I love the body style. Interior is somewhat lacking compared to the Mercedes GLC but still nice. Ride and handling is what you would expect from German engineering, flawless. I would definitely recommend this SUV.

Beautiful paperweight for the first four weeks I owned it. Timing shaft tensioner failed, then second time in it was the camshaft that failed. Audi refused buyback saying basically "too bad."

This car is very comfortable and a pleasure to drive. Plenty of front seat legroom. This car has the Technology Package as well. Information/Entertainment center takes some study to learn. Can be difficult when driving. This is a fun SUV to drive after driving a MB CLK350 for the past 5 years.

This is my second Q5, I love the car so much I had to get another one, and we'll probably get a third after this one the car is so much fun the drive, is beautiful the interior is so well appointed and has everything you need to have a wonderful ride. The details are so nicely done the car is made so beautifully, everything fits so nicely together you can tell it's a German high-end car

I leased the Q5 and it drove fine until it started to hesitate when I tried to accelerate quickly . When I brought it back for service the service manager said that it was the way the care is, and I couldn’t believe that....other than that the car works fine and it’s very reliable but the hesitation is a big problem that is very bothersome and need I say very dangerous ! I wouldn’t lease another Q5 just because of the hesitation problem which hasn’t been corrected !
