The 2018 Audi Q5 Technik for buyers

CarmaCars rents cars; this page helps you judge the 2018 Audi Q5 Technik before you buy one elsewhere. Thinking about the 2018 Audi Q5 Technik? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

Recalls and complaints

A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

Specs, explained

Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo; drive: all-wheel drive. 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.

Fuel use is rated 9.6 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 29 litres. In energy, every 100 km costs about $16.80 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

The Q5 in everyday use

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

Good uses for the Q5

Its all-wheel drive suits winter roads and trips to ski country. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

A longer test drive

Rent the Q5 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Rent the Q5 for a week and see how it fits your life. If the Q5 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.

Money matters

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

Which one to look for

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Compare the Technik with the other trims of the same year before you decide. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

Ruby and the Q5

Ruby is about 3,105 km from our Toronto location: the car is picked up in Toronto, or delivered on request. We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Ruby starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here.
