What are the differences between Audi Q5 and Q7?
2 Answers
Audi Q5 and Audi Q7 differences: different body sizes, different wheelbases, different top speeds, and different body weights. Audi Q7 has stronger performance: The Q7 is equipped with a 4.2-liter V8 fuel direct injection (FSI) engine, with a maximum power of 350bhp, capable of delivering a maximum torque of 440Nm at 3500rpm. The 4163cc V8 engine is the same as the one in Audi's high-performance sports car RS4, both being top performers in their category. Advantages of the Audi Q5: Compared to the Audi Q7, the Q5's advantage is its relatively lower price. The Audi Q5 is a dynamic and versatile SUV. With its excellent performance and technological advantages, the Michelin Pilot Preceda PP2 high-performance sports tires have recently become the original equipment tires for the premium midsize SUV Audi Q5.
I usually drive SUVs and often pay attention to the Audi series. To be honest, the most obvious differences between the Q5 and Q7 are in size and space. The Q7 is a full-size SUV, much larger in dimensions, with three rows of seats that can accommodate seven people, making it particularly suitable for big families or long trips. The Q5, on the other hand, is a midsize SUV with only two rows of seats, better suited for small families or urban commuting. In terms of power, the Q7 generally comes with a stronger engine, such as a 3.0L V6, offering a very stable ride and strong acceleration. The Q5 mostly features a 2.0L four-cylinder engine, which is more fuel-efficient but has less horsepower. There’s also a significant price difference—the Q5 starts at around 400,000 RMB, while the Q7 may start at 700,000 RMB, a considerable jump. The Q7’s interior is more luxurious, with premium audio and massage seats, whereas the Q5 is more basic. In summary, if you frequently travel with elderly parents or children, the Q7’s comfortable space is worth the investment; for singles or couples, the Q5 is more flexible, cost-effective, and easier to park. Also, daily maintenance for the Q7 comes with more expensive spare parts, which is another factor to consider.
