With a starting MSRP of $45,400, the Q5 offers a 2.0L I4 Turbo engine generating 268 hp and 236 lb-ft of torque.
Equipped with standard all-wheel drive (AWD), the Q5 provides enhanced traction and stability. Its EPA-rated fuel economy of 23 MPG in the city and 29 MPG on the highway makes it an efficient option.
Inside, the Audi Q5 features standard genuine leather seats. Cargo capacities are 25.9 cubic feet (all seats in place) and 54.1 cubic feet (with the second row folded). Standard safety features include automatic emergency braking and blind spot monitoring.
Starting at $60,500, the Q7 has four-and-six-cylinder engine options. The 2.0L four-cylinder engine generates up to 261 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque. The 3.0L V6 delivers up to 335 hp.
Like the Q5, the Q7 features standard AWD. But it has a slightly lower fuel economy rating of 20 MPG in the city and 26 MPG on the highway.
The Q7 accommodates up to seven passengers with a spacious third row, making it ideal for families. Its cargo capacity stands at 14.2 cubic feet with all seats in place and 69.6 cubic feet when the second row is folded.
Advanced technology features include standard navigation, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, and a comprehensive suite of safety features.
The Q5 appeals to buyers seeking a compact, stylish, and efficient vehicle. Off-brand competitors include the BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC.
The Q5 has garnered positive reviews for its balance of performance and comfort. It has a 4.2 out of 5 TrueCar ownership rating.
Conversely, the Q7 targets families and individuals needing more space. The Q7 competes with larger off-brand SUVs like the BMW X5 and Volvo XC90.
The Q7 also has a 4.2 TrueCar ownership rating.
The Q5's turbocharged four-cylinder engine can produce 268 hp and go from 0-60 in 5.7 seconds. There is also a plug-in hybrid variant, the Q5 e, that can deliver 362 HP and can go from 0-60 mph in five seconds. The Q5 e's ranges are 23 miles (all-electric) and 390 miles (PHEV).
The Q7's four-cylinder engine earns up to 261 HP and its V6 delivers 335 HP. The 2024 Q7 V6 can go from 0-60 in 5.5 seconds.
The Q7 provides a stable ride, especially at higher speeds. Its optional air suspension adapts to different driving conditions.
Both models feature quiet cabins that contribute to a serene driving experience. However, the Q7's size may impact maneuverability in tight spaces. As a result, the Q5 is a better choice for city dwellers.
The Q7's optional third row provides seating for up to seven passengers. In the front row, passengers get 39.9 inches of legroom. There is 38.8 inches of headroom in the second row and 35.9 inches in the third.
The Q7's legroom dimensions are 41.7 inches (front), 38.8 inches (second), and 29.2 inches (third).
While the Q7's third row adds seating capacity, it reduces cargo space to 14.2 cubic feet. Adults of above-average height, and even average, will struggle to stay comfortable on extended trips.
Q5 standard features include Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. In-Car WiFi is optional.
New for 2025, the Q5 has a 14.5-inch center touchscreen. There is also an 11.9-inch driver display and an optional 10.9-inch screen for front passengers.
The Q7 expands on this with standard navigation and In-Car WiFi. But its touchscreens are smaller: 10.1-inch for infotainment and 8.6-inch for climate controls.
The Q7 offers additional options like rear cross-traffic alert, brake assist, and a top-view camera system. The Q5 and Q7 received five-star (out of 5) crash test ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The Q7 is a midsize SUV offering more space, power, and advanced safety features. It's more suitable for larger families or those needing additional seating capacity.
