Q5 vs The competition

Audi Q5 vs The Competition

When it comes to compact luxury SUVs, the vast number of choices available for Fairfield drivers is overwhelming. At Audi Fairfield, the Audi Q5 stands above the crowd with a long list of luxury features, high-tech appeal, and efficient powertrains for real life. Our team of experts compares the Audi Q5 against top rivals to show you why it is the best choice for your luxury lifestyle.

Performance & Capabilities

The Audi Q5 offers standard quattro® all-wheel drive and three engine options: a turbocharged 201-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder, a turbocharged 261-horsepower 2.0-liter, and a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle variant that makes 362 horsepower. Rivals like the Volvo XC60 and BMW X5 offer a range of gas and hybrid powertrains, but the Audi Q5 offers a more comfortable driving style, more fuel-efficient options, and includes all-wheel drive in every model. The Mercedes-Benz GLC Class offers a single powertrain: a hybrid turbocharged four-cylinder, but it only makes 255 horsepower, and all-wheel drive is not standard.

Luxuries & Cargo Space

The Audi Q5 offers a spacious interior with a flexible seating configuration to maximize the available space. Unlike rivals like the Lexus RX, the rear seats in the Q5 can fold in a 40/20/40 split, allowing owners to fit more cargo when necessary. The total cargo space beats the smaller dimensions of the Porsche Macan. Additionally, the Audi Q5 includes many luxuries like genuine leather upholstery, heated front seats & steering wheel, a power liftgate, and high-tech driver assistance aids starting on the entry-level model. Competitors like the Mercedes-Benz GLC class will have you pay more for standard luxuries like the heated steering wheel and leather upholstery.

Technology Features

The 2024 Audi Q5 is well equipped with generous standard features that include necessary staples for modern life. Access wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto&trade through a dashboard-mounted 10.1-inch touchscreen. Upgrading to the Premium Plus or Prestige models will also come with Virtual Cockpit and a 12.3-inch configurable digital instrument cluster. Top rivals like the Volvo XC60 offer similar features but only offer a 9-inch touchscreen. The Porsche Macan requires additional expensive upgrades to unlock the full range of technology features, and Android Auto is not available on any model.
