Thinking of buying the 2011 Audi Q5?
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2011 Audi Q5 for sale by us right now. For anyone shopping for the 2011 Audi Q5, here are the facts that matter.
Recalls and complaints
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
The numbers in plain words
Under the hood: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo and all-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
At 10.5 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 32 litres of fuel. For 1,000 km, budget about $183.80 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,750 a year for 15,000 miles.
Inside and out
Being an SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well.
Who the Q5 suits
It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Try before you buy
Rent the Q5 for a week and see how it fits your life. A week with the Q5 answers more than any brochure. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
Running costs
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $183.80 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. The EPA estimates US$3,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Picking a year and a trim
Within the 2011 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
Send a request
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
Rent it for a week before you buy
