Pros Fun to drive, fun to look at, practical enough. Excellent range and charging. A Very Good electric car
Cons It’s a bit big - you have to think full-size SUV when parking - could be a bit odd-looking for some, not exactly cheap
Pros Stylish design inside and out Good to drive Fast charging and clever vehicle-to-load tech
Cons Firmer ride than some alternatives Rear visibility isn't great The boot could be larger
Pros More stylish than most mainstream EVs, athletic and refined driving behavior, comfy and roomy inside.
Cons Infotainment system has some drawbacks, lacks game-changing driving range, small front trunk space.
As you might expect from looking at them side by side in a parking lot, the Audi Q5 and the Audi SQ5 are two versions of the same small luxury crossover SUV. The SQ5 offers more power and some extra performance along with a few added luxury touches to help it feel a bit more premium.
Pros Impressively comfortable ride for a sport-tuned SUV Generous space for passengers Luxurious but restrained interior design Nimble handling
Cons Lack of touchscreen functionality limits smartphone integration usefulness
Thankfully, the Audi SQ5 is a lot more comfortable than most of them. Its standard adaptive suspension will let you choose between sporty or more comfortable settings, but the optional adaptive air suspension irons out bumps better than any other sporty SUV. It’ll also lower the car’s ride height at speed to make it more stable and you can raise it by 45mm if you fancy a spot of light off-roading.
Pros Very fast Great build quality Spacious interior
Cons Expensive options Diesel engine only Pricey compared to alternatives
The SQ5 displays great balance between driving dynamics and comfort, proving its worth in a competitive class.
Pros Numerous standard interior features, well-balanced ride, surprisingly fuel efficient.
Cons Passenger volume and cargo space is lacking, bland exterior design, falls short to its rivals in terms of performance.
