The overseas new generation of Q5 test vehicles appeared in March, which means that the replacement of this medium-sized SUV under Audi has made substantial progress, and the new car is built on the same MLB Evo platform as the new Audi A4, with the blessing of the quattro four-wheel drive system. In terms of power, it is expected to be equipped with a 2.0T high-low power turbocharged engine, not excluding the addition of 48V light hybrid system and plug-in hybrid system, and the biggest highlight of the new car is the 8AT gearbox that everyone has been thinking about, although the dual-clutch transmission equipped with the current Audi Q5 has been greatly improved, but consumers are more or less skeptical about the dual clutch. The return of the 8AT gearbox is undoubtedly a great increase in the competitiveness of the Q5.
The new Audi Q5 will be the epitome of its internal combustion engine era
According to the official, the new generation of Q5 and the new A4, will be the last generation of pure fuel version of the model, in the next 5 years, the Audi brand will usher in a full electrification, remember the Audi Q5 domestic first generation model above the set of 8AT + central Tolson limited slip differential, has become the talk of many old drivers after dinner.
The overall design of the new car is biased towards the Q5 e-tron, and the electrification atmosphere is strong
From the rendering, we can see that if you have known about the new Audi A4 before, then the set of design languages above the Q5 you must not be unfamiliar, it seems that the design language of the new Audi fuel car is moving closer to the direction of the e-tron family, Audi on the road to electrification, the first design language.
The front face still continues to increase the size of the net, while the hexagonal net shape has become an oval-like layout, and the interior of the net adopts a diamond-shaped layout, which brings a more intense visual effect with the air intakes on the left and right sides. The headlights do not adopt a split design, but are shaped obliquely upwards.
The side of the body has changed greatly, with a progressive style waistline design, double-shaped wheel eyebrows, and a raised shape in front of the side and side rear, echoing the wheel eyebrows, equipped with multi-spoke blackened wheels. In accordance with the "fine tradition" of the Audi Q5, the basic operation of localization and lengthening will still be carried out. The tail slightly hatchback modeling design is in line with the sporty style of the whole vehicle, there is also a tail wing decoration above, the tail light group uses the popular through-type tail light, similar to the A7L god, the lower exhaust pipe bilateral single out layout plus spoiler design, the combat atmosphere is strong, but whether it is decoration or true exhaust, it remains to be confirmed.
The interior is likely to move closer to Audi's e-tron family design, borrowing a lot from the Q5e-tron design. The suspension central control screen design is replaced by the embedded central control screen design, the instrument panel is biased towards the driver, and the gear lever is replaced by a design style similar to "little brother" A3, "big brother" 911, although it does not use the "three screens", but it is also enough to make people shine, making people full of driving desire.
No matter how powerful the product force can not withstand the ravages of the years, Audi is the time to inject fresh blood into the Q5
Spacious space, stable performance, the appearance of men and women and children, and the blessing of four circles make the Audi Q5 an "evergreen tree" in the luxury medium-sized SUV, coupled with its terminal offers are not small, and there is no lack of followers in the luxury medium-sized SUV. However, this generation of models has been around for a while since its debut, and this set of design languages from 5 or 6 years ago does have some aesthetic fatigue for today's consumers, and it is a bit difficult to cope with the two opponents in the BBA camp.
From the sales volume in March, we can see that the Audi Q5L sales are 9071 vehicles, compared with the 12748 vehicles of Mercedes-Benz GLC, there is still a big gap, so the replacement is inevitable.
