This page puts the 2023 Audi Q5 Progressiv in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

Recalls and complaints

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

What the specs mean

It runs the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid, with all-wheel drive. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. 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 9.3 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 28 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $14.42 to drive 100 km. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,300 a year for 15,000 miles.

How big it is

It offers the space of an SUV with the height that makes loading easy.

Who rents the Q5

It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Rent it for a week first

Drive the Q5 on your commute before you commit to it. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Q5 answers the big questions. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

Money matters

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $144.20 at our price setting. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $14.42 in fuel.

Choosing the right one

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
