2 Answers
The battery of the Audi Q5 is located near the spare tire in the trunk. The Audi Q5 is a mid-size SUV under the Audi brand. Taking the 2020 Audi Q5 as an example, it belongs to the mid-size SUV category with body dimensions of: length 4753mm, width 1893mm, height 1659mm, wheelbase 2908mm, fuel tank capacity 73L, and curb weight 1855kg. The 2020 Audi Q5 features a five-link independent front suspension and a five-link independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged engine delivering maximum horsepower of 190PS, maximum power of 140kW, and maximum torque of 320Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I remember driving several Audi Q5s, and their batteries are usually hidden in the trunk. You can find it by lifting the trunk floor cover or near the spare tire well. This is a thoughtful arrangement by Audi designers to balance the vehicle's weight and free up space. The first time I looked for it, it took me quite a while because I had to remove some covers. If the battery has issues, such as the car not starting, don’t try to fix it yourself to avoid accidental short circuits or injuries. It’s best to take it to an authorized dealership or a professional repair shop for inspection, especially in winter when batteries are prone to failure—preemptive maintenance can save a lot of hassle. In short, the location isn’t obvious, but handling it requires caution.
