Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Thoughtful interior storage cubbies,
generous maximum towing capability,
cabin is well isolated from the road.

Cons
Forgettable driving demeanor,
top trims are priced higher than key rivals,
not as off-road capable as a Jeep.

Pros
Handsome and spacious interior
Balanced ride and handling
Long list of standard features

Cons
Dated infotainment system
Above-average starting price

Like the regular Q5, the high-performance SQ5 receives a host of exterior updates, including an all-new Sportback variant, for 2021 to freshen its look. New exterior lighting elements, a tweaked grille and bumpers, and new wheel designs differentiate it from last year's model. The top-spec Prestige gets OLED taillights as standard, and two new colors join the palette: Ultra Blue and District Green.

Pros
Handsomely-equipped cabin,
comfortable ride,
decent fuel economy for a performance SUV.

Cons
Not overly spacious,
turbo V-6 doesn't match rivals' horsepower,
handling not as sharp as it could be.

Sportier Sportback does well to not compromise on practicality, but you’ll pay a premium for odd looks.

Pros
Impressively practical despite the roof,
interior is still top of the class

Cons
It will give you an existential crisis.
What is it all for?
