Coming out the 2020 version of the same model and similar options, the MSRP is more. A consequence of global inflation and higher interest rates. I do like the updated body style and touchscreen infotainment system. However, the options available like Navigation are few and far between unless you upgrade to a Prestige model or happen to find a Premium Plus with that option (at greater overall cost than before). Not really needed in the era of Apple Car-Play etc, but I do miss the feature, especially the map display in the instrument cluster. The Q5e drives about the same, maybe a bit more buttoned down and maybe slightly quicker with the higher kW battery. I really like the features and look of this model and will be happy for the next few years until my lease is up.

Very poor quality and even worse service

My New 2023 plug in hybrid Q5 never worked properly. It had one problem after another the whole first year. Even worse the dealership treated me like I was making it up. I missed family events because I couldn’t drive my very expensive unreliable car the distance needed to get there. Audi and VW shouted ashamed of the way they treated me.

Have had mine since mid December 2022 and love it. Beautiful roomy interior, tons of power, super quiet and getting 60 km range in all electric.

The Audi Q5 plug in hybrid was a nice vehicle. It was comfortable to drive and had a looked good. After driving the Q5 for a while, I realized I wasn't happy with only getting 25 miles per charge and really wanted a fully electric vehicle, so I traded for a Q6 etron. Also, I wasn't crazy about the color I selected.
