The other thing is that they are saying the new model may get a drop in power to like 320hp and that is starting to make sense to me. As they will introduce Macan next year and that being almost a copy of q5 with top engine in about 370hp, it does make sense for Audi to lower the q5 output to not affect Macan sales. Does that make any sense?
And yes, I am trying to talk myself into buying an sq5 like now. |
There is also the government mandate in the US that fuel economy has to improve every year. That will not help making those cars faster either.

Very unlikely Audi will drop hp. More likely Porsche will tune its top of the line trim to around 370 hp and price it accordingly. I'd feel more comfortable with SQ5. Not only less $, but all kinks have been worked out vs first year model that Macan will be

I'd pay attention to the next gen A4 that's coming out. I suspect there will be design and styling cues that will carry to the Q5.

the next generation A4 will be a great indication of where things are going.
also the next generation Q7 will be interesting to see as well: https://www.audiworld.com/forums/sho....php?t=2822420 |
