The Retractable screens were the signature of Audi interiors and everyone love them!
Hi Thomas, I really like what a down-to-earth guy you are, despite driving all these super expensive cars all the time. With many of the reviewers from 'professional' auto magazines, you have the feeling that it is completely normal for everyone to change cars after 1 or 2 years of use or to immediately buy the newer model once available (of course, your own income is something different, but that is the case for these journalists, too). Saying something like "if you plan to own the car for 10 years or more, I'd consider ..." just proves that and shows you have not lost connection with the reality of many peoople (of course, many cars are leased by companies etc. now). Great! :)
+ThePixelize thx so much great that someone realizes :)
I'd definitely use a retractable display... it was one of the features I enjoyed the most in an Audi when going for a long drive - hide that distracting display & focus on the road with a beautiful and clean dashboard
It was also a sign of elegance && distinction Audi had - sad to see they are giving it away
Welcome to Mexico Autogefühl team! Have fun! I'm German-Mexican myself, so nice to see some auto reviewers from Germany around :)
beautiful spot that is :)
Best car reviewer always covering in depth details Greetings from a mexican viewer!
gracias!
Finally a very nice SUV inside out! Good job Audi
Really really nice, beautiful colour too. The design has lineage but it's been sharpened up like the A4/5. Interior is now class matching if not leading but it's disappointing that the screen doesn't retract, it may not have been retracted while the car was in use much but they certainly added to the premium feel when it rises from the dashboard, not to mention they can be thinner also adding to the premium feel.
Best car reviewer out there, always look forward to your reviews.
thanks man stick with us !
Thomas, kick underneath, quickly, not slide. 100% success.
This new Q5 is definitely a step up from the old model, but of all the SUVs in the class I still like the F-Pace the most, it's rear wheel bias, more cargo/passenger room and it looks amazing.
I really like it, Q5 and GLC are the ones I will go in this class.
welcome back mr thomas!! back to business! ive read 2017 sq5 will come with electric induction system..thats wen sq5 or q5 will be a vehicle about talking
The most beautiful Audi in this moment.
I like the retractive middle screen like the old A4 or new q7, one of the reasons are that in my country having a Tablet-like screen seems to atract criminal that want to break into the car.
You hit the nail on the head when you mentioned the cost of replacing Air Suspension components - very expensive ordeal! Think many people forget about that kind of stuff.
I had to limp home on a leaky strut once after blowing on a pothole & it was horrible exercise. Fortunately I replaced it myself & saved a bunch but being a Japanese car, 18 years on a single air strut was a good run. My mate had a Mercedes S which needed replacing after 5 years.
PS how was Mexico? Did you feel safe? My dad's from Mexico & I haven't been there for 12 years but I heard it's different now (not in a good way).
+G Rodriguez interesting!
+G Rodriguez baja california was very safe - different from main land
beautiful background on the beach, I noticed you really enjoy the off-road part! Me too, it's very fun
I look forward to Saturday when I get the opportunity to drive the all new Q5 too. Can't wait to test the new air suspension and the next gen. quattro called quattro-ultra. Good Video! Greetings from the Lake of Constance, Niko
+AudiKult 👍
The New SQ5 would be something I am looking forward to.
About the infotainment screen that is not retractable. I drive an Audi A3 from 2013 that has the retractable infotainment screen. It's true I never hide it while I'm driving. However it is a smart and clean solution. I think it gives me a high class feeling when the screen flips up while putting on the ignition. I like that the screen is in a high position in the dashboard, I think it's better for driving security. The retractable screens look so much well integrated in the dashboards than the new ones in the Audi A4, A5, Q5... I think Audi makes a mistake getting rid of the retractable screens.
I miss the exterior exhaust pipes in the new Q5... Why do they hide them?
Again, thanks a lot Thomas for your wonderful reviews !
thanks for the feedback !
Congratulations, really precise, complete and very useful review. Excellent job.
thanks, join us for more reviews !
I absolutely love it. Am definitely waiting for the sq5 I'll focus in selling my kidney meanwhile. Grate review as usual love the change in mood. don't be late on the the other variants I'll be waiting.
also I don't personally own my 1 yet but every time I drove one it was like a toy to me I love the retractable screen
but there is no retractable screen, its fixed...
if I didn't already own a Q5, I would consider it, however, based on the previous model, I feel like this is just a really nice facelift interior and exterior.
I think auto seats should be mandatory in a 45k+ car.....
Yes, but in Germany it is normal for cars (especially audi, bow, mercedes) to not have certain features that are standard in other countries.
How hard was it for you to not jump in that beautiful blue water of the Sea of Cortez! I would have been in that water ASAP!
maybe i've done as we did not film any more ;-)
rear passengers: *legroom* isn't great.
*cargo*: not perfectly flat.
also there's no room to store the cargo cover? (not even under the floor)
an 1.86 person can easily sit behind a 1.86 person sitting on the front, the room is indeed great
These videos are actually amazing.
thanks, keep following us !
I always love watching your reviews
keep reviewing Beautiful cars
Thanks a lot Mr Thomas
with love from India
always appreciated!
Mexico is beautiful and the water looks crystal clear and criply clean.
I use the retractable function on my Audi A3. But that is mostly to make the rattle/squeaking noise from the screen go away, because it drives me mad! The quality of the screen is not 100% as we should expect from Audi. The whole construction should have been stiffer and more solid in my opinion. Maybe Audi should have used some more rubber around the motor/hinges to absorb vibrations. Because when my Audi went past 30 000 driven kilometers the screen started to make rattling/squeaking noises while driving over a speed bump, a little bit of rough road like bad asphalt, gravel or snow as we have a lot of here in Norway. And thats sad. But I love the function. It is a cool party trick! And I like that I have the possibility to play with it and that I can remove the screen while driving at night. To bad they are removing it.
As always, a lovely and solid review! I like coming here to watch car reviews. :)
thanks for the feedback :)
Tomas another outstanding review. Best on the Internet. Ausgezeichnet!
I hope you guys will be doing the same in depth review of the upcoming SQ5! Greetings from Amsterdam!
sure will do
They FINALLY changed that cover in the rear compartment in the 2018 model. It drives me INSANE that I have to take the cover out verses roll it back now if something I put in the back is too high.
beautiful Q5 and great view of Mexico!!!
Great detailed review, you covered items I did not expect or thought of. It needs a retractable display for clear viewing on a long trip or routine commute.
I continue to be impressed by the quality of your reviews. Best of TH-cam in my opinion. Ausgezeichnet!
always in your service!
*Cabin noise* seems really bad (very opposite to your feedback), not sure where the microphone was but that's *a lot of tire rolling/road noise*.
*Direct steering*, well at +90km/h all cars require little steering wheel input (even the oldest ones without steering assistance), it's at low/very low speed that this become useful.
The microphone was not mounted as close to me as you are used to. Cabin noise was great.
Tbh i like the this screen much more then the retraction one
As much as I like this Q5, I do expect a "better' price if I were to purchase this vehicle! I base this on the historical context. Audi charged a price based on cost to build plus a profit margin. If they think people are still going to pay the same price, that are going to be accused of "gouging" the customer from now on.
Made in Mexico, but not made in Mexico pricing.
???
jh5kl Care to elaborate?
TheASTrader
are we serious?
both original comments are comments they have no rational background. even just analising superficially, those are unreasonable arguments one can make to every freaking product on the market, why just say that to a singlecar maker. no even that makes a single nanometer of any sense whatsover
A very and truly great test. Well done!
we really appreciate that!
Thomas, thank you for your review on the 2018 Q5. After looking at Jaguar F-Pace (much more expensive) and Cadillac XT5, I have decided to go with the Audi Q5 Progressive Package. Has everything I need in that trim package and being an Audi customer, and offered many incentives, and having test driven the vehicle today, this was the logical choice. Also drives so nice and handling great. Also, very quiet cabin and loaded with latest technology. Can't go wrong with this Sport SUV.
thanks Stephen! Dont forget to go with fabric or alcantara seats
Seats came in Leather or Leatherette. I do not believe there were any other choices. In Canada, this vehicle comes in the 2.0 TFSI , 4 CYL., 252 HP, Quattro 7speed S tronic and the seats were okay. I thought Audi has announced they will.no longer manufacture Deisel vehicles. I did not ask at the dealership if there was 3.0 engine like in last year's model. I am excited and looking forward to getting my new Q5 in two weeks. Cheers!
By the way, I could have upgraded to the S-Line which would have given me front "sport seats" but this upgrade was another $2,300 and I did not wish to do that.
I want to say I love your videos. I have 2016 Audi A3 TDI which I'm about to return in November. So i'm shopping around for the new hotness come 2017. To answer your question, I never used the retracted function ever for the screen. Currently looking into this model or the new 2017 Audi S3.
thx 4 the feedback!
Great review and excellent video/audio quality as well, if I may ask, what camera/lens setup are you filming with?
I also like Q5 a lot, I just wish that they would make plug-in hybrid with at least 100km electric range or preferably it they just stated making pure electric Q5.
I was hoping this would attract me more than the GLC. Now I'm confused!
Can we hope for a better looking SQ5? At least the sportiness will add more spirit to the car.
Thank you for bringing this car so quickly. Wow! It's like one week after release. You should have good relationship with Audi.
you re welcome m8 !
Excellent review again Thomas thanks.
thanks don !!
Retractable screen always preferred. I do not understand that Audi, BMW and Mercedes have stepped away from it. Cheaper to make? Customers want it? I hear all people around me that they dont like it ...
You are THE reviewer. All details. Nice, really. ;-)
thanks a lot!
Thank You so so so much....for this review. Had been waiting.
hehe you're welcome
Not many people on this beach...the dream !
Yes I used the scren retraction in my Q7.
Then I woke up.
another great video review love seeing the new Audi line up refresh in full detail
way to go !
My boy, Thomas. You would do great in calling the PGA tour games.
LMAO
I dont like how they placed front navigation screen.It should be such as in A6,Q7..
Great review in a fantastic country ;))
Why should they reform the design ? I think even the old generation looked very coherent and dynamic !!
Regarding the foot sensor to open the booth, I've been told by Audi that you don't have to wave, you just move your foot under the bumper like if you want to kick it, not in the center but more on the right side of the bumper
everyone has another method, but at the end of the day, I have never seen someone having a 100 % success rate :)
Autogefühl You're right :-)
Thomas, I don't think you got the front sensors/logo story right: the *ACC sensors* are the pair of black balls on each side of the the lower front fender
why should they put the protector there anyway then? There are sensors behind that thing. But you mean not ACC but others?
Thomas, thank you for all your nice reviews.
I notice, every time you test virtual pedal in Audi/VW/Skoda, it doesn't work 100%.
Could you please try to use your foot just front and back (like kicking) ONE TIME ONLY and then wait?
instead of left and right swipe your foot a couple of times.
Looking forward to your Skoda Kodiaq review and I hope you can demonstrate it correctly if there is a virtual pedal function in the car.
I am hoping the new virtual pedal able to open and close as well.
Thanks again. Keep it up.
+Surat John i tried it in many ways. Its never perfect
i am very interested in buying the new a5 sportback , and i give great credibility to your vídeos and opinion, so for this i am expecting you a review of the new sportback. thank you And best wishes from spain!!!
th-cam.com/video/W1kgkpvQUeU/w-d-xo.html
Full review soon then. Gracias!
Bienvenido a México !!! My loved country.. as always you do a great job reviewing all aspects and always with the newest models congratulations.
gracias !
A very good and detailed review, you give UK journos a good run for best car reviews - well done.
I had the next gen SQ5 at the top of my options for 2017 / 2018 but now I am slightly confused I,e. Build location, all wheel / not all wheel drive!, fixed non retractable screen!.......I can't afford a similarly specked Porsche Cayenne and was really hoping the next gen SQ5 will suffice.
BTW - anyone 6ft or above with kids shouldn't even consider a Porsche Macan. (Absolutely no space in that thing!).
thanks!
Great review as always . Can you do the Suzuki SX4 s-cross facelift review please
thanks! we ll do that
Be aware if ordering this colour for your Q5. It has a more purple /blue hue than shows in this video. The video on the beach shows an electric blue hue probably through using a polariser filter on the camera lens which darkens blue sky and water. It also cuts down light from reflective surfaces. Check out the colour at your dealer first. On dull days the paint shows a purple hue. Check out the coulor of Tanzanite gem stones triple or quadruple grade and you will see a better idea of this Navarre Blue that is in the video
yes, another great review. I agree with you it the changes are very conservative. Some nice touches. I think they could of been a bit more radical.
+Aldo Sassone-Corsi 👍
Never used the retractable screen function actually! Looking forward to seeing the replacement SQ5!
Wonderfull review. Its a beauty,. Thanks Thomas
:)
Great car and great review. Thank you Thomas!
thanks m8 !
Love to be driven in Thomas's driving lounge, I have just bought this car Thomas, I hope its as good as my BMW
Enjoy Colin :)
Three trim levels for the UK --SE,Sport and Sline. SE 2.0 TDI quattro 190 ps Stronic Diesel CO2 at 132 is £37170 --- 2.0 TFSI 252 ps Stronic petrol CO2 157 is £37990. The Sport 2.0 TDI with same CO2 and 190 ps Stronic is £ 38270. The Sport 2.0 TFSI with same CO2 and 252 ps is £39090. The S line 2.0 TDI 190 ps has CO2 of 133 and is £40220. The S line 2.0 TFSI petrol with 252 ps and CO2 of 159 is 41.040. All models are quattro and S tronic gearboxes ( no manual ) SE cars come with 18 inch five twin spoke alloys, twin leather upholstery, heated front seats, audi smartphone interface, Audi Sound System, Parking System Plus, Pre-sense city collision prevention assistance and power operated tailgate. Sport models include (in addition to SE) 18 in five arm star design alloys, Multi media interface (MMI) navigation ( sd card), front sport seats in twin leather, LED interior lighting package and four way electric lumbar support. S line cars in addition to Sport include 19 inch five twin spoke star design alloys, LED headlights with LED rear lights with dynamic rear indicators, S line sport seats in leather/ Alcantara with S embossed logo, S line exterior and interior styling and privacy glass. As yet, no manual gearbox or two wheel drive options which were supposed to be offered. It seems the usual expensive options that Audi has will still be required for many buyers. No mention of electric front seats !! In a car of this price point ?? Oh dear. Will these specs be enough to take sales from BMW or Merc etc who fill their cars with stuff that Audi class as options ? We will wait and see. Delivery times are going to be longer too, as cars have to be exported from Mexico to Emden then imported into the UK dealers. I hope this info helps any UK potential buyers of this car
I hope you do the Audi S5 Sportback review if you guys actually do one.
Manuel Kiatoko Agreed, I can't see any proper reviews on the new S5 yet
NZsarge1 Same here and I've been waiting for those especially for the Sportback.
For instance we can present you S5 coupé: th-cam.com/video/isPwvO4Hr8Q/w-d-xo.html We'll try to get a sportsback quite soon!
th-cam.com/video/BCDb8h4fyTM/w-d-xo.html
Autogefühl Thank you. 🙏🏾
Thanks for the exhaustive review. As the owner of a 2014 A4, I have a couple of quick questions:--- Where is the battery located in the new 2018 Q5? In the engine compartment or in the trunk, under the spare tire?--- Where is the windshield washer tank located. How accessible is it for those frequent winter fill-ups?
such a great review!
way to go!
Another informative and comprehensive video. Muy bien!! ( as they say in Mexico ) But , Navarra blue ? Surely that colour is Tomas blue... :-)) Good point re. air sunspension vs. steel depending if you are buying or leasing.
Thomas blue would rather be Ara or Sepang Blue :)
hey thomas, I would like to see a review of the 2017 Audi TT Coupe. Seems like everyone has done a review on the TT-S and TT-RS, but not so much the regular TT! cheers
Regarding the retractable display, I use mine all the time. I've had my A6 more than 2 years, and I still love the screen appeating when I start the engine.
I'm considering a Q5 as my next car, but I'm sorry Audi cheaped out by eliminating this little bit of automotive theater.
thanks the for feedback!
thanks for the review... crazy levels of Tyre-noise coming in... such a big difference with the Q7 . definitely not enough sound insulation. no retractable screen.... a lot of "put offs".
microphone was too far away mounted
This blue 😍
@24:50 Best way is to kick underneath without pause. I guarantee you will have 100% success rate. Try it.
Best car review I've ever watched. Thorough! Any rattles, buzzes or annoying noises? I own a 2015 SQ5 and its solid. I was curious if the new Q5 has any issues in this regard?
+Station 2Station thanks! No thats good
Great review.I would prefer a retractable screen.
Excellent reviews, very professional. One request please: will you please also give the kW rating besides only HP. Thanks for great work that you guys do
+john doe 👍
I use the A6 retractable screen every journey, every day! Audi is inventing an excuse just to save money. But the Audi clients will not like that'... :(
Thomas, nice review as always.
What you prefer? Glc or new q5?
totally personal preference ... and they both score in a lot of aspects, wont be wrong with either one
HI Thomas, really great review.. Do you know the boot / trunk sizes between of the Q7 and Q5. Thanks mate.
q7 is bigger, check our review: th-cam.com/video/x7vtZhUdIm0/w-d-xo.html
Can you do a suzuki baleno review. I loved you're suzuki celerio review.
Yes we will
Hi Thomas. I love your reviews sir. Thanks you! But great team too. Baha looks really nice. I was waiting for you to run into the sea. Lol.
haha I did actually =)
Thomas with a tan wearing Thomas blue shirt next to a Thomas Blue painted Q5 :D looks good !
+Manny Echaluce 😁
certainement le plus abouti et sérieusement construit des SUV du marché !
Made in Mexico or made in China, which one do you guys prefer?
no comparison dude, Mexico is making good quality cars since a couple of years ago! Mexico all day!
chinese built mercedes audi volvo and bmw are top quality as well....
César Catalán BMW, Benz, Audi are all have plants in China about 10 years ago, and Volvo is acquired by Chinese company. Chinese car brands maybe not as good as those luxurious brands, but also exported to lots countries, does Mexico has its own car brands? We Chinese families can afford those luxurious cars, what about Mexican families? Maybe I have to remind you that China has surpassed USA to be the largest car market on the world in 2009, and where is Mexico?
FULL HD FULL SCREEN AND FULL LENGHT
Let's go
yeah!
i just dont like the rear lights to be fixed on the tailgate as it is opened.
The lights in the bumper turn on when the tail gate is open.
dr 70194 I was thinking the exact same thing, seems very odd because I've seen people carry bulky/long items in their suvs with the tailgate open, like a long piece of lumber. Looks like Audi is trying to get rid of that.
M1MyRifle in this segment i think that the new volvo xc60 is going to be the king. Dont like the audi much.
250hp, s line, flattened steering wheel buttom and no exhaust to be seen? why are more and more automakers hiding the exhaust pipes?
Taras Domshyy I love the dual exhaust on my q5 and it looks great in general on any car. I know Acura took away the dual exhaust on the mdx because it wanted to appear more environmentally friendly.
Are all the new Audi Q5's built in Mexico?
yes
Great Review! Thanks
(Y)
Please try the new Renault Zoe and Chevy Bolt !! THX
great Review! Top
thx!
How will the cruise control work with long EU number plates? :) it'll cover the parts
What an awesome review! Very entertaining and cool.
+James R. Astor from Austria 🇦🇹 ✌️️
***** 👍
To G -- thanks for the reply Gordon. Yup , way too pricey for what it is. It may be a best seller in the last few years, but people are
To G-- Hi Gordon - sent my reply before I was finished lol. Yes it is too expensive for a car that needs so many options added to bring it in line with other SUV's that are out there or coming in the next few months, and at a much lower price point. People are thinking twice before spending so much money these days and are looking for the best value for their money. This new Q5 does not provide this. They should have named it 'The Q5 Option'
You suffered for this review Thomas. Was the Air Con too loud? : )
Ya, can see his face was all wet while driving :O
yes, we always do that, we turn the AC to minium vent level so it doesnt disturb you guys (not kidding, seriously)
The YT Q5 video shows the display tablet mounted ON the dashboard. Yet on the Audi website when building the Q5 price the pictures (#3 & #4) show the display as part of the dashboard. I called Audi USA customer service they verified the Navigation display is inside part of the dashboard instrument panel not on top of the dashboard . Audi is sending me brochures on the Q5. I don't understand why your video shows a difference. Thanks a very nice intro of Q5 video.
this here is the all-new generation. The current US website shows the old generation.
