Which 2022 Q5 Sportback trim does Edmunds recommend?

The Premium base trim offers a lot for the money, but it's worth stepping up to the Premium Plus. It adds the base trim's optional Convenience package features — narrowing the price gap between the two trims — and includes useful functions like adaptive cruise control, a smartphone charging pad, a surround-view camera and Audi's attractive Virtual Cockpit Plus digital gauge cluster. The Premium Plus also opens the door to more options, such as navigation and ventilated front seats.
