Does the Audi SQ5 have engine sound?

Audi SQ5 has engine sound. Audi SQ5 configuration: The new Audi SQ5 is equipped with a 10.1-inch touch LCD screen, which is responsive and provides timely feedback for various commands, especially the satellite navigation and CarPlay mobile phone interconnection/mapping are very practical, which can accurately plan the route and avoid unnecessary detours. The 12.3-inch LCD instrument panel has excellent visual effects, which can intuitively feedback various vehicle information and help drivers understand the vehicle condition in time. Audi SQ5 dimensions: The new Audi SQ5 is also very spacious, with a body length of 4689mm and a wheelbase of 2825mm. The view is not limited in the main driver's seat, and the middle position in the second row does not feel crowded. It is also equipped with sport-style leather seats, which are not only comfortable to the touch but also excellent in wrapping, providing an excellent driving and riding experience, and long-distance driving does not feel tired.

I've driven the Audi SQ5, and the exhaust note is absolutely awesome. It's powered by a 3.0T V6 engine, and you can hear the roar as soon as you step on the gas—especially in Sport mode, where the exhaust sound is much louder, almost like a race car, which is really thrilling. The sensation is even more pronounced when accelerating on the highway, as if the car is feeding energy back to you. For daily city driving, I can switch to Comfort mode, where the exhaust note becomes much quieter and more subdued, making for a calmer and more comfortable ride. Audi likely designed it with an active sound system that slightly enhances the engine note through the speakers, but it's not exaggerated or fake. Overall, it's more sporty than the regular Q5, making it a great fit for drivers who enjoy a spirited experience. If you're considering buying one, I recommend test-driving it to hear the actual sound and see if it matches your style. Also, remember to keep up with regular maintenance to ensure the exhaust stays clear.

As a performance car enthusiast, I find the SQ5's exhaust note quite distinctive. It's equipped with a V6 twin-turbocharged engine tuned for sportiness, so the exhaust sound is full-bodied during acceleration. Audi likely uses active sound technology, making the interior sound more impactful, but there's genuine exhaust noise too. On racetracks or mountain roads, switching to dynamic mode makes the exhaust note louder and more thrilling. In comparison, the standard Q5 is much quieter. The exhaust note isn't purely simulated but adjusts based on engine RPM changes. For daily driving, the sound is well-controlled and won't be too loud to disturb neighbors. If you frequently take long trips, this kind of exhaust note can actually help reduce driving fatigue. I recommend checking the exhaust system's maintenance status to avoid carbon buildup issues.

When driving the SQ5 in the city, I noticed the exhaust note is quite pronounced. During morning school runs, accelerating brings out a deep, thunderous growl that my child compares to thunder. Audi designed this car with sportiness in mind—the sound is naturally produced through the exhaust system, not artificially enhanced. In heavy traffic, switching to Comfort mode reduces the noise, which proves practical. The intensity of the exhaust note depends on driving style: it roars under hard acceleration but stays subdued when driven gently. Compared to regular SUVs, the SQ5 delivers more excitement, though it’s wise not to startle pedestrians in urban areas. During routine car washes, I check the exhaust tips—no major issues. The sound is quite engaging.
