The Audi Q5 is a new kind of SUV: it combines the dynamism of a sports sedan with an impressively versatile interior and a wide range of practical features for leisure and family use.
Powerful, efficient engines, quattro permanent all-wheel drive and an agile suspension layout form an impressive technological package for on-road and off-road use.
Highlights such as the innovative S tronic seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and the driving dynamics system Audi drive select are the evidence that substantiates the Q5's claim to Vorsprung durch Technik.
The sportiest SUV in its class, it is dynamic, multifunctional and comfortable.
