The 2017 Audi Q5 is available for sale with a base price tag of MSRP $40,900. New-for-2017 is a 3-spoke multi-function steering wheel with paddle shifters, Audi Drive Select, and Adaptive Cruise Control for the Prestige trim while the Premium Plus trim adds 19-inch wheels. The 2017 Q5 gets two engine options which include a 220-hp turbo-4 engine with the 2.0T Premium trim and a 272-hp supercharged V6 engine in the 3.0T trim. The latter engine is all about power and can sprint from 0-60 MPH in 6.5 seconds.
2017 Audi Q5 For Sale-
The 2017 Audi Q5 is offered in three trims, namely Premium, Premium Plus, and Prestige with a starting Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $40,900, with the top end 3.0T Prestige trim priced at $53,200. Now the best trim of the lineup is definitely the mid-tier Premium Plus trim, priced at an MSRP of $43,150. Nevertheless, we would recommend the 272 hp supercharged V6 powered 3.0T Premium Plus trim, as it builds upon the Premium variant features, now including the 19-inch wheels, S line exterior packaging, heated front seats, and much more.
2017 Audi Q5 Buying Advice-
While the 2017 Q5 is certainly the best model in the first generation, with it being competitively priced with respect to the feature it houses, we would still recommend you go for an older 2015 Audi Q5 model, as for the price of $39,300, it still differentiates itself from the 2017 MY by almost $1600, with no major change on the features front.

Then there is also the case of the more powerful SQ5 variant, which gets a 354 hp supercharged V6. But, neither of these engines is fuel-efficient. The Q5's towing capacity is rated at 4,400 pounds, and is one of the best in its segment. The interior design of the Q5 is dated and lacks modern technological features but is spacious and ergonomic. However, its cargo capacity and reliability ratings are below average compared to its class rivals. Speaking of rivals, the 2017 Q5 goes head-to-head against the BMW X3, the Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class, and the Volvo XC60.
