The 2012 Audi Q5 ranks 1 out of 8 Luxury Compact SUVs. This ranking is based on our analysis of 31 published reviews and test drives of the Audi Q5, and our analysis of reliability and safety data.
If you can afford the 2012 Audi Q5, test drivers say it’s worth every penny because this Best Luxury Compact SUV for the Money offers a lot for the price: standard all-wheel drive, great fuel economy, outstanding performance and a lush cabin.
Parents interested in the Audi Q5 can be confident that it will transport their family in style, but they may wonder if the Q5 can be both stylish and utilitarian. According to the automotive press, the Q5 should do a decent job. The rear seats fit three kids just fine, but three teenagers or college students may be squished. Reviewers’ main gripe with the Q5 is its cargo space. Offering about 29 cubic feet, the space is average for the class, but the Q5’s sliding rear seat may help families pack more efficiently or let teenagers stretch their legs.
For the most part, reviewers aren’t concerned about whether the 2012 Q5 can tackle family duty. They’re mainly impressed with the amount of power that’s available in the base 2.0-liter, four-cylinder turbocharged engine, the 3.2-liter, six-cylinder upgrade and how fuel efficient these engines are. Basically, they’re in love with the Q5, and only suggest the BMX X3 if you want a standard V6 engine at a comparable price.
However, the 2012 Audi Q5 is pricey when options are added. The base model is well-equipped, but it’s easy to surpass the $40,000 mark when options like navigation, a sunroof, heated front seats or a more powerful engine are added. If the 2012 Audi Q5 is at the top of your budget, Consumer Guide suggests sticking with the Q5’s base trim. Or, you can spring for theCadillac SRX or Acura RDX, which cost about $3,000 less.
