Auto loans: the 2018 Audi Q5 Technik

No 2018 Audi Q5 Technik is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. The 2018 Audi Q5 Technik for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

Before you sign for the Q5

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 208 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, unknown or other and engine; have those parts checked.

The numbers in plain words

It is powered by the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

Expect about 29 litres for every 300 km, going by its 9.6 L/100 km combined rating. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $16.80. The EPA estimates US$3,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

How big it is

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

Best uses

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. Its all-wheel drive suits winter roads and trips to ski country.

Drive it on your own roads

Rent the Q5 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. A test week in the Q5 tells you more than any review.

The cost of driving it

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. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $168 at our price setting.

Which one to look for

If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
