    I picked up a tdi Q5 as a daily this summer, and with the S package, it's a great road trip and commuter rig. Definitely a fan of the Q5 platform.

    These are nice! I've driven a 2015, back when they were supercharged. New one looks sweet!

    Green is a good color. This is out of my budget, though.

    It sure isn't as gharstly as most crossovers. Clean lines, decent proportions for a SUV, nice interior... It's almost elegant. But those fake exhaust tips are >so< unnecessary... I mean, it is almost there like a few inches away :P

    • @HelloRoad
      @HelloRoad  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It looks pretty great for a crossover! But absolutely, if you're not going to highlight the real exhaust, I'd rather not have fake exhaust tips-just leave that design element out!

    Great to finally see this one. I think I'd be a little crestfallen if I spent 70 grand on the sportiest version to find it lacking in the sportiest settings.
    You'd think with modern adjustability, Audi would make the most dynamic setting TRULY dynamic!

    • @HelloRoad
      @HelloRoad  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes!! Get the green!!! Initially my expectations were not quite in line with how Audi has positioned this vehicle. After driving it for a few days it clicked-this is not a canyon carver, and Audi isn't really pitching it as such. It's a refined SUV with a ton of power and a touch of athleticism. Once I figured out who the car was for, it makes a lot more sense. But you're right, I still think they could've dialed up the excitement in Dynamic mode! :)

    1) "please buy this green. Buy less gray." I couldn't agree more, STOP BUYING SILVER AND GRAY FOR A WHILE. It's so god damned boring and now carmakers are removing actual color to make room for more gray. Who needs a car available in 5 shades of freaking gray?
    2) "Most buyers of the SQ5 drivers won't be driving as much like an idiot as I do..." ... oh, Ethan... ALL Audi drivers are idiots behind the wheel.
    3) 72 grand for a somewhat cramped in the rear 5-seat crossover that doesn't even have cooled front seats? No, I'd spend 50 grand on a much larger 3-row Palisade Calligraphy that has all the features this thing is missing and can actually fit my family of freakish giants, then take a small amount of the 22 grand left over and fix the suspension on my Miata, and play with that whenever I've got the mid-life crisis blues. Or wait 2 more years and see what 3-row EV offerings are available.
