====Equipment==== [[File:2009 Audi Q5 SE TDi Quattro - Flickr - The Car Spy (12).jpg|thumb|Interior]]

[[Harman International Industries|Harman/Becker Automotive Systems]] produced Audi's new updated [[Multi Media Interface]] (MMI) technology for Q5. The new system includes navigation, communication, and [[wide-screen]] entertainment. A [[3D computer graphics|three-dimensional]] orientation view with true-to-scale terrain and photo realistic depictions of key landmarks will also be generated. Included features in this new system are [[Universal Serial Bus|USB]] storage media ([[iPod]] or MP3), [[satellite radio]], and an integral four-band [[GSM]] [[mobile phone|mobile/cell phone]] (SIM card ready) with [[Bluetooth]] connectivity.

S line package includes 20-inch S line wheels, [[headlight washer]]s, sport steering wheels with [[Paddle shift|shift paddles]], brushed aluminium inlays, S line aluminium door sills, and a black headliner. The Offroad exterior package includes front and rear underbody protection panels, along with flared fender and door sill protection.

====Carrying and towing capabilities==== A sensor informs the ESP system if a roof rack has been mounted, which will cause the Audi Q5's centre of gravity to be shifted higher in keeping with the roof load of up to {{convert|100|kg|lb|abbr=on}}. If a roof rack is present, the ESP engages earlier in the handling limit. Without a roof load, the driver is free to tap the full dynamic potential of the Audi Q5.

The Audi Q5 is capable of towing up to 2.0 tonnes; the standard [[hill descent control]] system makes it safe to navigate down steep inclines by regulating the preselected speed when driving at under {{convert|30|km/h|mph|abbr=on}}. The Q5 is also fitted with an advanced [[Trailer Stability Program]] designed to combat any unwanted snaking when towing a large trailer or caravan.

====Production==== The new vehicle was expected to be built in Audi's home town of [[Ingolstadt]]. An investment of €300 million in production tooling and expansion was expected.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.autoweb.com.au/cms/A_106832/title_New-Audi-Q5-Confirmed-For-Production-In-Germany/newsarticle.html |title=New Audi Q5 Confirmed For Production in Germany |publisher=Autoweb.com.au |date=24 May 2006 |access-date=17 October 2010 |url-status = dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100528185435/http://www.autoweb.com.au/cms/A_106832/title_New-Audi-Q5-Confirmed-For-Production-In-Germany/newsarticle.html |archive-date=28 May 2010 |df=dmy }}</ref>

===2012 facelift===

Main changes include a redesigned set of front and rear light configuration, and a new set of engines that increase both output and efficiency. Most interior user controls have narrow chrome trim. Ergonomics changes include 4-button [[MMI navigation plus]] system, additional skip function for volume dial. Large fabric-upholstered surfaces are standard on the door trim panels; inlay options include three wood veneers and one aluminium version.

The SQ5 performance [[crossover (automobile)|crossover SUV]] is the first Audi S model vehicle to feature a diesel engine. The primary power plant is a {{convert|2967|cc|L|1|abbr=on|order=flip}}, twin turbocharged V6 engine coupled to an 8-speed [[Tiptronic]] transmission, developing 313 PS at 3,900–4,500 rpm, and {{convert|650|Nm|0|abbr=on}} of torque at 1,450–2,800 rpm. It also features Audi's signature [[Quattro (four-wheel-drive system)|quattro]] [[permanent all-wheel drive]] system with [[torque vectoring]] transfer. Sport suspension lowers the vehicle body by {{convert|30|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} and 20-inch 5 parallel-spoke wheels with 255/45 tires are fitted as standard, with the option of upgrading to 21-inch wheels. Other features of the SQ5 are black front brake callipers with Audi 'S' badges, an optional Audi drive select system, a platinum-grey single-frame grille with galvanized double bars, two SQ5 unique body colours (Estoril Blue or Panther Black), optional lunar silver headlining, Pearl Nappa leather/Alcantara power-adjustable sport seats with optional leather upholstery in a choice of four colours, brushed aluminium inlays with optional Carbon Atlas, Piano finish or Aluminium/Beaufort wood trim panels.<ref name="Audi AG/Audi Worldwide">{{cite web|url=https://www.audi.co.uk/content/dam/audi/production/PDF/PriceAndSpecGuides/q5-sq5.pdf|title=The Audi Q5 and SQ5 Pricing and Specification Guide|publisher=Audi AG/Audi Worldwide|date=January 2014}}</ref> The SQ5 TDI accelerates from 0–{{convert|62|mph|0|abbr=on}} in 5.1 secs, and is electronically limited to 155 mph.

====North America==== The second generation Q5 was launched in North America in 2018. Production shifted from Germany to the new Audi México, S.A. de C.V. factory in [[San José Chiapa|San José Chiapa, Puebla, México]]. The Q5 was launched with a 2.0 TFSI petrol engine. Power output was {{convert|252|hp|kW PS|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|273|lbft|Nm|0|abbr=on}}. Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive system is standard, however it uses ‘Quattro with Ultra Technology’. According to Audi, Ultra technology improves efficiency by decoupling the driveshaft to the rear wheels when all-wheel drive is not needed. Essentially the vehicle becomes front wheel drive when cruising, or in other driving situations where the vehicle's computers determine all-wheel traction is not needed. Audi claims the system is able to re-engage power to the rear wheels within milliseconds of the system detecting or predicting slip or the driver accelerating aggressively.

Unlike in the previous 8R generation Q5, US vehicles are only offered with the 2.0T TFSI I-4 engine. The 2.0T ‘45 TFSI’ model offers acceleration similar to the previous generation's 3.0 TFSI Supercharged V6 (face-lifted Q5 8R, 2013–2017) while using less fuel and reduced emissions. No TDI version will be offered in North America due to the fallout from the diesel emissions scandal. Bucking an industry-wide trend of moving away from dual clutch transmissions for the latest generation of conventional torque converter automatics, Audi actually replaced the previous generation's [[ZF 8HP]] 8-speed automatic transmission for their own 7-speed S-Tronic dual clutch gearbox.

The SQ5 is offered as a performance variant of the Q5. In North American spec, it uses a 3.0L DOHC direct-injected Miller Cycle-capable 90° V6 with a single twin-scroll turbocharger. This engine, dubbed EA839, is a substantially reworked version of the previous-generation supercharged V6 (EA837) that was used in the first generation Q5 3.0T and SQ5. Power output for the turbocharged engines remains at {{convert|354|hp|0|abbr=on|order=flip}}, however torque increases to {{convert|369|lb.ft|0|abbr=on|order=flip}} at only 1370 rpm. Unlike the lesser powered Q5 ‘45 TFSI’ 2.0T, Audi retained ZF's 8HP transmission for the SQ5, and it also utilizes the full-time rear-biased quattro AWD system. Utilizing the Torsen CSM self-locking center differential, default power distribution is 40% front/60% rear. The center differential can instantaneously divert up to 70% of available engine power to the front wheels or up to 85% to the rear wheels. This permanent version of the Quattro AWD system is also available with the torque-vectoring rear "sport differential".

For the 2019 model year, heated front seats, rear electric child locks, 7-inch infotainment screen, and roof crossbars became standard equipment. For the Premium Plus trim, rear USB charge ports and wireless charging became standard while for Prestige trims, park assist was made standard. The Convenience Package was expanded to include the Audi side assist and Audi pre sense rear safety systems. In addition, Audi introduced a "black optic" package for the Q5, featuring black exterior trim and unique wheels. The SQ5 also became available in the Premium trim.<ref>{{Cite web |date=November 8, 2018 |title=Audi of America announces full 2019 model year updates |url=https://media.audiusa.com/en-us/releases/280 |website=Audi Newsroom}}</ref>

In 2020, Audi introduced the Q5 TFSI e plug-in hybrid variant. It featured a 14.1 kWh [[lithium-ion battery]], giving an EPA estimated {{convert|20|mi|km}} of range. A heat pump was implemented into the climate control system, providing for greater heating efficiency. The plug-in variant also received the Turbo Blue and Daytona Gray colors, available only on the plug-in variant and SQ5 models. It produced {{convert|362|hp|kW PS|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|369|lbft|Nm|0|abbr=on}} of torque and had a {{convert|0|-|60|mph|km/h|abbr=on}} time of 5.0 seconds, nearly a second faster than the standard Q5.<ref>{{Cite web |date=January 16, 2020 |title=Top-selling Audi SUV, 2020 Audi Q5 gets efficient boost with plug-in hybrid |url=https://media.audiusa.com/en-us/releases/381 |website=Audi Newsroom}}</ref> For the 2022 model year, the battery size was increased to 17.9 kWh, increasing the EPA range to {{convert|23|mi|km}}.<ref>{{Cite web |date=April 28, 2020 |title=Audi announces model year 2022 updates with increased standard equipment, driver assistance and personalization options |url=https://media.audiusa.com/en-us/releases/474 |website=Audi Newsroom}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=2022 Audi Q5 PHEV Will Go Further With Bigger Battery: EPA Rating |url=https://insideevs.com/news/519680/2022-audi-q5phev-epa-range/ |access-date=2022-03-06 |website=InsideEVs |language=en}}</ref>

The base Q5 is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four engine producing 268 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque, representing a 7-horsepower increase over the previous 45 TFSI powertrain.<ref name=":0" /><ref>{{Cite web |title=2026 Audi Q5 Preview: Specs, Price, Release Date |url= https://www.carsdirect.com/audi/q5/2026 |access-date=2025-12-15 |website=CarsDirect |language=en}}</ref> All Q5 variants feature Audi's new 48-volt Mild Hybrid Plus system producing 18 kW and 230 N⋅m, capable of operating on pure electric power at low speeds.<ref>{{Cite web |title=2026 Audi Q5/SQ5 Review |url=https://www.carsauce.com/car-review/2026-audi-q5-sq5-review |access-date=2025-12-15 |website= carsauce.com |language=en-AU}}</ref> Power is transmitted through a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission with standard all-wheel drive, achieving 0-60 mph acceleration in 5.8 seconds. The performance-oriented SQ5 features a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 engine generating 362 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque, an increase from the previous model's 349 horsepower. Maximum towing capacity for both models is rated at {{cvt|4,400|lb}}, with cargo space of {{cvt|1,473|l|cuft}} for the Q5 and {{cvt|1,388|l|cuft}}for the SQ5 Sportback.

The interior features an {{cvt|11.9|in|cm|adj=on}} digital instrument cluster and a {{cvt|14.5|in|cm|adj=on}} touchscreen for the infotainment system, with an optional {{cvt|10.9|in|cm|adj=on}} passenger display available on Prestige trim levels. All displays utilize bright panels with quick response times and deep black contrast, though the instrument cluster offers reduced customization compared to the previous generation. Climate controls have been relocated to a dedicated section at the bottom of the center touchscreen, though physical buttons remain absent despite criticism from reviewers. An available [[Bang & Olufsen]] audio system features 16 speakers with noise canceling technology, while Dynamic Interaction Light spans the width of the cabin displaying welcome, locking, and turn signal animations. The Q5 Prestige and all SQ5 trim levels come standard with air suspension featuring active adaptive dampers, an uncommon feature in the luxury compact SUV segment.

Plug-in hybrid e-hybrid variants were revealed in June 2025, featuring the same 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor and a 25.9 kWh battery pack (20.7 kWh usable). Two power levels are offered: 295 horsepower and 362 horsepower, with the higher output matching the SQ5's power rating. The battery capacity represents a 45 percent increase over the previous generation, providing approximately {{cvt|62|mi|sigfig=2}} of electric range on the WLTP cycle, up from {{cvt|38|mi|sigfig=2}}. Base pricing for the 2026 Q5 starts at approximately $54,000, positioning it competitively against rivals such as the [[BMW X3]] and [[Mercedes-Benz GLC]].
