Most Helpful Review

Sportback after 7000 kms

It is a flashy car and you will get the best looks in this price range but mileage and features will be a tradeoff for the sporty looks. Not even a 360 camera at this price. City mileage sometimes drops to pathetic levels as low as 6.5 kmpl. The drive feel is good and acceleration and stability at high speeds are impressive.

Audi Q5 Review

1. Very good 2. Excellent 3. It has a very beautiful look and it is a very good performance. 4. Service on every 6 months and its maintenance is high in cost. 5. Very shiny and smooth
