Does Emergency kit come standard with 2019 a5 Sportback?

Do you mind sharing a picture of what’s included in the kit?

if emergency kit meaning the reflective triangle, Audi did away with that years ago, there is a jack and tire changing kit.

Audi sells an emergency/roadside kit, which comes with all sorts of goodies.

The only thing Audi includes in US spec cars is a tire mobility kit to temporarily fix a punctured tire. No First Aid Kit or warning triangle is included. They don't even include the holder in the trunk for the warning triangle, so there is nowhere to put it if you buy one yourself. First Aid Kit and warning triangle was included with my '13 RS5, because I did European Delivery. These things are mandated by law in Europe, so Audi has to include them, but for North America it's another place where they can save a bit of money.

The emergency triangle ommission in the US is just plain cheap I think. However you can get them just about anywhere in Europe for about 5 euro. It’s a standard size rectangular tube. It fits perfectly in the rear left side. If you’re not going abroad they are all over eBay too.
