The new-gen BMW X1 is bigger and better than before, or is it?

Audi Q5 45 TFSI Petrol First Drive Review

By Ninad Ambre31 Jul 2018

This is the petrol version of the Q5 mid-sized luxury SUV, powered by a 248bhp 1,984cc four-cylinder petrol engine. The car was initially launched with a diesel variant only earlier this year, in January, which was also the first launch of the year for the manufacturer. Now, the carmaker has recently expanded its portfolio by adding this petrol trim as well. This one, too, comes in two trim levels - premium plus and technology.
