2014 Audi SQ5 Test Drive Video Review - 354 Horsepower Crossover SUV

The 2014 Audi SQ5 is one of the only crossovers on the market that push fun to the top of the list. The S-Line is a high-performance version of the regular Q5 mid-sized luxury crossover. On the outside of the vehicle, the styling is the same for the most part. The only additions that give away the secret are the SQ5 badges, 21-inch wheels, a dual exhaust, and silver satin mirrors. The base price of an Audi SQ5 is $51,900.

Under the hood is a Supercharged 3.0 liter V-6 engine that makes 354 horsepower and 360 lb-ft. of torque. The transmission is an 8-Speed automatic. The fuel economy is 16 MPG in the city and 23 MPG on the highway. On the inside there is a level of luxury you would expect from Audi. The seats are comfortable with SQ5 stitching, the Display is crisp, the MMI unit works great. The steering wheel is flat bottom which is reserved for sports car.

The driving part of the SQ5 is important. Anytime Audi wears an "S" in its badge means the model is a sporty model. You normally would not associate a crossover as being sporty. But the 2014 Audi SQ5 might look subtle but it can sure perform on the streets. Besides the 350 HP engine, the SQ5 has big wheels and big brakes. You can adjust the modes to customize the best driving choices you are fond of. The SQ5 is very talented, fun to drive, luxurious, and fast. People might have a hard time paying a high price for this crossover, but the competitors offer nowhere near the level of refinement and luxury the SQ5 provide.
