Exterior - What the Auto Press Says

The 2009 Audi Q5 has a handsome, sporty look that sets it apart from its class.

• "To our eyes, the Q5 is a very handsome, even pretty, vehicle, with good proportions and exquisite detailing in items like the LED headlights and taillamps. Audi's modern, so-called shield grille dominates the front-end styling, and it makes for a very attractive face." -- Automobile Magazine
• "A resemblance to the larger Audi Q7 is evident, but the Q5 also looks like a Volkswagen Tiguan dressed up for a night on the town, though the Q5 is larger than the compact VW." -- Cars.com
• "The Q5 has a sporty appearance, with a wide stance, pronounced fender flares and available 20-inch wheels." -- MSN
• "When sizing up the Q5 against its main competition, most are closely matched in length, width and in distance between the front and rear wheels. But the Audi's smoother design, especially the front end with its visually dominating egg-crate grille, avoids the more squarish styling of the BMW, Acura and especially Land Rover competitors. However, it doesn't quite match the Infiniti EX35 on style points." -- Wheelbase Communications
