![]() |
Premium German automobiles manufacturer Audi has revealed the updated version of its world famous Quattro all-wheel-drive system in its all new Audi Q5. It was officially revealed in the Beijing Motor Show last week.
Audi made the announcement of building the Q5 nearly a year back. The crossover is perhaps Audi’s answer to the X3 versions from BMW.
The key features of Audi Q5 include a roomy interior and the longest wheelbase. The five-seated car is 4.63 meters long, 1.88 meters wide and 1.65 meters high. The 19-inch wheels enhance the entire sporty look.
Audi Q5 shares a platform with the A4 and A5. High efficiency diesel models and FSI- equipped four and six-cylinder engines are expected to be offered by the company.
The engine specifications are: 2.0 TFSI (211 hp / 258 lb-ft), a 2.0 TDI (170 hp / 258 lb-ft), and a 3.0 TDI (240 hp / 369 lb-ft).
Audi Q5 is an updated version of the quattro all-wheel-drive system with a six-speed manual or the new seven-speed DSG gearbox.
“Luxury” features of the car:
• The Audi parking system advanced with rearview camera
• Audi lane assist (the lane departure warning system) and Audi side assist, which warns of hazards when changing lanes.
• Adaptive cruise control maintains a constant distance between the performance SUV and the vehicle in front.
The “add-ons” of the car are:
• Advanced key for keyless access to the vehicle,
• A tire pressure monitoring system,
• large panoramic glass sunroof with additional tilting function,
• Triple-zone climate control system,
• Sun blinds for the rear side windows,
• Dynamic cornering light system known as Audi adaptive light, an electric tailgate and a swiveling trailer hitch.
• High-beam assistant automatically switches between the high and low beams.
• On request, the front seats can be electrically adjusted, heated and ventilated.
The entry level models of Audi Q5 are expected to start from less than £30,000.
