Updated S5 to feature supercharged V6

Audi's decision to downsize the engine in the recently revealed S4 range from a naturally-aspirated V8 in the previous model to a forced-induction V6 is set to be repeated for a number of important performance models from the Germany luxury carmaker. According to latest reports the facelifted S5 sports coupe, due next year, will drop its current 349hp (260kW) 4.2L V8 mill in favor of a 329hp (245kW) supercharged 3.0L V6.
