Very well built and engineered

I like everything about this car except for the control center - not like any American car I’ve owned and it takes some getting used to. No touch screen. But otherwise, a great car. Very good performance for a 4 cylinder!

very reliable but have had 3 recalls in 1.5 years

Too many recalls; have had THREE recalls in one and one-half years. Also AUDI service is just too busy, so have to wait more than one month to be serviced. Otherwise great car

My 2010 Q5 was great..2018 is even better

Loved my 2010 Q5...even happier with my 2018 Q5. WHY ISN,T TIRE ROTATION INCLUDED WITH AUDI CARE???? Nobody seems to know!!! I really believe tire rotation is important and possible safety item.

Luxury and reliability in one

I’ve reviewed this vehicle and the Audi exceeded all my expectations. It’s not often that I would write a review , but in this case it needs to be stated. I love it.

Astonishing technology and performance

Love it so far, and incredible for long distance drives. Full suite of driver assistance, and I can’t imagine going back. Super fuel economy although it drops dramatically when towing even a very small and light trailer

Extremely reliable and fun to drive

This car is great. I was able to special order the features I wanted on my car which made purchase exciting. I could not have found a better vehicle to own.

I got a great deal on 2018 Q5

I was in the market for an SUV. I compared the Audi Q5, Acura RDX, Lexus RX 350 and Infiniti QX 50. I liked the AWD in the Q5. The 2018 Lexus did not have Apple Car Play. Infiniti QX 50 had a new engine design and I did not want to purchase it in case the bugs had not been worked out. So it was between the Acura RDX AWD technology package and the Audi Q5 prestige package. It was close but I liked the features and the price of that Audi. With the same features the Acura RDX AWD technology package was more expensive. What I don't like are the location of the cup holders. It does not accommodate a Yeti Rambler. There is also no place for sunglasses. The space they have is not sufficient and keys or sunglasses will fall out on the floor during a turn. The bucket seats are a little tough to get into and out of because the leg supports are so high and firm. The technology works well and I really like the adaptive cruise control.

Great car fun to drive too

Safe and enjoy driving Quattro-especially in the snow. Will probably always own an Audi for the confidence I feel when driving in bad weather. Rodney Girouard is THE MAN at Inskip to deal with!!!

performance suv for meant to be driven

The Audi Q5 has Prestige has all the current technology. Bought due to top ranking over all brands. Driver assist, Wi-Fi, endless music options, sport car handling. You feel safe driving this model with all the built in protections.
