From your recent searches, it looks like you are looking for a bike rack solution. The only options we have for your vehicle are hitch-mounted bike racks. If you need a hitch for your 2014 Audi A5 Cabriolet (convertible) model, I confirmed with Curt that the # C11188 is a perfect fit for your vehicle. To complete the installation on the hitch, you also need a T25 and T55 Torx bits. The great thing about the # C11188 is that it comes with a superior gloss outer coating over the base powder coat to provide you with an extra layer or protection from rust/corrosion.

For the bike rack itself, a great option is the Saris Freedom Bike Rack for 2 Fat Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" # SA4412B or the fat-bike version # SA4412B-FB. The Freedom comes with a 35-pound per-bike weight capacity when used with Class 1 hitches like the Curt # C11188. It also comes with a super long shank, so you won't have any bumper interference when using the rack. If you end up going with the Freedom, you can add theft-deterrence with the # SA3022 and the # e98891.

If you need more weight capacity for your bikes, the absolute best option is the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202. This rack accommodates bikes up to 65 pounds per bike. It also works well with wheelbases up to 51-3/16" long. If you happen to have fat tires between 3 and 4-11/16 inches wide, you need the fat bike straps # TH985101.
