Audi Q5 TFSI e Sportback Review
The sportier, sleeker version of Audi's mid-sized SUV, sacrifices a small amount of practicality in favour of plenty of style.
If you like the plug-in hybrid Audi Q5 TFSI e SUV, but crave a more coupe-like shape to the exterior, this ‘Sportback’ model is the lease car for you.
Looking sleeker than the regular Q5 SUV, the Sportback enjoys the same fuel-efficient powertrain as the Q5 TFSI e SUV.
Despite the sloping rear, there’s also still plenty of room for passengers in the Sportback variant, and it only sacrifices 10 litres of luggage space compared with the SUV.
The Q5 TFSI e Sportback is underpinned by Audi’s ‘50 TFSI e quattro S tronic’ powertrain. It generates power of 299 PS, 450 Nm of torque, and is capable of whisking you from 0-62mph in just 6.1 seconds.

And because it’s a plug-in hybrid, you also enjoy great fuel efficiency besides the performance. You can expect the Q5 TFSI e Sportback to return up to 188 mpg while emitting just 36 g/km of CO2.
The 17.9 kWh battery allows you to travel for up to 37 miles using electricity alone while also proving simple to recharge. Using a standard 7 kW home wall box, you’ll replenish the battery in around 2 hours. Not too sure how EV charging works? We've got a guide to talk you through charging an electric car.
Entry level ‘Sport’ models come loaded with equipment such as 18 inch alloys, a 10.1 inch infotainment touchscreen, Audi’s ‘Virtual Cockpit’ and the German firm’s state-of-the-art ‘Pre sense City’ system, which uses cameras to detect dangers and can even apply the brakes for you if necessary.
Top-of-the-range ‘Vorsprung’ models add extras such as adaptive air suspension, a panoramic sunroof, radar-based automatic distance regulation, and a fully-uprated interior.
Rivals to the Audi Q5 Sportback include the BMW X4, Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe, and the Jaguar F-Pace.
