Why it stands out

The 2016 Audi Q5 stands out as a compact luxury SUV that blends a polished driving experience with a genuinely upscale feel. It has a roomy, beautifully built interior and a real sense of solidity and smoothness, which helps explain why it appeals to buyers who want comfort and quality more than flash. It also comes across as well equipped even in entry-level form, with standard 18-inch alloy wheels, power heated front seats and outboard mirrors, leather upholstery, a 6.5-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a 10-speaker audio system, and Sirius satellite radio.

Mechanically, the 2016 model sits in the first generation of the Q5 and is part of a range that had already expanded beyond its original V6-only start. By this point, the Q5 TDI had been dropped in 2016, while the broader lineup included the 2.0T, the 3.0-litre supercharged V6, and the SQ5. The first-generation Q5 also offered quattro all-wheel drive as standard, and under normal conditions it sends 60% of power to the rear wheels and 40% to the front. That said, the model is not without drawbacks: Audi’s reliability record is only average, and first-generation Q5 owners have reported issues such as excessive oil consumption, failing timing chains, rattling or leaking panoramic sunroofs, and noisy suspension caused by failing control arms.
