Comparing the Power Under the Hood

With 228 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, the 2025 Audi Q3’s turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine delivers responsive performance, ideal for both weekend getaways and daily city commutes. The 2025 Audi Q5, on the other hand, offers a plug-in hybrid model among its versatile powertrain options. With a range of 201 to 362 horsepower and 236 to 369 lb-ft of torque, it’s a strong contender for drivers who need more power for highway cruising or increased towing capacity.

Space That Adjusts to Your Lifestyle

In comparison, the Q5 enhances that utility by offering a more spacious layout with 757 to 1,710 litres of cargo space, making it a smart option for families, pet owners, or those who frequently travel with more luggage.

Fuel Efficiency That Makes Sense

The Audi Q3 returns 11.5 L/100km in the city and 8.5 L/100km on the highway, giving drivers a solid balance between power and fuel economy. Meanwhile, the Q5 offers a broader range of efficiency depending on the trim you choose. The plug-in hybrid model achieves as low as 4.1 L/100km, making it especially attractive for those looking to reduce their fuel stops or environmental footprint without compromising on luxury or drive quality.

Advanced Technology Inside and Out

The Q3 comes with a 10.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, and intuitive driver assist features that elevate the daily driving experience. If you're after more premium features, the Q5 steps it up with an 11.9-inch display, an available Bang & Olufsen 3D sound system, adaptive cruise control, and even a 360-degree camera system for added confidence when navigating tight parking spots.

Both SUVs are backed by Audi’s commitment to safety. The Q3 features six airbags, lane departure warning, and a 5-star side impact rating, ensuring you’re well protected on the road.
