Ladies and gentlemen, this is the all-new 2018 Audi Q5. Like the recently unveiled Audi A5, the exterior design of the new Q5 is more of an evolution than a revolution, as the majority of it looks similar to its predecessor. Many consumers might initially confuse the new-gen Q5 as a mere facelift since the new car’s side profile and rear end look almost identical to the current Q5.
However, with the Q7-inspired grille, LED headlights, and the bulging front fenders which flow smoothly into the hood, the 2018 Audi Q5 has a refreshed look.
What’s New
Since the new Q5 shares its underpinnings with the new A4 and A5, Audi estimates the crossover now weighs almost 198 pounds less than its predecessor. Compared to the current model, the 2018 Audi Q5’s wheelbase increases by a half-inch, and the overall length stretches by 1.3 inches. Rear seat legroom grows by 0.4 inches as a result of the extended wheelbase. Audi also claims that cargo space behind the second row seats has increased as well. Performance
Audi will offer the new Q5 with multiple powertrains in global markets, but the U.S. Spec Q5 will be available with only a 2.0 L turbocharged four-cylinder engine initially. It creates 252 horsepower and 272 lb-ft. of torque. The engine is paired to a new seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission that directs power via Audi’s latest Quattro Ultra all-wheel-drive system.
