2024 Audi Q5 and SQ5 price and specs

For model yr 2024, the Audi Q5 – the four-ring brand’s second best-selling model in Australia – is dearer than before.

Prices were increased across the range – including the sportier SQ5 models – by between $1430 and $5900 from January 1, 2024.

“Resulting from ongoing disruptions to global markets, increases in the prices of raw materials and logistics mean that Audi Australia has seen a rise in prices across the model range,” an Audi Australia spokesperson told CarExpert.

The 40 TDI and 45 TFSI wagon variants are actually also available only in Sport trim.

“From MY24, we removed the non-sport variants of this automobile in an effort to streamline and refine the Q5 range,” said an organization spokesperson.

“The cars with sport trim far outsold the non-sport versions as customers could see the worth in moving to the game trim, and as such, we removed the non-sport vehicles for these two powertrains.”

As announced last yr, the Q5 range received standard adaptive cruise control, Turn Assist, Swerve Assist, Predictive Efficiency Assistant and Arkona White exterior paint for 2024.

The range now starts at $70,850 before on-road costs for the Audi Q5 35 TDI, which recently joined the line-up as a everlasting model, and extends to $126,600 before on-road costs for the flagship SQ5 TDI Sportback.

Globally, Audi has confirmed it can launch a brand new generation of Q5 within the second half of this yr.

Despite being at the tip of its lifecycle, it’s still a powerful seller. Along with being the brand’s second hottest vehicle in Australia last yr, behind only the Q3, amongst premium-brand mid-sized luxury SUVs it was outsold by only the Mercedes-Benz GLC (5430 sales) and Lexus NX (6875 sales).
