What is the 2021 Audi Q5's resale value?

The current average of $27,234 CAD sits slightly below last year's $31,567 CAD.

That softer pricing means future sellers may face a more competitive market than owners did a year ago. If you plan to resell later, the current trend suggests you should expect buyers to be price-sensitive and to compare your listing closely against similar Q5s.

The Q5’s premium positioning and strong owner satisfaction can still help support demand, especially if your vehicle is well maintained and equipped with desirable features.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.8/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Should I buy a 2021 Audi Q5 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2021 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2021 if:

• 32.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.73% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.8/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• Audi’s electrification push is a key part of this year’s appeal, and the plug-in hybrid continues the Q5 TFSI e quattro approach.

The bottom line: If you want the Q5 with its electrified twist and you find a well-priced example, the 2021 is a sensible buy. If you’re mainly shopping on price, a nearby model year may offer a different balance of value and equipment, but the 2021 remains the one to target if the plug-in hybrid setup is important to you.
