Introduction - Find the best Audi deals!
The 2022 Audi Q5 Sportback is yet another SUV “coupe” that offers less interior space and odd exterior proportions for what is likely a higher price tag.
Two versions will be available. The standard Q5 Sportback has a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine while the performance-tuned SQ5 Sportback has a turbocharged V-6 engine. Audi’s acclaimed Quattro all-wheel-drive system is standard.
Audi will build the new 2022 Q5 Sportback in Mexico, and it is slated to arrive in the company’s U.S. showrooms by the summer of 2021.
Exterior Features - Find the best Audi deals!
Given its sportier mission within Audi’s SUV lineup, the Q5 Sportback gets standard S-line exterior detailing. Body-color trim replaces the gray cladding on European versions of the SUV, seen in the accompanying photographs.
Standard LED headlights light the way, and Audi’s matrix-design LED technology is available. The SQ5 Sportback gets a set of new rear organic light-emitting diode (OLED) taillights. A hands-free power tailgate is standard.

Equipped with a dashboard that mirrors the standard Q5, the Q5 Sportback adds sport-bolstered front seats with perforated leather. Several colors and dashboard trim inlays are available.
Audi says the Q5 Sportback comes with Rear Bench Seat Plus and claims the seats slide forward and back and offer adjustable seatback angles.
Though Audi did not define cargo space dimensions, with the Q5 Sportback’s more rakish roofline, it won’t hold as much as of your stuff as the standard Q5.
