The SQ5's classy design will be considered a touch too anonymous by some, while others will appreciate Audi's restraint. Being an S-badged Audi, the SQ5 gets sportier adornments like an S roof spoiler, unique front/rear fascias and side sills, and 20-inch alloy wheels. Full LED headlights and LED taillights are standard, as are a power tailgate, aluminum roof rails, and rear privacy glass. The Premium Plus trim adds a panoramic sunroof.
Measuring 183.9 inches in length, 65.3 inches in height, and 84.3 inches in width (including the side mirrors), the SQ5 isn't quite as long as a BMW X3, but it's just about as wide. The wheelbase stretches to 111.2 inches and, when loaded, the ground clearance works out to 8.2 inches. Curb weight is 4,321 pounds, a mere four lbs heavier than the comparable X3 M40i, which is also equipped with a six-cylinder engine and all-wheel drive.
