When we test drove the Audi Q5, we were impressed with its overall package. The Q5 not only have typical Audi merits. Anything from its styling flair to beautifully made interior, it also has the best handling/ride compromise in compact SUV class. Its 265hp 3.2 liter V6 FSI engine has provided enough grunt while returning decent fuel economy.
Over the next couple of months, we will put the Q5 into the long-term test. As we will see whether this new benchmark lives up to its billing. As well as how does the Quattro fares up in tough Canadian winter.
