Default New desirable features in Q5

Does anybody know when Q5 will add HUD, 360 camera view, full LED lights, parking assistant ..... ?

I like Q5 TDI mechanical part but wish they will add more modern electronics.

2017 model year would be the earliest possibility. Keep your fingers crossed.

yeah, probably after A$4 debut since new Q5 will be based on A4. Too bad and too late for the market.

And an MMI that allows you to draw on the controller? Like the A6?

I could do without HUD and 360 Camera and parking assist. LED headlights would be nice.

I would like the same dashboard display as the new TT and, even though it is very unlikely to happen, the 4.0 V8 twin turbo engine tucked in! That would be a beastie!

I think I've read somewhere that the new A4 is supposed to have it, so if that's the case, it's possible the Q5 can get it too, at least as an option, part of some tech package.

New A4 does have it:



I'd expect the new Q5 to be similarly or better equipped.

The new Audi dashboards remind me of the BMW 428 gran coupe I was considering before I bought my Q5.

I hate the pop up screen enough that it may stop me from getting a 3rd Q5 if it has that.
