Audi says its entire 2026 production allocation of the new RS5 has been sold. According to the company, European orders are almost twice its forecast, making it the most successful launch in the history of RS models.

The new RS5 is the first Audi Sport performance model with a plug-in hybrid drive. A 2.9-litre twin-turbo V6 works with an electric motor and a 25.9 kWh battery for 639 hp and 825 Nm, sent to all four wheels. It does 0–100 km/h in 3.6 s and up to 285 km/h with an optional package, and can cover up to 83 km on electricity alone.

Where it is built

The RS5 is built in Neckarsulm, Germany. Sales started in Europe, with Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and Japan next, followed by Korea and Taiwan. Audi has not disclosed order numbers or the size of its 2026 production.
