2025 Audi Q5 Trims Comparison

Which 2025 Q5 trim does Edmunds recommend?

For the older Q5, we recommend the Q5 45 TFSI Premium Plus for the best combination of equipment, performance and value. This version offers quicker acceleration courtesy of the uprated engine, while the Premium Plus model adds desirable features and opens the door to a wider range of options. The Premium Plus is also a good choice for the third-generation Q5.

2025 Q5 trim level differences

The 2025 Audi Q5 is a small luxury SUV. Audi is selling both the second-generation Q5 and a new third-generation Q5, both of which have a 2025 model year designation. Each one comes in Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige trim levels. You'll need to do some investigation to confirm which generation you are considering a purchase of.

Three powertrains are available for the second-generation Q5, each with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. They include the Q5 40 TFSI (201 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque), the Q5 45 TFSI (261 hp and 273 lb-ft), and the Q5 55 TFSI e plug-in hybrid (362 hp and 369 lb-ft). The Q5 plug-in hybrid provides 23 miles of electric range and the quickest acceleration while matching the maximum fuel economy rating for other Q5s.

The third-generation Q5 also has a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, a dual-clutch automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. It's slightly more powerful, however. It makes 268 hp and and 295 lb-ft.

We'll list the most important features that you get with each trim level and point out any differences that exist between the old Q5 (second generation) and new Q5 (third generation).
