The Sport grades sits above the entry Design spec in the Q5 range and lists for $70,900 if you'd like it with a diesel engine, or $73,211 for the petrol.
That diesel is a 140kW/400Nm 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo matched with a seven-speed dual clutch automatic. Fuel economy is good with Audi's official combined figure being 5.5L/100km.
The petrol engine is a 185kW/370Nm 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo and it also has the seven-speed auto. The official fuel economy number is 7.3L/100km.
Standard features include an 8.3-inch multimedia screen with sat nav and a reversing camera, 12.3-inch ‘virtual cockpit' instrument display, DVD player and 10-speaker stereo, front and rear parking sensors, three-zone climate control, adaptive LED headlights, auto tailgate, leather seats, power front seats, aluminium roof rails, ambient interior lighting, digital radio and 20-inch alloy wheels.
The Sport grade comes standard with city AEB which can recognise pedestrians, detect a potential collision at up to 85km/h, and reduce speed by 40km/h in an emergency. There's also adaptive cruise control, rear cross traffic alert, blind spot warning and an alert which will sound if you're about to open your door on a cyclist or car. Another cool standard safety feature is a rear collision detection system which will flash the hazard lights to alert surrounding traffic to a potential impact.
