Q5 Sportback

Released December 2024

The second-generation Q5 Sportback, a coupé-roofed version of the Q5 SUV, sold with mild-hybrid petrol and diesel engines, a 299 PS plug-in hybrid and the V6 SQ5 Sportback, all with quattro, suited to buyers who want a sleeker mid-size SUV.

What reviewers say

Reviewers agree the Q5 Sportback is comfortable, quiet on the motorway and composed to drive, with punchy engines. The common criticisms are cabin materials well below the previous model's, less rear headroom than the Q5 SUV for more money and fiddly controls; Auto Express also found its fuel economy disappointing.
