The current Audi RS 5 is 185.8″ long, 73.2″ wide, on a 109.1″ wheelbase, weighing 3,990 lb. Since 2014 it has grown 2% in length and gained -6% in weight. At 15.5 feet it fits a standard garage and fits a street parking space.
Every Audi RS 5 generation, measured
One row per generation. Watch the weight column — that is where most of the change happens, and it is the number that decides fuel use, tyre wear and how far the car takes to stop.
| Generation | Length | Width | Height | Wheelbase | Curb weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2014–2015 | 182.7″ | 72.8″ | 53.9″ | 108.3″ | 4,255 lb |
| 2018–2025 | 185.8″ | 73.2″ | 53.5″ | 109.1″ | 3,990 lb |
From 2014 to today the RS 5 gained 3.1″ of length (2%) and -265 lb of weight (-6%). A modern compact often outweighs the mid-size car of a generation before.
RS 5 year by year
Measured every model year, not just at generation changes — 10 years on record. Small moves inside a generation are facelifts; the jumps are new platforms.
| Model year | Length | Width | Wheelbase | Curb weight | Body styles |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 187″ | 72.8″ | 110.2″ | 2 | |
| 2024 | 187″ | 72.8″ | 110.2″ | 2 | |
| 2023 | 187″ | 72.8″ | 110.2″ | 2 | |
| 2022 | 187″ | 72.8″ | 110.2″ | 2 | |
| 2021 | 187″ | 72.8″ | 110.2″ | 2 | |
| 2020 | 186.6″ | 72.8″ | 110.2″ | 2 | |
| 2019 | 186.6″ | 72.8″ | 110.2″ | 2 | |
| 2018 | 185.8″ | 73.2″ | 109.1″ | 1 | |
| 2015 | 182.7″ | 72.8″ | 108.3″ | 2 | |
| 2014 | 182.7″ | 72.8″ | 108.3″ | 2 |
Will a RS 5 fit
The practical question behind every dimensions search. A single-car garage in the US is typically 20 feet deep; a street parking space is about 18. We allow a foot of clearance in both — nobody parks to the millimetre.
| Space | Typical size | This car | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single garage | 20 ft deep | 15.5 ft | Fits, with room to open the door |
| Street parking space | 18 ft | 15.5 ft | Fits comfortably |
| Standard parking bay width | 8.5 ft wide | 6.1 ft | Room to open doors both sides |
Against cars of the same length
Compared with 1,041 vehicles within ten inches of the same length — a fair proxy for «cars of this size», regardless of what the marketing calls them.
| Measure | This car | Typical car of this length | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Width | 73.2″ | 72.4″ | +0.8″ |
| Wheelbase | 109.1″ | 108.3″ | +0.8″ |
| Curb weight | 3,990 lb | 3,662 lb | 328 lb |
A longer wheelbase for the same overall length means shorter overhangs — usually more cabin space and a steadier ride. Lighter than typical for its size generally means better fuel economy and shorter stopping distances.

How we measure
Dimensions come from NHTSA vPIC and Transport Canada vehicle records — manufacturer-declared figures, held in metric and converted to inches and pounds for display.
One row per generation, not per model year: manufacturers rarely change the body between facelifts, and a table of forty near-identical rows helps nobody. Where a generation offered several body styles, the figures are the base measurements for that generation.
