The 2015 Product Information Book shows S Line as standard on the 3.0 and optional on the TDI (page 10). Steve

We have a 3.0 with the ADS and we definitely notice the difference when changing modes. We leave the suspension in comfort and it provides for a smooth ride without too much roll in the corners. With ADS in dynamic, the Q5 sticks to the road without being too harsh. We drove a 2.0 with 19's and I think the 3.0 rides better with the 20's and ADS. There was not a SQ5 available at the time we ordered ours.

As suggested, test drive them all to see what meets your needs.

Simple questions:

Will you miss the SQ5 having a 3.0T ?

or

Will you find the SQ5 an overkill vs 3.0T ?

If any one else can 100% confirm there is a S Line package (one that includes the flat bottom wheel, drive select, etc) like '14 I would like to know.

Default SQ5 FTW !!!

I decide to go with the SQ5 since it is all around a more aggressive option. In fact, I just got word that my car has reached the port !!! It has been hard waiting since Thanksgiving for this bad boy to arrive.

If you are looking for great gas mileage then the TDI is a no brainer.

So I guess it depends on what is more important to you.....style or economy.
