    The 2018 Audi Q5 Progressiv: before you buy

    No 2018 Audi Q5 Progressiv is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. For anyone shopping for the 2018 Audi Q5 Progressiv, here are the facts that matter.

    Before you sign for the Q5

    Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. NHTSA has 208 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, unknown or other and engine. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

    Specs, explained

    Its 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo drives through a 7-speed automatic. 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 9.6 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 29 litres of fuel. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $16.80 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,300 a year for 15,000 miles.

    What to expect from the Q5

    The higher seat of a compact SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.

    Who the Q5 suits

    It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

    Try before you buy

    A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the Q5 first, and buy only if it fits your life. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.

    Money matters

    Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $168 at our price setting. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.80 in fuel.

    Choosing the right one

    Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
