Hi all,
My lease car expires in May 2023 so thought I'd start the process early and take a look. Went to an Audi dealership at the weekend and impressed with the Q5. Unsure what spec to go for so hoping there are others out there with similar specs I'm looking at to advise on mainly practicality and fuel consumption.

I do daily school runs probably 10 miles per day and longer distances at the weekends probably between 50 - 100+ as family are a way away. I initially looked at the Q5 45, but tempted by the 50 TFSI e as the electric consumption would be fine for my day to day and the petrol would work well for my weekend travels.

Does anyone have actual experience with this car using the electric for local journeys? Also are there any options you have or wish you had added?

Thanks!

Mate of mines got a 2 year old plug in one, he says the electric range is ste but I don’t know if the newer ones are better. I think you lose some of the boot too.

I’ve got a 40tdi, the economy isn’t good around town, high 20s / low 30s but it’ll do 50+ mpg on a motorway run. Over the 11k miles I’ve had it it’s averaged 45mpg.

This was from a few weeks ago:

Just to add, mines got the comfort and sound pack which at first I didn’t really want but I’m glad it has. It includes keyless entry, all round cameras and B&O stereo.
