Audi SQ5 2021
Carsguide Senior Journalist Laura Berry had this to say at the time: The SQ5 is the best version of a hugely popular SUV, and the turbo-diesel V6 provides a thunderously enjoyable and easy driving experience. The update has brought little in the way of new looks, and practicality remains an area where the SQ5 could be improved, but it’s hard not to appreciate this excellent SUV.    Â

-
Can I put an Amarok wheel on a Q5?
I understand what you're trying to do, and the Amarok wheel might well fit, but I wouldn't recommend it. The Amarok wheels are 16 x 6.5-inch, the Q5's are 17 x 8-inch. Go to an Audi dealer, or a specialist mechanic and try to find a more suitable steel wheel.

Definitely go for the Volvo. Apart from the safety gear, it's well built, well equipped and drives well.

Porsche Macan vs Audi SQ5
The SQ5 has more punch, that's for sure, but I believe the Macan is a better car and it gets The Tick from me.

Audi SQ5 2021 Accessories
The SQ5 has an extensive list of standard features, which was expanded with an extra $10,000 worth of value last year.
The seats are covered with Nappa leather with diamond stitching while synthetic leather extends to the centre console and door armrests, sports padding up front with seat heaters, plus ambient lighting with choice of 30 colours and electric steering column adjustment.
The sound system is by Bang & Olufsen, which spreads 755W across a total of 19 speakers, while the 8.3-inch MMI multimedia system has now been outdated by the scroll-wheel free and bigger-screened units in more recent Audis and therefore Apple CarPlay still requires a cord like Android Auto. There’s a clever adjustable wireless phone charger located in the centre console.
The driver is informed by the Audi Virtual Cockpit digital instruments and a head-up display.
Other features include tinted windows with acoustic glazing, a panoramic glass sunroof, roof rails that detect when the included crossmembers are fitted and adust the stability control to compensate for a roof load, and metallic paint.
