2-Line Blurb

The all-electric 2025 Audi RS e-tron GT Performance is the company’s fastest production car, phenomenally powerful and pretty darn handsome. Maximum range is 278 miles.

Power, Ride and Handling

Driving Impressions

The new RS e-tron GT Performance buzzes with an incredible 912 horsepower (last year’s maximum was a still-awesome 637 hp), zipping from zero to 60 mph in 2.4 seconds with launch control. This statistic makes the RS e-tron GT Performance the fastest-accelerating production Audi yet.
Sure, the Tesla Model S Plaid is claiming 1.99 seconds, the Lucid Air Sapphire claims 1.89 seconds, and the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT (which isn’t turbocharged) posts 2.2 seconds. But those rivals break the 1,000-hp barrier. Anyway, during this kind of acceleration, as our human senses try to catch up with our mega-powered electric cars, a few tenths here and there are more academic than anything else.
A new push-to-pass function at speeds above 19 mph gives a 94-hp boost for up to 10 seconds (for that total of 912 hp), and Dynamic drive mode is selected automatically. After 10 seconds of recuperation, this function is ready to go again.
On the subject of modes, the RS e-tron GT Performance gains a new RS Performance setting calibrated especially for twisting roads and challenging tracks, optimizing power delivery and suspension. The car also has driver-configurable RS1 and RS2 modes. Rear-wheel steering is standard, enhancing agility and maneuverability.
<a href="https://www.kbb.com/reviews/2025-audi-rs-e-tron-gt-performance-first-drive/">We’ve driven the new RS e-tron GT Performance </a>on the road and the track. Trackside, we discovered that Audi’s official claim of 2.4 seconds to 60 mph is conservative. We’d say 2.1 or 2.2 is well within the realms of possibility. The car also keeps its composure through fast corners. On regular roads, we found the RS e-tron GT Performance has a civilized side. Select Comfort mode, and this car can easily make good on its grand touring promise. Just keep an eye on the speedometer, because this near-silent rocket takes hardly any time to reach (and exceed) speed limits.
Range and Charging
The 2025 RS e-tron GT Performance has a maximum range of 278 miles. For reference, the EPA rated last year’s RS e-tron GT at 249 miles.
Using a DC fast charger, quicker battery replenishment is also possible, going from 10% to 80% in 18 minutes. Last year’s 21.5 minutes was hardly the slowest in the class, but we’re always pleased to get back on the road as soon as possible. Incidentally, the RS e-tron GT Performance is built at a carbon-neutral facility.

Stunning Exterior

Exterior

We might as well come straight out and say we like the looks of the RS e-tron GT Performance. A lot. This Audi is a low-slung, sleek sedan that looks ready to slice through the air with a flex of the right foot. In our opinion, the company’s design approach works so well here. The differences between this and the somewhat dialed-down S e-tron GT center on details like the air intakes.
A roof of forged carbon (as opposed to the more common woven carbon fiber) is available exclusively with the RS e-tron GT Performance. When selecting this optional package, forged carbon is also deployed on the bumpers, side sills, side mirrors, and rear diffuser. Special dark-finished RS-design 21-inch alloy wheels are included as well.
Arkona White is the only no-cost color &#8212; the rest go for $595. That’s unlikely to be a big deal for someone spending nearly $170,000 on their new RS e-tron GT Performance. Sizewise, the RS e-tron GT Performance is similar to its Porsche Taycan cousin.

FAQs

Our Favorite Features and Tech

Favorite Features

Dual charging ports 
There’s one on each side, making life a little more convenient.
HD Matrix-design LED headlights with Laserlight 
These are standard, providing excellent illumination with a white/blue light yet adapting automatically to prevent other drivers from being dazzled.
Front seats 
As well as being exemplary sport seats with plenty of support and hours-long comfort, they also come with standard heating, ventilation, and massage functions.
Head-up display 
Vital information projected onto the windshield within the driver’s line of sight is a cool piece of tech, and it’s standard here.
Bang &amp; Olufsen audio 
Another standard feature, Bang &amp; Olufsen makes some of the clearest and most detailed high-end sound systems.
Dynamic Plus package 
This options bundle includes an active suspension with electro-hydraulic dampers and ceramic brakes. We’ve experienced similar suspensions in several vehicles, and they’re incredibly effective.

Elegant Interior

Interior

All the usual Audi hallmarks are here, such as high-class materials (fine Nappa leather upholstery is standard), elegant designs, and exemplary build quality. Many sporty cars have flat-bottomed steering wheels &#8212; there’s one here with a flattened top as well. Paying homage to the 1994 Audi Avant RS 2 (a collaboration with Porsche), the 12.3-inch digital driver information display has a white speedometer and power meter.
We’d call the RS e-tron GT Performance a 4-seater, because few people will want to sit in that little center spot in the back. And with rear legroom measuring just 32.2 inches, while the sleek roof impacts rear headroom, this is not the most accommodating luxury sedan. That’s not the point of this car, however.

KBB Editors' Overview

There’s a hierarchy to Audi vehicles, and RS &#8212; like this 2025 RS e-tron GT Performance &#8212; is at the top. Actually, the Performance part pushes this sleek 4-door machine beyond anything else in the <a href=":censored:19:4fe1c87dd2:/audi/">Audi</a> garage. With an awesome 912 horsepower and the ability to accelerate to 60 mph in only 2.4 seconds, the RS e-tron GT Performance is a remarkable machine. It&#8217;s the most powerful and fastest-accelerating production car the company has ever created. It’s made all the more desirable by its polished Audi designs inside and out.
Based on the same platform as the Porsche Taycan, the original e-tron GT electric sports sedan debuted for the 2022 model year. Audi keeps improving it, so there are two extremely powerful variants this year.

An upgraded battery this year with reworked thermal management results in an extra 29 miles of range, along with faster charging. Battery capacity is relatively large at 105 kilowatt-hours (kWh).
<h3> 4-Year/50,000-Mile Warranty</h3>
Audi’s new-car warranty lasts four years or 50,000 miles, whichever happens first. That’s par for the course among luxury European marques. The battery pack is covered for eight years or 100,000 miles.
<h3>Safety Ratings</h3>
The Audi RS e-tron GT Performance has yet to be crash-tested by any domestic agency. However, the Euro NCAP program gave the closely related Porsche Taycan a maximum 5-star overall score. Standard safety equipment includes forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, intersection assistance, and blind-spot monitoring.

The all-new 2025 Audi S5 is a compact luxury car with an emphasis on sportiness.

Giving free rein to all 362 horses, the S5 will gallop from standstill to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds, 0.2 of a second quicker than the outgoing S5 Sportback. For comparison, the BMW 440i xDrive Gran Coupe has 386 hp yet hits 60 mph a tenth after the S5, while the Mercedes-AMG C 43 brings 416 hp to the race and crosses the line at exactly the same time as the Audi.
The S5 also comes with a sport-tuned suspension as standard, while offering the option of an adaptive air suspension that has greater differences between its Comfort, Dynamic and Balanced modes than the outgoing S5 Sportback’s. Dynamic is firmer. Comfort is smoother.
<h3>Fuel Economy</h3>
Owners of a new S5 can expect to achieve 22 mpg in combined city/highway driving. The BMW M440i xDrive tops this little table by returning 27 mpg combined, while the C 43 matches the new S5.

Smart Exterior

The clever thing about the new S5 and its regular A5 stablemate is how the 4-door hatchback body brings great practicality, yet it’s disguised by a sleek profile. Audi has given both cars a visual punch, while the S5 gains a few more aerodynamic additions compared with the A5.
The standard alloy wheel size is 19 inches, with 20-inch wheels offered as an option.

All-wheel drive 
It’s a common feature and comes as standard on the new S5. But that doesn’t mean we should take it for granted, because it provides great grip and traction.
Bang &amp; Olufsen audio 
The top version of two superb B&amp;O setups available is a surround-sound system with 810 watts going through 20 speakers, four of which are in the headrests of the front seats.
Navigation prompts 
Admittedly, we’ve all heard that disembodied voice telling us to turn right in 700 feet (or whatever). The clever thing here is that such prompts can come through the new S5’s aforementioned driver-side headrest speakers, so as not to disturb any other occupants.
Audi Advanced Key 
The S5 senses the presence of the Advanced Key, allowing drivers to open the door (or tailgate) without having to get the fob out of a pocket or purse. This might seem like a small thing, but we’ve often found little details make life easier.
Powered tailgate 
Another detail to make life easier, this is standard in every new S5.
Matrix-design LED headlights 
As well as offering a distinctive lighting signature, these standard items provide great illumination.

Multi-Faceted Interior

We’ve always been happy to sit in Audi seats, appreciating their combination of cushioning and support. In S models, those seats gain more bolstering to keep occupants in place whenever conditions conspire for a bout of spirited cornering. And you just know the new S5 will be doing plenty of that.
OLED displays form the new Digital Stage that Audi installs in its A5 and S5 cars. Driver information is provided by an 11.9-inch instrument cluster, a central 14.5-inch touchscreen handles infotainment duties, and there’s an optional extra 10.9-inch screen for the front passenger.
For those times when the S5 has to carry more than two adults, 36.1 inches of rear legroom should be enough to quell most gripes about passenger space. The outgoing S5 already had a slight edge over the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe in this respect, now there’s an extra inch.
This latest S5 also has a massive 22.6 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats (1.6 more than before), expanding to 37 cubic feet with those seats folded. To compare, the 4 Series Gran Coupe goes from 16.6 to 45.5 cubic feet.

This is the new 2025 Audi S5. Not the old 2025 Audi S5 Sportback. We thought we would clear this up straight away. It turns out that the 2025 model year is particularly special because it plays host to the outgoing S5 Sportback while ringing in the all-new S5, which also has the same sleek hatchback style, but there’s no mention of Sportback in the name.
As any <a href="https://www.kbb.com/audi/">Audi</a> aficionado will know, the S5 is the hotter version of the A5 luxury compact car. And as any frequent reader of our reviews will know, we love Audi’s S cars. Not just for the extra power, but also for the higher equipment levels and sportier poise to their suspensions. It’s the whole package that we find so satisfying. This fresh S5 is set to fill the big shoes (tires?) of its predecessor and even push the bar higher.

The 2025 Audi S5 has a starting sticker price of $61,195, with the range-topping Prestige kicking off at $68,745

Premium Plus trim tends to be a popular choice among S5 buyers. Rivals include the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/bmw/4-series/">BMW 4 Series</a> Gran Coupe, specifically the M440i xDrive, and the sedan-only <a href="https://www.kbb.com/mercedes-benz/mercedes-amg-c-class/">Mercedes-AMG C</a> 43, both starting a little higher than this Audi. The <a href="https://www.kbb.com/acura/tlx/">Acura TLX</a> Type S sedan undercuts all three German contenders, but doesn’t have the power to match.
Before buying a new S5 compact sport/luxury car, check the Kelley Blue Book Fair Purchase Price to know what you should be paying. Resale values of the previous generation have been a fraction below average. Recouping more money when selling a vehicle can mean a bigger down payment and lower monthly payments on the next one.

Engine & Transmission

The new S5 employs a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 making 362 hp and 406 lb-ft. This goes to all four wheels through a 7-speed automatic transmission. For reference, the previous S5 came with 349 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque, and we never thought that model was even a little underpowered.
The also-new regular 2025 Audi A5 is reviewed separately.
<h3>4-Year/50,000-Mile Warranty</h3>
Audi’s new-vehicle and powertrain warranties last four years or 50,000 miles, whichever happens first. This is typical among European luxury car makers. Audi also includes four years of roadside assistance.
<h3>Safety</h3>
The new S5 comes with forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking as standard, along with several other driver assistance features.

The incoming 2025 S5 is built on a new platform enabling greater interior space, technology takes a step up, while the V6 engine generates more muscle. This car also replaces the erstwhile S4 sedan.

2025Genesis Electrified G80

2025Genesis Electrified G80 Archives - Kelley Blue Book

The all-electric 2025 Genesis Electrified G80 is a fine midsize luxury sedan and has a maximum range of 282 miles.

<ul>
<li>So-so range: 282 miles</li>
</ul>

Two electric motors, all-wheel drive, and a meaty 365 horsepower work together to propel the Electrified G80 from a standstill to 60 mph in a rapid 4.1 seconds. Of course, it does this in near silence, so the sensation of speed is a little subdued. Our point, though, is that the Electrified G80 can be quick enough for decisive moves. It’s also superbly comfortable and stable, which is exactly what a luxury car needs to be. We even like the feel of the steering and brakes. There’s nothing here that needs getting used to &#8212; it’s all easy to take in and appreciate.
For comparison, the BMW i5 eDrive40 (with just one motor and rear-wheel drive) makes do with 335 hp and is almost two seconds slower to reach 60 mph.
<h3>Range and Charging</h3>
The maximum range covered by the Electrified G80 is 282 miles. That’s kind of OK, but the most affordable BMW i5 can do 295 miles, and the Mercedes-Benz EQE sedan will cover 308 miles. The Tesla Model S and Lucid Air can go even further at a price &#8212; the least expensive Model S is still capable of 410 miles, while the base Lucid Air Pure is rated at 420 miles. That said, we still never felt anxious about range when we drove the Electrified G80.
Using a DC fast charger, the battery goes from 10% capacity to 80% in about 22 minutes. That’s pretty much the same as most rivals, with only the Lucid Air turning in a noticeably faster time.

Appropriate Exterior

There’s a Russian doll element to the styling of Genesis sedans, with many design cues repeated in different sizes. However, the basic look is, to our eyes, perfect for the class &#8212; upscale and arguably handsome. It doesn’t emphasize its electric credentials. A keen observer will notice that the grille differs from the gasoline-powered G80 (<a href="https://www.kbb.com/genesis/g80/">which we review separately</a>) but not much else. This car is a midsize luxury sedan, so its dimensions are similar to electric versions of the BMW 5 Series (i5) and Mercedes-Benz E-Class (EQE).

One-pedal driving 
Paddles behind the steering wheel enable different levels of brake regeneration. At its highest, the brakes start working as soon as the driver lifts off the accelerator. The car can be driven using just this one pedal most of the time, especially in the stop-and-go of city traffic, hitting the brakes only when a firmer stop is necessary. It’s easy to get used to and easy to miss when it’s not there.
Highway Driving Assist 
It’s not a hands-free system, but this standard feature&#8217;s steering assistance helps lighten the load on freeway stretches, especially when used in tandem with adaptive cruise control. We’ve noticed that all the driver assistance features Genesis offers work particularly well.
Lexicon audio 
Go into any top-class recording studio anywhere in the world, and Lexicon equipment will probably be used. This standard 21-speaker, 1,050-watt surround-sound system in the Electrified G80 makes it seem like you’re back in that studio again.
Remote Smart Parking Assist 
Drivers can inch the Electrified G80 into or out of a parking space while standing outside and pressing a button on the key fob. This is clever stuff, and it&#8217;s part of the optional Prestige package.
Blind Spot View Monitor 
A part of the Prestige package’s inventory goes beyond the usual “red triangle in the side mirror” blind-spot monitoring and shows real-time video in the digital driver information display. We’ve experienced this in many Genesis vehicles and think it’s a great innovation.
Solar roof 
This optional roof-mounted panel of photovoltaic material can (according to Genesis) add about 700 miles of range a year.

Plush Interior

Just like each German luxury manufacturer has its own particular approach to interior design, so does Genesis and it tends to go for the plusher side of things. The Electrified G80 has more than its fair share of fine leather, juxtaposed by cool technology with a generously sized 14.5-inch infotainment touchscreen whose graphics are just as sharp as the leather is soft.
Fitting an electric vehicle’s battery into a car designed originally for a combustion engine has affected rear passenger space and the trunk area, compared with the regular G80. It loses about two inches of headroom and three inches of legroom, so check at the dealership if 36.6 inches and 35.9 inches (respectively) are sufficient. The trunk shrinks by a couple of cubic feet to 10.8, which is less than a compact Honda Civic. If these are issues, we’ve found that the BMW i5 is more accommodating, and the Lucid Air’s rear quarters are exceptionally spacious.
In the pursuit of saving weight, Genesis doesn’t offer a moonroof with the Electrified G80.

Lots of equipment for the price, unbeatable warranties, a classy interior, and great tech &#8212; we think the 2025 Genesis Electrified G80 is a must-consider car for anyone looking to drive around in electric-powered luxury. Although <a href="https://www.kbb.com/genesis/">Genesis</a> also makes a couple of all-electric SUVs, this is the company’s only electric vehicle (EV) in sedan form. And yes, it is derived from the terrific gasoline-powered G80. We’d say that was a good thing.
We’ve logged hundreds of hours driving and evaluating this generation of <a href="https://www.kbb.com/electric-car/best-luxury-electric-cars/">luxury electric cars</a>, including the Genesis Electrified G80.

The 2025 Genesis Electrified G80 has a starting sticker price of $76,225, with the range-topping Prestige kicking off at $80,975.

Among the rivals, the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/audi/a6-sportback-e-tron/">Audi A6 Sportback e-tron</a> and <a href="https://www.kbb.com/bmw/i5/2025/">BMW i5</a> begin lower. The <a href="https://www.kbb.com/lucid/air/">Lucid Air</a>, <a href="https://www.kbb.com/mercedes-benz/mercedes-eq-eqe/">Mercedes-Benz EQE sedan</a>, and <a href="https://www.kbb.com/tesla/model-s/">Tesla Model S</a> have prices similar to this Genesis.
Before buying a new Electrified G80 luxury sedan, check the Kelley Blue Book Fair Purchase Price to know what you should be paying. We expect the Electrified G80’s resale values to be at least average. Recouping more money when selling a vehicle can mean a bigger down payment and lower monthly payments on the next one.

Nestled in the lower regions of the Genesis Electrified G80 is an 87.2-kilowatt-hour (kWh) battery. That’s an average capacity, similar to the BMW i5 and Mercedes-Benz EQE sedan. Recharging from 10% to 100% on a 240-volt supply (like a home charger) takes just under 7.5 hours.
<h3>5-Year/60,000-Mile Warranty</h3>
Genesis has some of the best warranties in the business. New-vehicle coverage lasts five years or 60,000 miles, whichever happens first, while powertrains and electric vehicle (EV) batteries are protected for 10 years or 100,000 miles. Free scheduled maintenance for three years or 36,000 miles is also included.
<h3>Safety Ratings</h3>
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (<a href="https://www.iihs.org/ratings/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IIHS</a>) has awarded the Electrified G80 its highest accolade of Top Safety Pick+. Although this electric version of the G80 hasn’t been crash-tested by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (<a href="https://www.nhtsa.gov/ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NHTSA</a>), its almost identical combustion counterpart took a maximum 5-Star overall score.

This model year brings no significant changes. We’re expecting a longer-wheelbase version for 2026.
