Under the hood hides a three-liter Audi SQ5 diesel engine with dual charging, which gives 313 hp (Prior to this was the most powerful Q5 270 hp).

Of course, SQ5 has permanent four-wheel drive, plus there is an active rear differential. And the machine is different from the usual Q5 reduced ground clearance (-30 mm), 20-inch wheels (and if you want you can take and 21-inch), sport seats, nice door sills, a more aggressive aerodynamic bodywork.
As a result, it is SQ5 currently receives the title of the fastest serial compact crossover. After all, this machine is able to accelerate 0-100 km / h in 5.1 s (maximum speed on the German tradition is limited to 250 km / h). For comparison, BMW X3 with 306-horsepower gasoline engine gains "hundreds" of 5.7. There are, of course, even Porsche Cayenne Turbo, but this model is already playing in another league.
