Used 2025 Audi SQ5 for Sale nearOakville, ON

How much does the 2025 Audi SQ5 cost?

Prices have softened 9.56% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 62 listings available, which suggests you have a reasonable amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2025 Audi SQ5 a good car?

The 2025 Audi SQ5 earns a 7.2/10 expert rating.

The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel, Form and function, and Technology.

It stands out as a compact luxury crossover SUV that aims to deliver sport sedan performance in an SUV body, while still keeping everyday comfort and practicality in the mix. The available verdict also highlights that it avoids the usual dynamic compromise of a sport-tuned SUV and feels more enjoyable than the Audi S5 Sportback that shares its architecture.

The main trade-offs are poor fuel economy and the lack of hands-free driving tech. Even so, it should appeal to you if you want a premium compact SUV with a more engaging character than most rivals without giving up refinement and practicality.

Only 21.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so the market is somewhat selective rather than especially bargain-heavy.

Is the 2025 Audi SQ5 reliable?

The 2025 Audi SQ5 is positioned as a refined, well-equipped performance SUV, and its standard all-wheel drive, adaptive air suspension, and premium mechanical hardware support that impression. The expert evaluation also describes it as sure-footed in wet conditions and enjoyable in everyday driving, which points to a strong overall ownership experience from a drivability standpoint.

Its dependability story is less reassuring on the technology side. The expert notes that the driver-assistance systems did not meet expectations, with unwarranted braking events and unreliable steering-wheel detection undermining confidence in the system.

Audi includes a four-year trial for connected services, which helps with day-to-day convenience, but the SQ5’s long-term ownership risk for used buyers is tied more to its complex electronics and driver-assistance behaviour than to its core performance hardware.

What should I look for when buying a used 2025 Audi SQ5?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The SQ5 and SQ5 Sportback are offered in Progressiv and Technik trim levels. The Technik brings more luxury and tech, including the passenger-side screen and configurable lighting features, while the base trim still gets a strong equipment list.
• Powertrain: You get a turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 with 362 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque, paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and quattro all-wheel drive. The SQ5 is tuned for strong acceleration and confident road manners, but fuel economy is a weak point.
• Safety package: Standard equipment includes automatic high-beam headlights, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and front and rear parking sensors. Additional functions include Rear Turn Assist and Emergency Assist, but there is no low-speed hands-free traffic jam assist or hands-free driving tech.
• Infotainment: The Progressiv trim includes an 11.9-inch digital instrument display and a 14.5-inch OLED infotainment touchscreen. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, navigation, SiriusXM satellite radio, Audi Assistant, and a 16-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system are standard, while the Technik adds a 10.9-inch passenger display.
• Fuel efficiency: The official Natural Resources Canada fuel economy rating is 11.4 litres per 100 kilometres combined, and testing returned 11.5 L/100 km.

Which 2025 Audi SQ5 trim should I buy?

The 2025 Audi SQ5 is offered in 4 trim levels: Progressiv, Technik, Progressiv Sportback, Technik Sportback.

Here's the short version:

• Progressiv: This is the best-value choice if you want the SQ5 experience without stretching to the top trim. You still get the strong V6 powertrain, the digital cockpit, the OLED infotainment screen, wireless smartphone integration, and the core safety and convenience features that make the SQ5 feel properly premium.
• Technik: Choose this if you want the fullest expression of the SQ5’s tech and luxury features. The passenger-side screen, configurable lighting, and richer cabin presentation make it the more indulgent pick, especially if you value the extra wow factor and are willing to pay for it.
• Progressiv Sportback: Pick this if you want the same equipment and driving character as the standard body style but prefer the Sportback’s styling. The content suggests the roofline does not meaningfully compromise passenger or cargo space, so this is mainly a design-led choice.
• Technik Sportback: This is the most style-and-features-forward version, combining the Sportback body with the top trim’s extra luxury and tech. It suits you if you want the most distinctive-looking SQ5 with the richest cabin presentation.

The safety package is standard across the range, but the lack of hands-free driving tech remains a notable omission no matter which trim you choose.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2025 Audi SQ5?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you have room to shop carefully without expecting deep discounts everywhere.

• Deal availability: 21.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 62 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 9.56% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $69,757 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2025 Audi SQ5's resale value?

The current average of $69,918 CAD sits slightly below last year's $77,310 CAD.

That decline suggests the SQ5 has become more attractive to used buyers than it was a year ago. If you’re planning to sell later, you should expect a softer resale environment than last year’s market.

For a future seller, the current trend means pricing discipline matters. A well-kept SQ5 with desirable equipment should still draw interest, but you may need to position it competitively to stand out. If the market continues to soften, holding out for a premium could take longer than it did a year ago.

Is the 2025 Audi SQ5 safe?

The 2025 Audi SQ5 does not yet have published IIHS or NHTSA ratings of its own, but the related 2025 Audi Q5 earned a five-star overall safety rating from NHTSA, while IIHS testing on that model produced top Good ratings only in the small overlap front test and lower results elsewhere.

It earns a 4/10 safety score from our experts.

Standard safety features include automatic high-beam headlights, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and front and rear parking sensors. Audi also includes Rear Turn Assist and Emergency Assist in the MMI safety settings menu, along with hands-on detection capability in the steering wheel.

The main caveat is the driver-assistance behaviour. The SQ5 does not offer low-speed hands-free traffic jam assist or hands-free driving tech, and the expert evaluation flags unwarranted emergency braking and unreliable steering-wheel detection as serious concerns.

Should I buy a 2025 Audi SQ5 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2025 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2025 if:

• 21.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 9.56% compared with last year.
• It is the redesigned version with more power, added practicality, and next-generation technology.

The bottom line: If you want the newest SQ5 with the strongest mix of performance, comfort, and technology, the 2025 is the one to target. If your priority is stretching your budget, a different year may be worth considering, but the 2025’s redesign and softened pricing make it the more compelling choice for most shoppers.
