2021 Audi Q5 specs

Audi is no stranger to well-built luxury SUVs and the 2021 Audi Q5 is no exception. On the outside, you’re instantly greeted by its large silver grille with the iconic four-ring Audi emblem. Step inside and you’re in for a treat: the cabin is spacious enough to get in and out of—but you’ll most likely stay put on its luxurious leather seats.
Now let’s get into the nitty-gritty and see what the Q5 has to offer. Take a look at the tables below.

How to interpret car specs

If you’re new to the world of car ownership, the tables above probably look like a bunch of gibberish. No worries—below, we explain the terms in simple language so that you can make the right decision about the 2021 Audi Q5. 
  • Base curb weight: The total weight of the vehicle, including its standard equipment and the tank on full. 
  • Dimensions: The measurements of the vehicle’s interior and exterior elements. To make the best decision, compare the Q5’s dimensions with a car you’re familiar with—maybe that’s your childhood car or a dream car of yours!
  • Drivetrain: Front-wheel drive is the most common drivetrain. Some will have a rear-wheel drive (A+ for handling) or all-wheel drive (perfect for off-roading). 
  • Engine displacement
    : This refers to the volume the cylinders of your engine take up, in liters. It’s not the same as engine oil capacity!
  • Ground clearance: The distance between your vehicle’s undercarriage and the ground, which is important to know if you’re looking for an off-road vehicle.
  • Horsepower: This is how powerful your engine is. One horsepower refers to the power needed to raise 500 pounds by one foot in a single second.
  • Torque: This number refers to your engine’s rotational power. The higher the torque (measured in lb-ft), the faster your car can accelerate from the jump. 
  • Turning diameter: This is the amount of space you need to make a safe turn. Turn smaller than the diameter and you’ll be damaging your exterior!
