What Audi S5 do most buyers choose?

The Audi S5 years with the most listings are 2024, 2025, and 2023.

Higher-volume years usually give you more shopping choices, which can make it easier to compare prices, mileage, and equipment. They also tend to be the years where you can find the broadest mix of listings and deal opportunities.

What is the Audi S5's resale value?

Prices are moving lower for both model years shown, which can work in your favor if you're shopping used. The changes are fairly close in size, so neither year stands out as dramatically more stable than the other. That kind of movement can create better entry points for buyers who want to wait for the right listing.

The 2022 and 2018 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

They include: forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control. The S5 also has automatic high-beam headlights, traffic sign recognition, front and rear parking sensors, and a safe exit warning system.

Should I buy a used Audi S5 now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Price trend: The 2022 model is at −6.75% versus a year ago, and the 2018 model is at −8.3%.
• Deal availability: The 2022 model has 32.7% good and great deals, and the 2018 model has 30.1%.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2024 model has the most listings. The Audi S5 offers a rewarding blend of sporty driving character, upscale cabin feel, and everyday usefulness.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: As it did before, the new Audi S5 Sportback features a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 engine. However, the car now has a seven-speed dual-clutch automated manual transmission (DCT) instead of the previous eight-speed automatic, and the standard Quattro all-wheel-drive (AWD) system features Audi’s sport rear differential as standard equipment.
• Tech: In the S5, they include an 11.9-inch Audi Virtual Cockpit digital instrumentation screen and a 14.5-inch Audi Multi Media Interface (MMI) touchscreen infotainment system. With Prestige trim, the right side of the dashboard features a 10.9-inch touchscreen for the front passenger as well.
• Safety: Choose the S5 Premium Plus or Prestige for Adaptive Cruise Assist, which adds a lane-centering assist system in conjunction with the adaptive cruise control. This trim level also adds a surround-view camera system with guidance lines and Park Assist Plus for semi-automated assistance in slotting the S5 into parallel or perpendicular parking spaces.
• Starting price: Trim levels include Premium, Premium Plus, and Prestige variants ranging in price from $63,995 to $71,545, including the $1,295 destination charge.

If you're buying used today, the 2024 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for 2027 inventory to mature.
