2009-2012 Audi Q5 review
You could call the new Audi Q5 an SUV. But if it doesn’t look like an ordinary SUV, that’s because it isn’t. Our designers chose not to follow convention, enabling them to produce something rather special: a beautifully streamlined vehicle that combines space and comfort with the driving dynamics of a coup?. It’s only by driving the Audi Q5 that you can truly appreciate why it’s like no other car in its class.Exclusive and functional: the interiorA high level of craftsmanship dominates the inside of the Audi Q5. There is above all plenty of space. The rear seat backs can be folded down from the luggage compartment using the remote release mechanism.Spacious luggage compartmentThe cargo area of the Audi Q5 holds a generous 540 litres of luggage. The low sill height of just 693 mm makes loading the vehicle extremely easy. A loading width of 1,050 mm is also a practical feature.Innovative suspensionThe Audi Q5’s suspension, with its five-link front axle and trapezoidal-link rear axle, delivers an agile drive. Both enable a rapid build-up of forces, thus ensuring outstanding straight running, good ride comfort and excellent directional stability.Intelligent ESPThe latest generation of Electronic Stability Programme offers intelligent technical assistance: with roof rack detection a new sensor system detects whether the standard roof cross-members are attached. The system then adapts to take account of the higher centre of gravity caused by the load.Individual vehicle characteristicsThe optional Audi Drive Select system changes the vehicle characteristics from comfortable to dynamic and back again at the press of a button via three basic modes. In conjunction with the damper control and/or dynamic steering available as optional extras, Audi Drive Select lets you drive just the way you want.Model Range:
2.0 TFSI quattro 155 kW S tronic
3.2 FSI quattro 199 kW S tronic
2.0 TDI quattro 125 kW S tronic
3.0 TDI quattro 176 kW S tronic
