The Q5 TFSI is the entry-level version of the premium mid-size SUV at launch, starting from $81,000 before on-roads.
It replaces the entry-level TDI, swapping diesel power for petrol. In this case, it is a front-wheel-drive 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol (150kW/340Nm), driving the front wheels via a seven-speed automatic transmission.
However, for this new-generation version, it also adds hybrid assist thanks to Audi's new MHEV+ electrified powertrain.
Standard features include 19-inch alloy wheels, matrix LED headlights, an 11.9-inch digital dash, and a 14.5-inch multimedia touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
It also has online connectivity with built-in navigation, an eight-speaker sound system, leather interior trim with brushed aluminium inlays, a wireless phone charger, 360-degree parking camera, a power adjust driver's seat, heated front seats, tri-zone climate, as well as keyless entry and push-start ignition.
The MHEV+ system, which provides an additional 18kW/230Nm of electric assistance, powered by a 1.7kWh battery pack, helps the Q5 TFSI achieve fuel efficiency of 5.7L/100km.
Boot space measures 520 litres with five seats up or up to 1473 litres with the second row folded down. There is no spare, just a tyre repair kit under the floor.
Audi's Q5 is covered by a five-year and unlimited kilometre warranty, while servicing is at 12 months or 15,000km intervals.
Servicing is cheapest when five years are purchased up-front, with the TFSI costing $3520 ($704 per year) to keep on the road.
