1. 2024 Audi A5 Cabriolet 45 TFSI (2.0T All-Wheel Drive)

• Base Price: $55,600
• MPG Combined: 27
• Drive Type: All-wheel drive
• Engine: 2.0-liter inline-4
• Aspiration: Turbocharged
• Transmission: 7-speed automated manual
• Horsepower: 261 
• Torque: 273 lb⁠-⁠ft
• 0-60: 5.6 sec
• Weight: 4,045 lbs
• Length: 184.9 in

The A5 Cabriolet — Audi's way of saying "convertible" — is an A5 coupe with the roof chopped off. In its place is a power-operated soft top. As with the A5 coupe, the more powerful of the A4 sedan's two four-cylinder engines comes standard here. Predictably, the Cabriolet weighs about 300 pounds more than the coupe due to structural reinforcements required by the missing roof, though its highway fuel economy estimate is oddly 1 mpg higher.

2. 2024 Audi S5 Cabriolet (3.0T AWD)

• Base Price: $66,100
• MPG Combined: 22
• Drive Type: All-wheel drive
• Engine: 3.0-liter V6
• Aspiration: Turbocharged
• Transmission: 8-speed automatic
• Horsepower: 349 
• Torque: 369 lb⁠-⁠ft
• 0-60: 4.7 sec
• Weight: 4,167 lbs
• Length: 184.9 in

The S5 Cabriolet drops the top on the S5 coupe and gains some weight in the process, but the turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 will still whisk you to 60 in the mid-4-second range.
