Introduction to the 2025 Audi Q5 and SQ5 Sportback
The 2025 Audi Q5 and SQ5 Sportback have made their debut, offering a more refined option for those who find the traditional squared-off SUV design less appealing. With a sleeker profile, these sportbacks retain the luxury and performance Audi is known for while providing a modern twist on their design.
Performance Features of the New Sportbacks
Under the hood, the 2025 Audi Q5 is powered by a 268-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, while the SQ5 Sportback boasts an impressive 362 horsepower from its turbocharged 3.0-liter V6. Both variants are equipped with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and standard all-wheel drive, making them capable performers on the road. Although specific powertrain details for the U.S. market are pending, expectations align with their squared counterparts.
Design Innovations and Interior Upgrades
The design enhancements of the Audi Q5 and SQ5 Sportback include a striking new front fascia with an enlarged grille and dynamic LED headlights. The sloping roofline of the sportbacks, while sacrificing some cargo space—offering 18 cubic feet behind the rear seats—adds to their aesthetic appeal. Inside, the updated dashboard is laden with digital displays, including a 14.3-inch center touchscreen and an 11.9-inch gauge cluster, ensuring a high-tech environment for both the driver and passengers.
The anticipated arrival of these models to U.S. dealerships is set for early 2025, with details on specifications and pricing expected soon. For luxury SUV aficionados, the 2025 Audi Q5 and SQ5 Sportback promise a blend of style and performance that is hard to resist.
