The Q5 is a fine choice if you're after a big, posh SUV and don't need seven seats. It's smarter inside than a BMW X3 and better to drive than a XC60. Go for entry-level Sport trim if you want the most comfortable ride.
Likely to be of particular appeal among company car drivers, the 295bhp 50 TFSI e is just as quick as the 45 TFSI but adds a useful electric-only driving range of up to 37 miles (36 miles in Vorsprung trim).
