The figures, translated

Power comes from the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid, driving through a 7-speed automatic. It is a plug-in hybrid: it runs on electricity for a short distance, then on gas like a regular hybrid. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

Plan on about 26 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 8.8 L/100 km. On electricity alone it is rated for about 644 km before the gas engine takes over. A 300 km weekend costs about $40.92 in energy at our price setting.

Who it is for

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

What the Q5 is like

The higher seat of a compact SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic. It measures 4.68 m long by 1.89 m wide. It fits most condo and driveway spots.

The CarmaCars Protection Plan is one of three options for damage to the car; the others are OPCF 27 on your policy or a card with rental car benefits. A deposit is held before each rental; the amount is on the car's page. A quick licence and identity check happens before we confirm any booking.
