Happiness at its best
Every time I drive my Q5, I feel happy. I traded in a 2020 Toyota Camry XSE AWD and don’t regret it at all. The Audi has very comfortable seats with extenders, handles well around curves, has a smooth and quiet highway drive (which I do a lot of), has quick acceleration, and obtains great gas mileage. It usually gets 28-29 miles to a gallon. I love the gray interior and blue exterior colors. This is my first Audi but have owned and currently own a couple of VWs. Audi is definitely worth spending the extra money and step up from VW but still love my 2012 VW Eos(nothing handles like it) and 2021 VW Tiguan.

Practical and It Can Be Sporty
This car is very comfortable to drive and can haul a decent amount of cargo. The interior design is good. Space in the back seats is quite limited; be sure to sit back there before you buy. Performance and handling are decent in "Auto" mode, and become quite exhilarating in "Dynamic" and "Sport" mode. Overall, a very satisfactory vehicle.

Wonky electronics (and two recalls) = bad choice
I'm six months into the Q5 and - unfortunately - wish I hadn't gotten this car. First, the electronics in this car are awful - Audi REALLY wants you to use MMI, even though CarPlay is better. So if there are multiple phones in the car, it's not easy to choose the right one. If you connect one through Bluetooth and plug it in to charge, it will completely disconenct from the phone. It's maddening. There's no good place to set down a large phone in the car. The slot they have looks like it will fit an iPhone 4. So get used to giving up a drink holder and/or having the phone fly all over the car (it's happened several times.) The regenerative braking on this car is awful - it's not even close to one-pedal driving. It seems like they didn't want to give up the service revenue from brake jobs. The electrical plug on this car (one of the recalls, as it can catch your house on fire) is always confusing to disengage. The pickup -for an "S" Audi with an electric engine - is surprisingly awful. The electric range is 30 miles or so (which is about 80% of our usage.) Limited, but passable. All in all, this car shows all of its compromises...and not in a good way. I really wish we had picked another vehicle - one that seems committed to electric power rather than the slapdash approach of Audi.
