Drive & Handling
The Q5 derives its power from a 2.0-liter turbocharged 45 TFSI® direct-injection engine. TFSI stands for "Turbocharged Fuel Stratified Injection," a pressure-driven fuel injection method derived from LeMans racecar technology. The result in the Q5 is impressive thrust, greater fuel efficiency, and reduced emissions. That increased power takes the shape of 248 hp, 273 lb-ft of torque, and a 0 to 60 acceleration time of 5.9 seconds. For the more speed-oriented driver, the 2.0-liter turbocharged 55 TFSI engine is paired with a 14.1 kWh battery to produce up to 362 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque. That translates to a 0 to 60 mph time of just 5.0 seconds.

This intelligent system can send power to the wheels that need it most, to enhance control and stability. Audi drive select gives drivers ultimate control but allowing them to choose between five different drive modes that alter the way the transmission and throttle respond to driver inputs.
