2010 Audi A5 Cabriolet Tiptronic

Everyone seems to be buzzing about the superiority of the 2010 Audi A5 Cabriolet’s fabric top. The reason for such an extraordinary interest in a feature that is no way novel to the automobile industry is its success in overcoming the two major issues concerning weaknesses of convertibles. I would be talking about top-up appearance and sound isolation. Structural rigidity is also not an issue here. More than the top, the driving experience it provides is comparable to other A4 or A5 specifically the four-cylinder acceleration, good handling and its exquisite interior.
At a base price of $ 44,925.00, the 2010 Audi A5 Cabriolet Tiptronic comes with standard equipments including the Quattro All-Wheel Drive, 6-speed tiptronic transmission, 2.0L turbocharged engine, 18-inch 10-spoke wheels, Servotronic speed-sensitive steering, Electromechanical Parking Brake, Electronic stabilizer program, leather-trimmed power seats, 10-speaker 180-watt sound system, electronic cruise control, halogen headlights, and front fog lights. Depending on personal preference, owners can opt for the Prestige Model or have additional features through the Comfort Package and Driver Assist Package.
The 2010 Audi models marked the use of the 2.0 liter TFSI direct-injection turbo four-cylinder engine, including the A5 Cabrio. The use of this engine which offers 211 hp at 4,300 to 6,000 rpm and a torque of 258 lb-ft at 1,500 to 4,200 rpm is seen as a wise move and regarded as an impressive refinement in this aspect. The highway- cruising comfort it provides is not something that is freely experienced from four-cylinder vehicles. Steering however proves inadequate. None the less, the smooth and responsive engine more than makes up for the inconvenience.
Going back to the soft top, Audi justifies its use to its affordability in relation to hard-top as well as the better trunk space it allows. It is easy to get claustrophobic in any soft top-convertible but the Audi A5 Cabriolet tries to minimize this effect by placing light-colored liner that adds to the perceived visual height. The unexpected reading light over the rear seat comes out as a delightful surprise even if you are one of those who are not particular about such details. Riding a fabric-roof convertible is a matter of preference. It is not for everyone but Audi provides one of the best models for those who do like the feel of riding on one. It does not disappoint expectations. What you see is what you get.
There are some references made on how the convertible pales in comparison with its coupe sibling. Again, it is all a matter of choice. The 2010 Audi A5 Cabriolet Tiptronic is beautiful in itself and is not meant to be a second-rate version of any other model whether in its own line or not. That is the precisely the essence of choice, options are laid out and you make the choice, no explanations needed.
