By far the bestselling vehicle in Audi's lineup in Canada, the Q5 soldiers on with a 252-horsepower, turbo four-cylinder engine or, in the case of the sporty SQ5, a 354-horsepower V6 turbo. The quattro all-wheel drive system is fitted as standard, and an air suspension can be added as an option. We’re also treated to the Audi virtual cockpit digital driver display as well as a choice of leather upholsteries and interior trims.
Pros
- Top-notch performance and handling
- Cabin is comfortable, luxurious and practical
- Impressive virtual cockpit (Technik versions)
- Impeccable quality and interior finish
Cons
- Shape not bold enough
- Dated wood trim (Q5)
- Disappointing black plastic wheel-mounted shifters (SQ5)
- Rear air bags are optional
