We drive the new Audi Q5 to see how this luxury midsize SUV compares.
Is the 2021 Audi Q5 facelift a worthwhile upgrade to the best selling vehicle that Audi makes? With subtle changes to the design outside, new technology inside and more power across most engines, the 2021 Q5 is a better value proposition than before - but should you bother upgrading? And should you buy an Audi Q5 instead of a BMW X3, Mercedes-Benz GLE or Volvo XC60?
The Audi Q5 is available in four cylinder petrol 45 TFSI and four cylinder diesel 40 TDI forms, plus 50 TDI and SQ5 diesels with six cylinders.
In today’s video, Tom takes a detailed look at the Q5 45 TFSI and the Q5 40 TDI to give you detailed insights about this vehicle.

I really like how well you explain the significance of having air suspension included as an option. Your detailed analysis, pros and cons, etc (without the use of sarcasm) makes it worthwhile to watch your channel. Well done.

Hey Tom, (fellow wagon enthusiast) any chance of you getting behind the wheel of an A4 Avant? Loved your review on the 330i Touring, would love to know how they compare. The RS6 is my dream car but just a little bit out of reach.

Thank you for a very comprehensive review. I was saddened to see Audi have gone for the “iPad” popping out of the dash rather than the modern trend (even the Tiguan has) of a large touch screen that blends into the dash. Such an aesthetic design, except for the “iPad”. For me it is a deal breaker.

Hi Tom, With the Q5 and the design of the rear lights and tail gate, my question is at night time and the head and tail lights are on and you are on the side of the road and you open up the tail gate, the rear opens up, for safety, what is there for traffic approaching from a distance that will warn the driver there is a car ahead? just a thought you might want to tell your viewers...cheers!.... I love your reviews, keep up the great work!🍻.

Hi Tom, With the air suspension added, besides been more comfortable isn't there a button in the rear luggage department so people can lower the height for loading stuff in the back or is that only in euro specs? Cheers🍻

I bought X3 30i (248hp) late last year and remember someone telling me that Audi does not have good resale value here in NSW. Not sure if it is true. That rotary mmi dial is so useful when driving and thanks to bmw of keeping it. Ride quality in Q5 is smooth as compared to X3 (adaptive suspension) but coz of air suspension Q5 is not very dynamic and fun to drive. IMO. We all are a mix of people, sometimes we want a sport suv and sometimes we want it to be as comfy as possible.

Good review again Tom. The green is certainly polarizing. Interesting to do a comparison between the 4 cylinder diesel Q5 vs Kodiaq VRs from a value angle. No air suspension on Skoda but everything else seems fairly similar.

Is it just me or this car looks smaller and more compact than the pre face lift model? Good job to the designer for being able to hide the size.. I much prefer this version on the outside.. This segment is really heating up with incoming GV70 and NX, updated GLC and Q5 and X3..
