The 2011 Audi A5’s horsepower depends on the engine installed. In the United States, the two main options were 211 horsepower from the 2.0-liter turbocharged four and 265 horsepower from the 3.2-liter V6.
Beyond these two gasoline engines, some markets offered additional variants, including diesel options, which carried different horsepower figures. For any individual car, the exact horsepower can vary based on trim, transmission, and drivetrain configuration, so it’s best to verify the specific vehicle’s engine code or window sticker.
Power figures by engine
Here are the two primary horsepower outputs associated with the 2011 A5’s engine lineup, as commonly seen in most markets:
- 2.0-liter TFSI turbocharged inline-four — 211 hp
- 3.2-liter FSI V6 — 265 hp
Note that horsepower can differ slightly depending on the transmission and drivetrain setup (manual vs. automatic, front-wheel drive vs. quattro), but these are the standard figures for the two most widely offered engines in 2011 A5 models.
Market and trim variations
In Europe and other regions, Audi offered additional engines, including diesel options with their own horsepower ratings. The U.S. lineup remained focused on the two gasoline engines listed above. If you are evaluating a specific car, check the vehicle’s VIN or window sticker to confirm the exact horsepower for that chassis.
Summary
The 2011 Audi A5 typically delivered 211 hp from the 2.0T engine and 265 hp from the 3.2 V6, with market-specific variants introducing alternative outputs. For any particular car, verify the exact figure via the engine code or VIN to account for any configuration differences.
