There really is no need to speculate.... If anyone is interested in the current options, build your own Q5 on audiusa.com ..... It's easy, it's free, and it will clear up the confusion....

while I agree with u, audi just updated their sote recently to show the high gloss black package. there's tons of people who have gotten misinformed about the high gloss black package

I know bc I had to tell the same story to customers at the dealerships

2014 3.0T and 3.0TDI had s line exterior packages standard.

to get the 3 spoke steering wheel, black headliner, adaptive suspension, black trim, titanium wheels, you had to get the "S Line Plus" package. the sports interior package is also required

this package has been referred to as "titanium package", "black optics package", "s line plus" package...and now..."high gloss black" package

for 2015 the black headliner moves to the "sport interior package"

the 2015 3.0T comes standard with s line exterior

the 2015 TDI does not come with s line exterior

2015 3.0T high gloss black package is $1500, and is analogous to 2014's s line plus package

2015 TDI "s line plus" is $2100 and is essentially the high gloss black package plus s line exterior

confusing as hell, for no reason

Idk if the high gloss black or s line plus will come with perforated leather steering wheel, I have heard both yes and no

I'll post pics in nov when I get mine

in the end, nice car and enjoy it!

2014 3.0T came standard with s-line exterior
2014 TDI it was an option was part of the s-line. IIRC

yes it is confusing, thats why i like BMW, much simpler and more straightforward. i do think the peelers look better than any other audi rim offered, except maybe the RS5 rim.

I went to see my 2015 Q TDI with sline and 20's when it arrived at the dealer this past Saturday. Our black optics package simply removes all chrome ($700 option).

Various equipment packages and what they include is a decision of the regional importer, not the decision of Audi Germany

Regional importer decide on the levels of equipment, is why there are differences around the world
