What's New: 2018 Audi Q5

Under the Hood

At least at first, the U.S. version of the Q5 will employ a turbocharged gasoline 2.0-liter four-cylinder that’s good for 252 hp, according to Audi. It will pair with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
Performance options for the global Q5 range from an adaptive air suspension to variable-ratio steering and an active rear differential that shifts power between the left and right rear wheels to optimize handling.

Safety

Audi says the Q5 will have a standard forward collision warning system with automatic emergency braking. Available safety features include systems to mitigate collisions when you turn into oncoming traffic or open a door when a vehicle or cyclist is approaching. On the self-driving front, the Q5’s available adaptive cruise control can steer the SUV in low-speed traffic.
