Great motor, outdated distracting controls
If you've had a car with modern features like usable touch-screen, lane-keep, adaptive cruise, voice control that understands English... you'll hate a lot about this car like I do. If you don't mind obsolete technology like thumb-wheels and scroll-wheels that incite rage and distracting button locations, it's otherwise a pretty nice ride. The tdi is a great motor that provides quiet sports-car-like acceleration while still getting really good fuel economy. Where I live in the Lake Tahoe region, the torque is really appreciated. The tdi's power climbs the long steep grades like no other vehicle I've driven (including my PowerStroke). For me, the size is a plus - more sports sedan than mommy-wagon, yet comfortable for adults in the back seat and enough cargo space for most of my needs, although I'm glad to have the F250 as backup.
King of the Road
Vault like build quality, feels like driving an elegant and maneuverable mini-tank on the road! UPDATE: I have had the absolute pleasure of driving the terrific 3.0T equipped, 2016 Audi Q5. I chose the S-Line model, with some of the cleanest body lines that compliment the Black Optics over Ibis white color scheme. Equipped with the Tech package and 19" wheels, the Q5 is pure unadulterated fun! The tan leather interior is very functional and very comfortable, easy to maintain and comes with a panaromic roof. The Bang and Olefsen stereo is superb sounding, beats a Bose setup any day. With a thoughtfully laid out display the MMI setup could be more responsive, but it is not too bad. Get ready for an adrenaline rush and sheer excitement, whenever the supercharged 3.0T V6 engine to comes to life. Mind bending throttle response leads to pin you in your seat acceleration and torque, and miles of smiles as you allow this performance SUV to stretch it's legs. Audi has indeed crafted a balanced, visually and viscerally pleasing SUV at a very reasonable price, this is a true gem folks!. I highly recommend the supercharged 3.0T drivetrain over the 2.0T engine, as you get a better suspension, larger disc brakes, dual outlet exhaust and a horsepower/torque range that will put any comparable SUV in its price class to shame. The only downsides are the subpar fuel economy in city driving and the lack of Apple car play tech. This is the absolute best vehicle I have ever owned in my 30+ years of multiple luxury brand ownership!
