Why the Audi SQ5 stands out in the performance SUV class
Strong Performance and quattro Handling
At the heart of the SQ5 is a powerful engine that delivers both smooth cruising and exhilarating acceleration. Earlier models feature a 3.0-litre V6 petrol or bi-turbo diesel, while newer SQ5s come with a V6 TDI mild hybrid setup producing up to 347PS and 700Nm of torque.
Paired with Audi’s quattro all-wheel drive and an 8-speed tiptronic automatic transmission, the SQ5 offers confident grip, smooth gear changes and effortless overtaking power. It handles more like a performance saloon than a family SUV, while still being comfortable on the daily commute.
Luxury Interior and Everyday Practicality
Inside, the SQ5 feels unmistakably premium. High-quality materials, leather sports seats, brushed aluminium or carbon trim, and Audi’s signature virtual cockpit all create a driver-focused, luxury feel.
There’s plenty of room for passengers, and the 550-litre boot provides more than enough space for luggage, school runs or weekend gear. Fold down the rear seats and you’ve got SUV-level practicality without compromising on performance.
Technology and Features
The Audi SQ5 is packed with advanced tech and comfort features as standard or optional extras. Depending on the trim and year, you’ll find:
- Audi Virtual Cockpit digital driver display
- MMI Navigation Plus with touchscreen or rotary controller
- Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Bang & Olufsen or Audi sound system (on higher trims)
- Reversing camera and parking sensors
- Drive select with multiple driving modes
- Panoramic sunroof, power tailgate, and keyless entry (on select models)
- Heated front seats, ambient lighting, and tri-zone climate control
Everything is designed to make every journey easy, connected and comfortable.
Trim Levels and Styling
The Audi SQ5 is available exclusively as a 5-door SUV, with sleek lines, S-specific styling cues and a sporty presence on the road.
Typical trim highlights include:
- SQ5 TDI – 3.0-litre V6 diesel, quattro, 20-inch alloys, sports suspension
- SQ5 Vorsprung – Top-tier trim with panoramic roof, Matrix LED lights, adaptive air suspension, and a full suite of driver assistance features
- SQ5 Petrol (pre-2019) – Powerful V6 TFSI engine, sharp handling and classic S model character
With quad tailpipes, sculpted bumpers and aluminium mirror housings, the SQ5 always looks the part.

FAQs
Even if the car is in a zero road tax band, you still need to register it as taxed each year. The process is the same, but you won’t be charged anything. So you’ll need to go online or to the Post Office and 'tax' it (it will show a £0 fee). It’s important to do that so the car is officially recorded as taxed.
Our technicians are highly qualified and experienced. They are trained professionals who specialise in inspecting and preparing used cars to a high standard. Every car undergoes a rigorous inspection by our technicians, who have lots of experience in the motor trade. In short, you can trust that knowledgeable, certified mechanics have checked over and serviced your car before sale.
No, we don’t offer GAP insurance. You would need to arrange GAP insurance separately if you want it.
Yes. We we partner with HiQ to provide servicing, so you can absolutely book your car in with us for routine servicing. Just visit our Carsa Service website or call the service centre, and you can schedule a service appointment at a location that’s convenient for you. We’ll be happy to continue taking care of your car’s maintenance.
The V5C logbook is sent to you by the DVLA after purchase. It usually takes a few weeks; typically you can expect it within up to 6-12 weeks by mail.
We’ll provide the service history documents to you when you get the car. If it’s digital, we’ll give you a printout or email, and if the car has a service booklet, that will be in the car’s documents pack. Essentially, at the point of handover (collection or delivery), we’ll hand you any service records or tell you how to access them. So you’ll have the history in hand right away.
It depends on the car’s recommended schedule. Typically, cars should be serviced once a year or roughly every 10,000-12,000 miles (whichever comes first). If we’ve just serviced the car before delivery, your next service would likely be due in about a year from that service date. We’ll let you know the last service date and any upcoming due dates when you purchase the car.
If the car just had an MOT done as part of our prep, then your next MOT is due one year from that date. If it’s a nearly-new car under 3 years old that hasn’t needed an MOT yet, then its first MOT will be due when it turns 3 years old. We’ll let you know the MOT status and date when you buy the car, so you’ll know when to plan for the next one.
