Thinking of buying the 2013 Audi A5?
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2013 Audi A5 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Buying the 2013 Audi A5 is a big decision; here is the information we have.
Recalls and complaints
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
Engine and fuel
It uses the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo and front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 27 litres, from its 8.9 L/100 km rating. Every 100 km costs about $15.58 in fuel at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,150 a year for 15,000 miles.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
Space, size and seats
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. The EPA measures its luggage space at 283 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent the A5 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. If the A5 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
Narrowing it down
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 2013 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
Running costs
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$3,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.58 in fuel.
