Audi Q5 (2025-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Sharp styling	Expensive to buy
Practical interior with lots of space	Complex infotainment system
Polished driving experience	Average warranty coverage

Quick Summary

The Audi Q5 (2025-present) is a premium family SUV that delivers sharp styling, impressive practicality, and a polished driving experience. Available in standard five-seater and coupe-like Sportback bodystyles, it offers a longer wheelbase than before for enhanced interior space. Power comes from a 2.0-litre TFSI petrol or TDI diesel engine, both producing 201bhp with mild hybrid technology, alongside a plug-in hybrid e-hybrid variant with around 60 miles of electric range. The high-performance SQ5 offers 362bhp for those seeking more excitement.

The Q5 excels in practicality with a 520-litre boot (515 for Sportback), reclining rear backrests, and sliding rear seats on higher trims to trade legroom for boot space. Interior storage is plentiful, and the driving position is exceptionally comfortable. Fuel economy is respectable at 37-40mpg for petrol and 44-47mpg for diesel. Whilst expensive to purchase and featuring a complex infotainment system, the Q5 remains a desirable, well-rounded package that justifies its premium positioning through quality, refinement, and comprehensive equipment levels across the range.

Best for: Buyers seeking a premium family SUV with excellent practicality, sharp styling, and a refined driving experience, particularly those valuing brand prestige and comprehensive standard equipment.

Not ideal for: Budget-conscious buyers, those prioritising simplicity in technology interfaces, or drivers seeking the most competitive pricing compared to Chinese-built rivals.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Q5 if: You're seeking a premium family SUV with excellent practicality, sharp styling, and a refined driving experience, particularly valuing brand prestige and comprehensive standard equipment.

Consider alternatives if: You're budget-conscious, prioritise simplicity in technology interfaces, or seek the most competitive pricing compared to Chinese-built rivals.

Competitive Position: The Audi Q5 (2025-present) holds its own against premium rivals, matching the BMW X3 in expert and overall ratings whilst offering superior practicality and space. The Volvo XC60 edges ahead with higher user ratings and overall CarGurus rating, appealing to those prioritising safety and comfort. The Chinese-built Omoda 9 offers better value and more equipment at a lower price, though it lacks the established brand prestige and refinement of the Q5. For buyers willing to invest in premium quality, the Q5 remains a compelling choice that justifies its higher cost through design, engineering, and comprehensive features.
