Our Fleet Test Drive: Audi A5 Sportback – 7th Report

The quality and aesthetics of Audi interiors are excellent, but there are a few functions that could be easier to use.

One minor irritant is how the blower works. Instead of a traditional knob you simply turn clockwise or anti-clockwise, Audi’s system requires the press of the button with the fan symbol on it, then a look at the centre screen to see a virtual dial and then a turn of another actual knob back near the original button to adjust the airflow. And if you don’t do it quickly the virtual dial pops away as quickly as it appears. This is not progress.
