Audi SQ5 Reviews & Comparisons
Audi SQ5 Reviews

The SQ5 ticks many, many boxes. The diesel engine provides quick but also effortless performance along with sensible fuel economy, and sounds pretty tasty, too. The handling is beautifully judged -if not quite as entertaining as that of the Porsche Macan - while still giving you a comfortable ride. And it's a practical large SUV for those with a family.

Buying a family car doesn't have to feel like giving up, according to the refreshed 2021 Audi SQ5. The updated compact luxury SUV seems to come with an insistence that a practical family choice can still be fun and it attempts to prove that with an S badge, four tailpipes, and suspension upgrades.

As a facelift, we'd call the 2021 SQ5 a success as it looks more dramatic, drives better, and delivers more performance. However, the Q5 underpinnings still lack the sporty character found in some of the SQ5's rivals, keeping it from being our favorite. Both the BMW X3 M40i and Mercedes-AMG GLC43 will outperform it and deliver more fun in the process. However, the Audi excels in comfort, so perhaps it can carve out a niche with buyers that want speed without a jarring ride.

On the road, however, the SQ5 feels closer to a hot hatch than a hot SUV. The low body roll and great traction make handling on tight corners a breeze. On a trip to Latigo Canyon in Malibu, which is a serpentine road that snakes up the mountain range, the SQ5 didn't hesitate once despite the steep climbs and altitude.

This week we wanted to see what all the fuss was about when it comes to performance SUVs, so we put BMW's X4 M40i and Audi's SQ5 to the test on the road. Which of the German giants deserves the pedestal, or are they more closely matched than one can expect? Does Quattro matc...

Always a pleasure. I've dealt with diff advisors for my cars' service- Taylor being my favorite! They always go above and beyond to not only meet, but surpass your expectations! As far as salesmen, Jack is your go to! He was detailed, honest and not pushy! Between Ontario Audi and Penske Audi, I'd take the drive any day to Penske!

I have been to Penske Audi West Covina twice since purchasing my Audi A6 from Riverside Audi. On both occasions I was assisted by Service Advisor Chris Martin. The 1st time I had a question and the 2nd time it was for my 5,000 mile service. I have had three BMW's over the past 10 years but I have never been help more than what I received from Chris and the Penske Audi West Covina Dealership. Helpful, knowledgeable, and without a doubt, exceeded my wishes for reliable assistance. West Covina will be where I continue going to receive service and help in the future!!Thomas, Thank you so much for this excellent review! We are so delighted to hear that Chris was so helpful on both of your visits to our dealership. We will be sure to share this with him and the rest of the team and let them know that their hard work is appreciated. We are looking forward to your next visit! Happy Holidays, Penske Audi West Covina

Brittny in the service department provided FIRST class customer service. I had my windshield replaced by another shop and the job was not done properly. I was irritated with the delay and extra costs that were involved with having to take my vehicle in for the second time. Brittny calmingly assured me that she would ensure that the job was done correctly and within my tight time frame. She delivered on both accounts! Always maintaining a professional manner even when I was not. After working with Brittny, WC Audi will be handling all my maintenance needs. Thank you Brittny! Mike E
