Once you get past the name, the 2023 Audi A5 Sportback S line 45 TFSI quattro Prestige is a great car. Just don’t expect anyone except Audi enthusiasts to understand what it is exactly. Instead, if you have a family that enjoys spirited and comfortable driving in the wet Pacific Northwest, go down to your nearest Audi dealership and order one. You won’t be sorry.
For the uninitiated, here’s a quick explanation of the name from someone had to do a little research. The A5 is a largish compact Audi that comes in several body styles, including a sedan, a convertible and a hatchback, which is called Sportback. S line is a trim level that includes a body package, special wheels and more, but is a little confusing because Audi also sells S versions of the A5 that offer even more performance.
“I am a community journalist because that is where the greatest need is. There are many sources of information and opinion about international and national issues. But most people are more affected by what happens in their local communities. That is where they live, work and shop. That is where their children go to school. That is where their elected officials, business owners and labor leaders are most accessible. And that is why people need the most current information what is happening — or, more importantly, what is going to happen — in their communities.
Providing accurate and up-to-date information that people need to make well-informed decisions on the issues they care about is what community journalism is all about.”
