Is the Audi A5 economical?

The question

I am thinking of buying 2010 Audi A5 basic model. I note the economy quoted is 55mpg. Do you know if this is achievable? Most of my driving will be on motorways.

Hi Patrick,

Yup, it's entirely achievable. I'd say with lots of long motorway miles (and what an ideal car for that task the A5 is) you should easily be able to crack 50mpg, and 55mpg should be possible. Of course, much depends on your driving style - lots of hard acceleration, or excess weight in the car, will hamper your economical efforts.

Let us know how you get on
