Verdict
The Q5 keeps the brief clean: a new-generation Audi compact executive SUV, five seats, petrol power and a dual-clutch automatic. Its RM352,900 price is higher than the BMW X3 from RM320,800, Mercedes-Benz GLC from RM329,888 and Volvo XC60 from RM333,888, so the badge and latest-generation body are not coming cheaply. Buy it for the Audi shape and spec, not because it undercuts the obvious rivals.
