The 2018 Audi Q5 Progressiv: before you buy

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2018 Audi Q5 Progressiv; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Buying the 2018 Audi Q5 Progressiv is a big decision; here is the information we have.

Before you sign for the Q5

NHTSA has 208 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, unknown or other and engine. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

What the specs mean

The powertrain here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with all-wheel drive and a 7-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.

Its combined rating is 9.6 L/100 km, which means roughly 29 litres for 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $168 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,300 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Practical details

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

Is it right for your trip?

It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage.

Drive it on your own roads

Rent the Q5 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Q5 answers the big questions.

Money matters

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.80 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $168 at our price setting.

Picking a year and a trim

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

Intersections and the Q5

We have no location in Intersections; CarmaCars rents from Toronto, about 572 km away. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Intersections.
