Audi SQ5 2025 | The DEFINITIVE Premium Mid-Sized SUV?

Audi's third generation SQ5 switches to petrol power. Jonathan Crouch drives it.

The third generation Audi SQ5 packs a 367PS petrol powerplant into the brand's rejuvenated take on what a premium mid-sized sporting SUV should be. It's not the fastest contender of its kind, but it might arguably be the most complete one - and it brings a welcome shot of sparkle to the Q5 line up.

Think of the original first and second generation versions of the Audi SQ5, if you ever do, and the memory will be of an uber-fast diesel-powered sporting SUV. In many ways, the perfect family Q car - an under-the-radar sporting mid-sized premium crossover we've always really liked.

So what of this third generation model, launched late in 2024? Well it's now petrol-powered, so that's a key difference, though Audi hopes its latest 48V mild hybrid tech will ease loyal SQ5 customers into that transition. Actually, the SQ5 was briefly petrol-powered once before, in 2018 when the second generation model was first launched (five years after the original). Now this Audi drinks from the green pump again - but there's also lots else to tell you.
