Overview
The 2013 Audi Q5 Hybrid SUV fares well in the compact SUV segment. Adding $15,000 to the price of the standard gasoline variant, the Q5 Hybrid hybrid carries a base price of MSRP $51,300 and is offered in a single trim. The engine on service here is a familiar 2.0L turbocharged inline-4 engine supported by a 40 kWh electric motor. Mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission, it makes 245 horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque. The combined fuel economy improves from 23 MPG on the standard gasoline variant to 26 MPG on the hybrid variant, making the increase in sticker price worth it. Performance of the Q5 Hybrid hybrid also improves here, with the car accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 6.8 seconds. Audi offers the same 11 colors for the Q5 Hybrid hybrid. The Q5 Hybrid competes only against the Lexus RX 450h SUV.
