The Audi Q5 is the bestselling vehicle of the German brand and competes in one of the hottest segments: two-row compact luxury SUVs. Its rivals include the BMW X3 XE:BMW, Mercedes-Benz GLC, Acura ...

The Audi Q5 is fitted with diamond-quilted seats and the interior upholstery can be done with materials such as Kaskade or Dinamica fabric, the latter of which is partly made with recycled materials.

The BMW X3 is second with 12 points, and the Audi Q5 wins the off-road challenge with a total of 14 points! I guess Audi's AWD technology is still as amazing today as it ever has been!

Using the Q5 as its base, the SQ5 aims to tick all the right boxes for a performance-oriented clientele shopping among rivals that include the Alfa Romeo Stelvio, BMW X3 M40i and Mercedes-AMG GLC43.

The three crossovers we’ve singled out are the precise and trendy Audi Q5, the agile BMW X3, and the ever-posh Mercedes GLC-Class.

The 2021 Audi Q5 Sportback follows in the now-long tradition of offering an SUV with a boxy shape, and then a similar SUV with a sloping, coupe-like roofline, started by BMW back in 2008 with the X6.
