Senner Tuning 2012 Audi S5 Coupe

Senner Tuning has presented their latest project based on the facelift version of Audi S5 Coupe. The tuning company aimed the vision of the flagship RS5 model.

The S5 Coupe is finished in ibis-white paint and has a new front spoiler in RS5 design with original RS5 air intakes as well as fitting an original black RS5 radiator grille. At the rear, Senner added a window spoiler and a restrained boot lid spoiler element. There are also side skirts finished in carbon-fibre. The characteristic Audi rings on the front and rear of the vehicle have been retained in black, and Senner Tuning have placed ‘Supercharged’ badges on the front fenders to give a little something extra. The vehicle’s number plates are illuminated by bright white LEDs.

The rido rolls high-quality Work VS-XX light-alloy wheels with black-coloured anodised star-shaped rims and mirror-finish anodised outer rims. The dimensions are 9J x 20”at the front and 10.5J x 20”at the rear fitted with tein Ultra Sessanta tyres of size 245/30 R20 and 295/25 R20, respectively.

The suspension received a full coilover kit from KW ensuring firm control while cornering at the same time as a smooth ride and great driving comfort.

The 3.0 liter V6 TFSI engine can be boosted from 329HP (242kW) to 429HP (315 kW) and from 440Nm (326 lb-ft) to 501Nm (371 lb-ft). Thanks to the removal of the electronic Vmax (maximum speed) blocker, Senner Tuning’s Audi S5 can fully convert its enhanced performance into forward drive and top line speed.

A four-pipe RS5 exhaust system extending from the catalytic converter, including a downpipe and exhaust flaps, ensures the Audi S5 makes a truly awesome sound.

The interior boasts bicolour fine Nappa leather trim in black and magma-red with contrasting colour stitching either. There is also an interior set from coarse-mesh 600 carbon-fibre, an Audi R8 sports steering wheel, RS5 door handles, including illumination units. A DVD system can be activated to enable DVDs to be shown while driving.

Senner Tuning is offering a special price of €69,990 for this particular car.

Senner’s Audi S5 Coupe 2012

This year, the Audi S5 Coupe roams the streets with a facelift… and a new engine coincidentally. The engine itself is not new new but it is a first in the S5 – The TFSI 3.0 liter V6 unit has been around for the Cabriolet and Sportback versions. Another techy addition that is not your typical facelift is a stop-start system for better fuel efficiency. Other than that, we have new bumpers, a new radiator grille, aluminum wing mirror caps and a different four-pipe exhaust system. Now, while the updated S5 is still hot, the German based Senner company is among the first to pump up the value.

The standard TFSI 3.0 liter V6 brings 329 hp – that’s only 20 hp less than the one found in the pre 2012 S5 models, the FSI 4.2 liter V8. Senner engineers however, have managed to eliminate that small gap. In fact, by being fitted with a power converter and some sports air filters, the TFSI gets further ahead with 377 hp and 500Nm of torque. The exhaust pipes now size up to 100 mm in diameter each, which helps the S5 reach a tone most desirable.

The car sits on a Variant 3 Inox Line-KW coilover suspension, fully adjustable when it comes to height, rebound and pressure. The suspension itself relies on a set of 8,5×20 inch Corniche Challenge wheels with red undercut trim, wrapped in Vredestein Wintrac Extreme 245/30R2090W. Kind of late for winter tires.

Inside, a steering wheel from the R8 had been lift off complete with its paddle shifters. Trough its nicely flat figure, one can glance at the carbon speedometer panel. A DVD system on the other hand will keep the passengers busy (the driver has some corners to bend, so he/she doesn’t need much multimedia).

The whole project is still in process so who knows what Senner might offer in the near future.

Audi RS5 Coupe vs tuned Audi S5 Sportback

Another hard choice – Audi RS5 Coupe or tuned Audi S5 Sportback. Although the second car has two more doors, it is not less sporty, at all.

Firstly, Audi RS5 has a brutal 4.2 liter naturally aspirated V8 with 450PS (331 kW) at 6000RPM and 430Nm (317 lb-ft) at 4000RPM. The redline of the engine is all the way up to 8250RPM. It is mated to a 7-speed S-tronic gearbox, which sends the power to Quattro all-wheel-drive system.

The performance – 0 to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds and a top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph) with speed governor and 278 km/h (173 mph) with optional package.

The car stands on enormous 19” forged aluminum wheels with 265/35-series tires as standard. Customers can also upgrade to 20” wheels with 275/30-series tires as an option. Behind them, there are humongous ventilated wave brake discs – 365 millimeters up front with 8-piston calipers. However, you can order carbon fiber-ceramic discs up front as an option.

Audi RS5 also comes with complete aerodynamics package including sporty front bumper, a new rear bumper with diffuser and a pair of modified side skirts. There is also an interior sport package including leather seats, steering wheel and some elements and logos all over.

Audi RS5 Coupe is priced at €77 700, which is a lot, but it worth every single cent.

On the other hand, we have a nice S5 Sportback with a tuning package from Senner.

It is powered by a 3.0 liter turbocharged V6 with 333PS (245 kW) at 5500RPM and 440Nm (325 lb-ft) of torque at just 2900RPM. After some small modifications like air filter, sport exhaust system including an additional muffler and X-Pipe of stainless steel with the enlarged pipe diameter to 63.5 mm and 4 exhaust pipes of 90×70 mm, and of course an ECU re-map. The power has been increased to a hefty – 445PS (327 kW) and 530Nm (393 lb-ft).

Senner S5 Sportback also comes with Elegant TS-7 wheels in sizes 9.5J x 20” up front and 11J x 20” at the rear fitted with Conti Sport Contact 5P tires in dimensions 255/30 R20 and 295/25 R20, respectively.

The car is finished in black mettalic paint with bright borders, as well as moldings and racks for windows, including a fog-light frame in the same color.

The suspension received adjustable screw thread B16 PSS10 from Bilstein with the possibility of height, pull rate and pressure adjustment in “Senner-tuning”, which is responsible for the low suspension: about 40 mm on the front axle and 35 mm on the rear axle.

The total cost of the upgrades is €15 000 and the original S5 Sportback costs €57 900, so the combined price is “just” €72 900, which is almost 5 thousand less than RS5.

Again, it is very difficult to choose, whether you’ll have the brutal RS5 with its mighty V8 or the more “normal” tuned S5.

2012 Audi A5/S5 Facelift – Sportback, Coupe, Cabriolet

Audi has unveiled the new 2012 A5/S5 model range. A lot of advanced technologies are being added to the Sportback, Coupe, Cabriolet and S5 models. Almost every single detail is improved – the engine, quattro drive and infotainment systems are better now. Audi took care about more efficiency, sportiness and intelligence.

However, the new exterior includes restyled front and rear lights and slightly bigger dimensions. Exactly, the new A5/S5 has grown bigger with a millimeter (0.04 inch). The A5 Sportback is 4.71 meters (15.45 ft) long; the Coupé and the Cabriolet 4.63 meters (15.19 ft). The range of colors has been reshuffled and now includes 16 colors.

The engine range has been revised and now includes a 3.0 TFSI supercharged V6 with 272PS (200 kW) for the A5 and 333PS (245 kW) for the S5. The well-known 1.8 liter TFSI power unit with 170PS (125 kW) now have extraordinary fuel economy – 5.7 liters per 100km (41+ mpg). The output of the 2.0 TFSI remains unchanged at 211PS (155 kW).

The 2.0 liter TDI delivers 177PS (130 kW) and achieves 4.7 liters per 100 km on average. The CO2 emissions are cut to 122 g/km. The 3.0 TDI has 204PS (150 kW) and is the most fuel-efficient six-cylinder unit in its class worldwide. In the A5 Coupé with multitronic, it consumes on average 4.9 liters (48 US mpg) of fuel and emits just 129 g/km of CO2.

2012 Audi A5 Sportback 1.8 TFSI is priced at €33 350 in Germany.

2012 Audi S5

It is available as Sportback, Coupe and Cabriolet. The engine is 3.0 liter TFSI with 333PS (245 kW) with average fuel consumption of just 8.1 liters per 100 km. 0 to 100 km/h in 4.9 and top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph) – electronically limited.

Visual cues to the updated S models include new lights, modified body details and new crystal-effect paint finishes. Subtle changes can also be found in the interior. The most important technical updates for the Audi S5 are quattro drive with the crown-gear center differential and electromechanical power steering. The special S sport suspension and the standard 18” wheels deliver the power to the road.
