for a 2-door. see full Audi A5 / S5 review
