Audi sells a wide range of sedans and SUVs with luxurious interiors and lots of technology. Several of its SUVs and sedans have earned CR’s recommendation for balancing driver and passenger comfort with smooth power and nimble handling. In most cases, buyers shopping for sedans and SUVs in the luxury category should consider Audi’s options. Fit and finish quality reaches even the lowest-priced models. However, like most luxury cars from European brands, maintenance and repair costs can be expensive, making used Audis difficult to recommend. Typically, Audi identifies sedans with the letter A, SUVs with the letter Q, and numbers that increase according to size. The Q3 is a compact crossover while the Q8 is a three-row SUV. Models that start with S or RS are tuned for performance and have more power, stiffer suspension, and more aerodynamic exterior details. All-electric models have the E-tron suffix.
Audi has redesigned its Q5 luxury compact SUV for the 2025 model year, with evolutionary styling outside and a radical update inside. Two powertrains will be offered: a standard 268-hp, 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder in most versions or 362-hp, 3.0-liter turbo V6 in the SQ5 performance trim. Both are mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic and come standard with all-wheel drive. The interior is dominated by large screens: an 11.9-inch one in front of the driver curves and blends into the 14.5-inch center touchscreen. An optional 10.9-inch display is available for the front passenger. While all key safety systems come standard, the optional adaptive driving assistant plus uses the different ADAS systems along with high-resolution map data and data from other vehicles to guide the Q5. The redesigned SUV goes on sale in mid to late 2025. The outgoing model is also on sale as a 2025 model.
