2025 Audi A3 Sportback
A3 and S3 (updated models)
Vehicle type: **Premium small car
**Launched: April
Audi’s luxury and sporty small car combo are updated for 2025.
Standard equipment is bolstered with an S-line interior package that includes sports seats (with electric adjustment for the driver) and perforated leather steering wheel (with ‘S’ logo) that was previously an option. The 35TFSI also gains a larger, 12.3-inch digital driver cluster.
Design changes are otherwise subtle, with the A3 adopting sportier front and rear bumpers, and new-look four-rings logo. Both the A3 and S3 feature a re-profiled grille.
The S3 gains extra power and torque for the 2.0-litre turbo four-cylinder – up 17kW and 20Nm to 245kW/420Nm. The S3 also gains the torque splitter feature from the RS3 which can divert engine torque to whichever wheel has the best traction, plus larger front brakes.

2025 Audi A5 sedan
A5 and S5
Vehicle type: **Midsize sedan and wagon
**Launched: June 2025
In accordance with Audi’s new “even numbers for EVs” naming convention, the combustion-powered A4 will now be known as the A5.
The new A5 and S5 are built on Audi’s PPC (Premium Platform Combustion) platform, with mild-hybrid powerplants available across the model range. Improvements to steering, handling, braking and suspension are integral parts of the new platform, says Audi.
The A5 offers the following powerplants: A 110kW or 150kW variant of the 2.0-litre TFSI petrol engine, a 150kW 2.0-litre TDI diesel, and, for the range-topping S5, a 270kW 3.0-litre TFSI Petrol engine. Prices are not yet confirmed, but expect to pay about $80,000 for the base model.
A major step-up on interior tech is the 11.9-inch driver display, 14.5-inch main screen, and optional 10.9-inch passenger display.

2025 Audi RSQ8 Performance
RSQ8 Performance
Vehicle type: **Large performance SUV-Coupe
**Launched: July 2025
Audi enters Formula 1 in 2026 and it used this year’s Australian Grand Prix to debut its most powerful combustion model yet – the 471kW RSQ8 Performance.
Over the outgoing standard RSQ8, the twin-turbo petrol V8 gains 30kW, with torque increasing from 800 to 850Nm. That in turn lowers the sporty SUV’s 0-100km/h sprint ability by two-tenths to 3.6 seconds.
The price tag is also beefed up, however, with the Audi RSQ8 Performance priced from $255,800 before on-road costs – a $27,500 jump over the non-Performance model.
2024 Audi RS E-Tron GT
E-Tron GT (updated model)
Vehicle type: **Luxury sports sedan (electric)
**Launched: July 2025
Audi will release a revised e-Tron GT in mid-2025, with S, RS and RS Performance variants to be offered.
The E-Tron GT lineup will be faster than ever, with the S, RS, and RS Performance boasting power figures of 500kW/740Nm, 630kW/865Nm, and 680kW/1027Nm respectively. In its most powerful configuration, the E-Tron GT can shift from 0-100km/h in 2.5 seconds.
Prestige within the Audi E-Tron moves beyond the Audi brand, with Porsche aiding in suspension design: Adaptive dual-chamber air suspension with dual-valve dampers will lean and pitch the vehicle via an internal computer to give the driver optimal suspension geometry in any conditions.
