Audi Q5
The popular Audi Q5 gets a slight makeover for the 2021 model year. At the same time, the company has revised output and upgraded the infotainment system. The three available powertrains include a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder in 45 TFSI trim, a turbocharged V6 producing 349 horsepower in the sporty SQ5, and a plug-in hybrid system in the 55 TFSI model. That last one offers a zero-emission range of just over 30 kilometres.
