2 Audi Q5 FCEV (2009)

The Audi Q5 FCEV (2009) is a fuel cell-based concept car that was presented on October 19, 2009, at the CEP in Berlin. It is equipped with an 85 Kw PEMFC, a 22 Kw lithium-ion battery and a 230 Nm asynchronous motor.

3 Audi Q5 Hybrid

Audi initially said it would offer the Q5 hybrid as a launch model, but it was later reported that Audi suspended the plan due to unsatisfactory crash test results for nickel-metal hydride batteries. In 2009, Audi announced that it would resume development of the Q5 hybrid. It included a 266 V, 1.3 kWh battery pack. The Q5 has an all-electric range of about 3 km (2 mi) and an all-electric top speed of 100 km/h (62 mph).

2 Second generation

A long-wheelbase version was unveiled at the Beijing Auto Show, with 88 mm (3.5 in) added to the car, providing 23 percent more legroom.

2 Markets

Asia

The second generation Q5 will be the first to be sold in Bangladesh.

The Q5 was launched in Thailand in August 2017, where a single S-line powered by a 2.0 TFSI (45 TFSI) engine and a 2.0 TDI (40 TDI) engine with a Quattro all-wheel drive system is available.

The Q5 was launched in Malaysia in March 2019, where only one Sport trim line powered by a 2.0 TFSI engine and Quattro all-wheel drive system is available.

Fast forward to August 2021, the Q5 facelifted was launched in Malaysia with the sportier S Line trim. It comes with a 2.0 TFSI engine with mild hybrid technology, Quattro all-wheel drive and S Tronic dual-clutch transmission. Shortly after, the Q5 Sportback also made its local debut in Malaysia.

North America

The second generation Q5 was launched in North America in 2018. Production was moved from Germany to the new Audi México, S.A. de C.V. plant in San José Chiapa, Puebla, México. The Q5 was launched with a 2.0 TFSI gasoline engine. Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive system is standard, but it uses "Quattro with Ultra technology." According to Audi, Ultra technology improves efficiency by decoupling the driveshaft from the rear wheels when all-wheel drive is not needed. Essentially, the vehicle becomes front-wheel drive at cruising speeds or in other driving situations where the vehicle's computers determine that all-wheel drive is not needed. Audi says the system is able to re-engage power to the rear wheels within milliseconds after the system detects or predicts wheel spin or the driver accelerates aggressively.

Unlike the previous generation Q5 8R, the U.S. vehicles are only offered with the 2.0T TFSI I-4 engine. The 2.0T '45 TFSI' model offers similar acceleration to the 3.0 TFSI supercharged V6 of the previous generation (Q5 8R face-lifted, 2013-2017) while using less fuel and reducing emissions. No TDI version will be offered in North America due to the fallout from the diesel emissions scandal. Bucking the industry trend away from dual-clutch transmissions to the latest generation of conventional torque-converter automatic transmissions, Audi has actually replaced the previous generation ZF 8HP 8-speed automatic transmission with its own 7-speed S-Tronic dual-clutch transmission.

The SQ5 is offered as a performance variant of the Q5. In North American form, it uses a 3.0-liter DOHC, direct-injection, 90-degree Miller-cycle V6 with a single, single-scroll turbocharger. The engine, dubbed EA839, is a significantly reworked version of the previous-generation supercharged V6 (EA837) that powered the first-generation Q5 3.0T and SQ5. Turbocharged engine output remains at 354 hp, but torque rises to 369 lb-ft at just 1,370 rpm. Unlike the less powerful Q5 '45 TFSI' 2.0T, Audi retained the ZF 8HP transmission for the SQ5. Unlike the Q5, the SQ5 uses the quattro VI permanent rear-wheel-drive system.
