Really nice exterior however the interior have same (for me) problems as many other new Audi's. They have saved money (I guess) by adding screens for everything. So the climate controls are no longer physical buttons but embedded functions in a screen which to me is rally bad and a bit dangerous since you need let go from your road focus to adjust. Then gone are all the lovely aluminum trims that have been trademark in earlier models premium interiors-instead its black glossy plastics that is not so premium at all in my eyes. It also collect smudges and really do not look so good. Also with all the physical buttons gone there's no more "clicks" from turning them which where so satisfying before. Lastly it seems as also the classic instrument dials with red and white color are gone. So to me the interior is rather sad from these perspectives. However Im sure there are many out there that really like the new interior design so Im sure this car will sell well. Plus most cars nowadays do as Audi and use screens for everything-for me I have my iPad and computer at home...perhaps an age thing..
Exterior : - Look very good specially on the tail light. - Head light is genius and looking very good. - Red color is not for me, i wish to see Matte Gray or Black Interior : - Graphic interface on the screen look like a IBM computer from "80 - The ambient light on rear passenger door ridiculous short. - Will nice if Audi offer Red interior. Overall look good but i'll pick 2024 Mercedes Benz AMG GLC 43 coupe over this one.
If this is built in Mexico like the standard Q5, buyer beware of many quality control issues, and supplied parts being substandard. I’m speaking from experience of one of their Q5s.
@ hi, I must have got the car they trained the production line staff on, before they worked full time. Started off with the kick plate light ( drivers side) not working on delivery - no locking wheel nut removal nut supplied - tinny clanging noise when taking my foot off the brake pedal. Audi changed the servo, didn’t work, changed the master cylinder, worked for a while then noise came back. Two rear springs broken in exactly the same place ( 12,000 miles done on very good roads). Electric motor underneath passenger seat failed.- air con compressor seized, resulting in large auxiliary engine belt melting and snapping, leaving me to limp home with a dashboard lit up like a xmas tree. Both front lower bent arm bushes beginning to split ( 20,000 miles). Brake pad warning light activated, pads are only half worn through. Tracking was terrible on rear wheels from new, wearing out both tyres on the outside, while tyres were almost new on the inside at 10,000 miles. Not the best introduction to Audi, I’m sure you will agree. It took a year or more to get Audi to admit to the clanging brake pedal issue. Sent e-mails to the top man of Audi UK before anything got done. Apparently they are fitting a different design of master cylinder to cars now. Dealer admitted that many early cars had problems with broken springs. Dealer says there is an issue with the brake pad warning light cables failing and sending false alarms to the dash. If Audi is aware of these issues, why are there no recalls to replace faulty, poor quality parts ? Had my last car for 20 years, driving the same roads, and never had any issues like I have had with the Audi Q5. Would I buy another Audi ? Probably not. Great car to drive and love the 2ltr tfsi engine, but the amount of issues experienced and only covered 21,000 miles to date, will make me look elsewhere pretty soon I think. I know there will be owners like yourself having no issues, but the amount of issues I’ve experienced on one car is unacceptable to me on a car of this price point.
I'm liking this a lot more than the new X3 M50.
Pep resigns and joins Audi design team?
Best looking ever ❤

Audi need a designer asap
Beautiful! Finally, a new design for the q5!
You couldn't hide the rear wiper under the spoiler?
Wanted the Macan to be something (ice) like this 😭
Power meets elegance-the 2025 Audi SQ5 Sportback is redefining luxury SUVs with style and performance.
Exterior :
- Look very good specially on the tail light.
- Head light is genius and looking very good.
- Red color is not for me, i wish to see Matte Gray or Black
Interior :
- Graphic interface on the screen look like a IBM computer from "80
- The ambient light on rear passenger door ridiculous short.
- Will nice if Audi offer Red interior.
Overall look good but i'll pick 2024 Mercedes Benz AMG GLC 43 coupe over this one.
Why interior look cheap
Is the Sportback coming to North America? I would hope they bring to the US. Better than the regular Q5.
Oh you did compromise in interior
Same as the old one
Why do people like to ride in these vans as much as sedans and station wagons?
Gays people

I bought a 2024 SQ5 a year ago and owned a 2018 SQ5 and 2020 Q5. They were all built in Mexica and I had no issues...

@@vtechead1 It sounds like you've had some bad luck man!
@ 😂👍
Germany & American Auto industry has been far behind China😅
the interior, with no straight lines on the IP, no paralellism, no simetry seems that nothings is aligned, and looks improvised, not goot at all.
👌
Really nice and excellent beauty design
Front grille design 🙃🙄🤮
