Buying the 2018 Audi Q5 Progressiv

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2018 Audi Q5 Progressiv for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before you buy the 2018 Audi Q5 Progressiv, here is what the figures say and what to look at.

What to check on the Q5

Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA has 208 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, unknown or other and engine. NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.

Reading the spec sheet

The 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with all-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

By the EPA's combined rating of 9.6 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 29 litres. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $50.40 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,300 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Good uses for the Q5

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

Inside and out

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

Drive it on your own roads

A week with the Q5 answers more than any brochure. A test week in the Q5 tells you more than any review. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

Narrowing it down

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

Money matters

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$3,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.80 in fuel.
