Audi is breaking the trend with their new S5 Cabriolet by continuing to offer a standard soft-top. Other high end German automakers like BMW, Volvo, and Mercedes Benz have introduced hi-tech folding hardtops.

The car has a very well made soft top that is able to withstand climate extremes. Audi says that the soft top takes up less trunk and rear passenger space making it the right choice for a mid to small convertible.

The current line of standard A5 vehicles will also be available in a drop-top version. Audi offers 3 engine choices a 4 cylinder, a 6 cylinder, and a turbocharged six cylinder (found in the S5).

Audi has discontinued the A4 cabriolet and will solely build the S5.
