The all-new 2021 Audi Q5 Sportback has arrived and is ready to go

 

Very similar to the Q5 in terms of specs, the Q5 Sportback is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-litre that delivers 261 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque paired to a 7-speed S-Tronic gearbox. Quattro all-wheel drive is standard and getting to 100 km/h takes just 6.1 seconds.

 

The 2021 Audi SQ5 Sportback, meanwhile, takes performance to another level with its 3.0-litre turbocharged V6 pushing out 349 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. This gets the new SQ5 Sportback to 100 km/h in just 5.0 seconds.

 

 

The Audi Q5 Sportback starts at $55,400 while the SQ5 Sportback starts at $66,750. The difference between the SQ5 Sportback and SQ5 in terms of price is small, but buyers may notice a larger difference between the Q5 Sportback and the regular Q5. That’s because the Q5 Sportback starts at the Progressiv Trim while the Q5 has an entry-level Komfort trim. That means that the Sportback offers:

 

• A range of driver assistance features including Lane departure warning • Power tailgate with foot-activation • 19-inch wheels • Heated steering wheel • Heated front seats • Leather seats • 10-speaker Audi sound system • Panoramic power sunroof • 10.1-inch display • SiriusXM • Wireless CarPlay

 

All standard. Overall, the difference between the Q5 Sportback and Q5 translates to roughly $2,250.

 

 

The sleeker design of the Audi Q5 Sportback doesn’t mean that one must sacrifice cargo capacity. With the rear seats folded down, the Q5 Sportback and Q5 have nearly the same cargo area. With the rear seats up, the Sportback loses roughly 140 litres, but it is still more spacious than the BMW X4 and Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe, its direct competitors.

 

The 2021 Audi Q5 Sportback and SQ5 Sportback give you the same great Audi Q5 driving experience and perfect blend of comfort and performance, but with a design that is sure to get noticed. Visit us today and learn more about the all-new Audi Q5 Sportback.
