Overview

The Audi A5 Sportback is a distinctive variant of the brand’s A5 lineup of small luxury cars, which also includes a coupe and a convertible. This Audi was introduced just a couple of years ago and gets a refresh in exterior styling and features for 2020. Competitors include the BMW 4 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class as well as the Kia Stinger and Genesis G70.
The A5 Sportback’s sleek design gets updated with a new honeycomb grille inspired by classic Audi performance models. The front end also gets larger air inlets and new trim elements for more aerodynamic looks. LED lighting comes standard front and back, and Premium Plus and Prestige trims each get a distinctive upgraded LED light design. The optional Black optic package adds black trim, exclusive 19-inch wheels, body-matched door handles, and dark aluminum inlays.
The A5 Sportback’s powertrain carries over unchanged. It features a 2.0-liter TFSI 4-cylinder engine, plus a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic (DCT) transmission and all-wheel drive (AWD). This system is good for 248 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque and gets fuel economy ratings of 24 mpg city, 32 highway, and 27 combined on premium gas. Four driving modes come standard for Comfort, Auto, Dynamic and Individual settings, and a sport suspension system is available.
The A5 Sportback’s sophisticated and athletic design carries over inside, across Premium, Premium Plus, and Prestige trims. Standard features include an 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, leather upholstery, heated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, ambient lighting, and a power liftgate. Options include ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and a heated steering wheel.
For 2020, the A5 Sportback gets updated with Audi’s latest infotainment system, the all-new Modular Infotainment Matrix 3. The touchscreen display now measures 10.1 inches and features voice control with cloud connectivity. Audi hasn’t yet specified, but it’s reasonable to assume Bluetooth, Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay will remain standard. The Audi Virtual Cockpit 12.3-inch customizable information display is available. Other options include WiFi connectivity and a 19-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) rated the 2019 A5 Sportback with top Good scores in six crash tests. The National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave the 2020 model a 5-star overall rating out of a possible 5 stars. Standard safety features include a reversing camera, forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, and a pre-collision preparation system. Options include a surround-view camera system, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability, front and rear parking sensors, a head-up display, traffic-sign recognition, and safe-exit assist.
The Audi A5 is a relatively practical option for a small, entry-level luxury car, and the Sportback model adds practicality to Audi's typically strong performance.

I love this car but for me not having ventilated seats is a deal breaker. Everything else about this car is great!

Great car, smooth ride and looks great. What attracted me was the fact it was different than their A4 or A6 sedans you see everywhere. Love the hatchback, the AWD and the looks.

What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Audi A5 Sportback?
At 72.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should run a vehicle history report on any serious candidate and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection before you commit. Pay close attention to bodywork quality, panel alignment, and signs of uneven wear so you can separate a clean example from one that has been repaired.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Audi A5 Sportback?
This looks like a moderate market, so you can shop selectively without expecting every listing to be a bargain.
- Deal availability: 27.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 335 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 7.94% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 72.2% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $21,051.73, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2020 Audi A5 Sportback's resale value?
The current average of $21,326 sits slightly below last year's $23,164.
That softer pricing can help you buy at a more favorable entry point, but it also means future resale gains may be more limited if the market stays soft. If you plan to sell later, condition and documentation will matter more because buyers tend to pay up for cleaner, better-kept examples.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2020 Audi A5 Sportback or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2020 if:
- 27.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 72.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 7.94% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
The bottom line: If you want the strongest balance of current pricing and owner satisfaction, the 2020 is the primary year to focus on. If you're especially price-sensitive, use the softer market to compare against nearby years and target the cleanest, best-documented listing rather than chasing the lowest sticker price alone.
