Audi hasn’t exactly been skywriting the future of the RS5 model, but a couple of years ago when plans for the RS5 were getting ironed out, the company had already confirmed a convertible variant for the sports coupe. Well, the debut for the vehicle came and went and no convertible version seemed to be in sight. Until now. Audi has applied trademarks for a RS5 Convertible and has also released patent drawings for the vehicle. The images reveal the same design language found on the recently launched facelift RS5 and will have the same electrically operated fabric top as the A5 and S5 convertibles. Under the hood, the convertible will get the same 4.2 liter V8 engine as the coupe version with an output of 450 HP and a peak torque of 317.15 lb-ft available between 4,000 and 6,000 rpm. The engine will be combined with Audi’s seven-speed S-tronic dual-clutch transmission and quattro all-wheel drive system. Since the patent drawings have already been released, expect a production model for the Audi RS5 Convertible to be launched fairly quickly. Watch out, BMW M3 Convertible, Audi’s coming after you!

UPDATE 10/11/2011: The upcoming Audi RS5 Cabrio has been caught testing at the Nurburgring test track. The model features a bigger front spoiler, bigger brakes, and wider fenders. Enjoy! .
