Audi SQ5 Sportback Prestige 4dr SUV Exterior Shown

Like every Audi, the 2023 SQ5 Sportback will make you feel and look modern and chic with its accoutrements and advanced technology. The interior feels spacious for a coupe-style SUV, but rear headroom and cargo capacity are compromised. The ride may be on the firmer side due to its sporty nature, but it manages to throw in a bit of comfort to balance things out and the relaxing seats feel great to sit in.

2021 Audi SQ5 Sportback Prestige 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 8A)

I was torn between the Macan S and SQ5. I love my SQ5 sportback Prestige it has so many options and the up shifts are throaty and get noticed by others while passing. The biggest advantage is that it doesn’t look like every other grocery getter SUV.

2023 Audi SQ5 Sportback Premium Plus 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 8A)
