Audi has released a teaser of the next-generation Q5. The SUV will make its global debut on September 2, 2024.



The new Audi Q5 will be based on the Premium Platform Combustion (PPC) architecture, which underpins the new A5. The PPC platform supports Audi’s next-generation internal combustion and hybrid powertrains.

The teaser image is a design sketch of the new Q5 and focuses on the redesigned headlamp cluster. It appears to be a twin-pod unit with an LED DRL up top.

The new Q5 is expected to adopt Audi’s latest design language, featuring a sportier front grille. Spy images have revealed a wider single-frame grille with vertical vents on either side. The rear of the Q5 is likely to feature slim LED taillights connected by an LED light bar.

I feel like Audi and Volkswagen design are slowly merging into one. Everything looks like a blob.

Remove the Humungous Grille in the front, and they all look like a variation of the VW ID4 design.

Official Info. on the New Audi 5.

The new Audi Q5 SUV: proven concept in its third generation

The new Audi Q5 SUV: Dynamic design, high variability, new infotainment, and modern operating concept.
First SUV model on the Premium Platform Combustion (PPC) with efficient, partially electrified combustion engines.
Gernot Döllner, CEO of AUDI AG: "As the second model of our new generation of highly efficient combustion engines, this new edition of the successful model marks the next important step in the rejuvenation of our portfolio"

Practical: space concept and variability
The latest generation of the new Audi Q5 has gained significantly in key product attributes – and occupants can feel this from the very first time they experience it. In combination with the new interior concept, the result is a comfortable feeling of space with ample head and legroom.
Purism and dynamism: the exterior design
The third generation of the Q5 SUV models has become even sportier and offers perfect proportions. The taut and high shoulder line creates a powerful silhouette, connects the front and rear lights, and makes the vehicle appear longer. Above the sill, a rising line runs over the wheel arches and into the rear bumper, giving the vehicle a dynamic appearance even when stationary.
Three conformation characteristics and eleven colors
Three versions are available: basic, advanced exterior and S line exterior. In addition, the S model is given an independent exterior appearance. In the S line exterior and the S model, the front air intakes are larger and designed as aero tubes in an L-wing shape. The diffuser at the rear is significantly sportier. The black exterior package is also available for the exterior S line and the S model.

There is a choice of eleven colors for the new Audi Q5 models, including the Arkona White solid paint finish. Glacier White, Mythos black, Floret Silver, Navarra Blue, Grenadine Red, District Green and the new color Tambora Gray are available as metallic paint finishes. Ultra Blue metallic, Daytona Grey pearl effect and the new Sakhir Gold metallic are available exclusively for the S models or vehicles with exterior S line. Particularly high-quality and, depending on the customer's wishes, personally configurable individual paint finishes from Audi exclusive are also available for the Q5 models.

The new Audi Q5 SUV models on the German market are equipped with alloy wheels in sizes from 17 to 21 inches, depending on the exterior and engine. Aerodynamically optimized wheels are available as an option for sizes between 17 and 19 inches. The S line exterior and the S model come with 19-inch wheels as standard.

Forged 21-inch wheels in S design, which are familiar from other S vehicles, are available as an option. The optional 21-inch tricolor wheel is the extravagant highlight of the wheel range.
Dynamic interaction light
The clearly designed interior of the Q5 SUV is also highlighted in the dark. The contour light in the dashboard and doors emphasizes the width of the interior, while the indirect light below the Curved Audi MMI Panorama Display and in the center console creates a visual floating effect. The high-quality materials in the doors are illuminated to great effect. Added to this is the dynamic interaction light (IAL), which spans the entire width of the interior as an LED light strip and supports the occupants' interaction with the vehicle. On the one hand, the IAL serves to showcase the interior and offers, for example, a welcome function or indicates when the vehicle is locked and unlocked. On the other, it provides support when it comes to safety: for example, the dynamic indicator light is visualized. This enhances the display in the Virtual Cockpit. The IAL always remains an additional display and does not replace the turn signals in the Virtual Cockpit. The dynamic interaction light is part of the ambient lighting package plus.
Impressive by day and night: the lighting design
With the new Audi Q5 SUV, Audi not only underlines its leading role in lighting design and technology, but also goes one step further. The rear lights have a three-dimensional design, spectacularly bringing together the physical and digital worlds in combination with the light strip, which spans the entire width of the vehicle.
Ultra-modern combustion engines with MHEV plus
All models in the Q5 series at market launch are equipped with the highly efficient MHEV plus technology.

The new MHEV plus system with 48-volt electrical system supports the combustion engine, reduces CO2 emissions and at the same time increases performance and driving comfort. Purely electric maneuvering and parking are also possible to a limited extent.

The powertrain generator (PTG) generates an additional drive torque of up to 230 Newton meters and up to 18 kW (24 hp) of power. The 48-volt system also enables the use of an electrically driven air conditioning compressor. This offers the advantage that even when the engine is switched off – for example when coasting or at a red light – the air conditioning system continues to operate at full power and keeps the interior at a comfortable temperature.

The lithium-ion battery of the vehicles with MHEV plus is based on lithium iron phosphate chemistry (LFP) and has a storage capacity of 1.7 kilowatt hours. The main tasks of the belt starter generator are to start the engine and supply electrical energy to the battery. The new powertrain generator (PTG) enables electric driving, relieves the combustion engine, and helps reduce fuel consumption. When decelerating, the powertrain generator (TSG) feeds up to 25 kW of energy back into the battery (recuperation). The PPC enables gradual electrification in the form of mild hybrids. Later in the lifecycle of the new Audi Q5, plug-in hybrids with a large battery and external charging option will also follow.

Three engine versions at market launch
In Europe, the Audi Q5 SUV models will be launched with three engine versions, with further drive variants to follow. At market launch, all variants will be equipped with MHEV plus technology, which can provide up to 18 kW (24 PS) of additional power for short periods. All models use the 7-speed S tronic dual-clutch transmission.

The entry-level engine is the 2.0 TFSI. It delivers 150 kW (204 PS)3, 340 Newton meters of maximum torque and is equipped with front-wheel drive. As an option quattro all-wheel drive is also available.

The Audi Q5 is available with the 2.0 TDI in the EA288 evo generation. It delivers 150 kW (204 PS)4 and 400 Newton meters of torque and is only available with quattro all-wheel drive.

Audi is offering the Audi SQ51 as the top model in the series at market launch. The V6 TFSI with a displacement of three liters produces 270 kW and has a maximum torque of 550 Newton meters.
Market launch and prices
The new Audi Q5 SUV and Audi SQ5 SUV1 will be launched in Germany and numerous other European countries in the first quarter 2025. The Audi Q5 family will be available to order in Germany from September 2024. Prices for the new models start at 52,300 euros for the Audi Q5 SUV TFSI 150 kW3.

The Audi Q5 SUV TFSI quattro 150 kW5 costs from 54,650 euros; the diesel-powered Audi Q5 TDI quattro 150 kW4 starts at 57,100 euros.

The Audi SQ5 SUV1 starts at 82,900 euros.








Audi also offers an all-black 20-inch wheel for the Q5¹. Valencia Pollex calls it the “Batman wheel.”
In keeping with the character of the Q5¹, there is a visually very powerful 20-inch five-spoke wheel.

Easily the best looking midsize luxury crossover from the German three. Looks a lot sharper than the GLC (which I find too glitzy and ostentatious) and way, way better than the malformed jelly that is the X3. I really hope Audi brings back the 4-pot diesel along with some optional extras as standard and some dual-tone wheels. This could genuinely be the back-to-form vehicle for Audi if they play their cards properly

[deepjaju]

Such a well proportioned and mature car. This could be the one that can turn the luck for Audi India.
Hope they spec the car appropriately as per the price. Luxury cars no longer lead the pack in terms of new tech/features these days.

Audi SQ5

It will have the V6 TFSI engine with a displacement of three liters, develops 367 hp and has a maximum torque of 550 Nm.

[Kartikaygaur]

What an absolutely good looking car. Audi generally prices it's products well and there are discounts on top. Let's hope they bring this one in soon and don't make it a very long wait. This is a winner in my opinion

[brraj]

Will the Audi SQ5 be launched in India?
