The cargo capacity has remained the same and depending on the location of the rear seats, the trunk can swallow between 550 to 1,550 liters (19.4 to 54.7 cubic feet). There’s not much to say about the styling as it has been essentially carried over from the regular Q5 sold all over the world, with the obvious exception of the longer rear doors highlighting the stretch in the wheelbase.

The engine is hooked up exclusively to a seven-speed S tronic gearbox responsible of delivering power to the Quattro all-wheel-drive system.
