Audi Launches New A5/S5 Range In Singapore

IN Audi, Audi Singapore, A5, S5, Sportback, Premium Automobiles

Just when the svelt and sexy A5 was beginning to look dated amongst its competitiors, Audi reveals the updated and face-lifted model.

For most part, the Veloster drives very well. The steering feels accurate, there’s little body roll, the brakes are strong and assuring, the gearbox swaps between cogs smoothly even when you’re doing it the “+/-“ way. And there’s good composure while roving bumpy roads at speed. Importantly, with or without traction control working, the front suspension does a grand job of transferring all the power to the road without undue tricks (what understeer?).
