If you think that Audi’s SQ7 jumbo SUV is too large on pace and in size, the compact Q3 is too small, and the Q5 Sportback is just right, but needs more power, then worry no more. Meet the SQ5 Sportback, newly launched, and available for the first time on our little red dot. Since we have already covered the Q5 Sportback in a previous review, let’s focus on what makes this top-of-the-Q5-heap variant worthy of its S badge.

2022 AUDI SQ5 SPORTBACK 3.0 TFSI: ROARING INTO SINGAPORE

IN Audi, SQ5 Sportback, Singapore launch

Prices for this SQ5 start from $398k if you feel the need for pace AND space


But wafting comes at a cost (usually in excess of seven figures). To make it more accessible to the rich-but-not-as-rich businessmen, premium brands like Mercedes, BMW, Audi and Jaguar have made it their life-long aim to produce flagship models that can emulate that smooth road-yacht feel.

Magic Carpet Ride | Audi A8 Mild Hybrid 3.0 TFSI

For the longest time, the Mercedes S-Class and BMW 7 Series have topped the luxury barge segment's market share. Can Audi's new A8 steal some sales with this new party trick?


There are ways to tone down the full-on vibrancy though; instead of having it in full body colour, you can opt for the front grille housing to be in dark grey (which is my personal preference). Even the wheel arch trimmings can be finished in the same gloss grey.

Sleek Utility Vehicle | Audi Q8 3.0 TFSI

Not so sure about this huge mother of an SUV? Give it time, and this in-your-face Audi will grow on you too.


But I personally think its success doesn't come from sales, but how it is a canvas for Audi to paint its most beautiful picture, using the best of the brand\'s talents and medium- technology.

Tech Tower | Audi A8 L 3.0 TFSI

The A8 has always been and will likely continue to be Audi's epitome of 'vorsprung durch technik' (progress through technology).

Audi A6 3.0 TFSI quattro | All Summed Up

IN Audi, A6, TFSI, 3.0 TFSI, Quattro, Audi A6 3.0 TFSI quattro, 3.0-litre, Or-dee

The range-topping A6 is one of the most comprehensively-packaged large executive sedan money can buy for now


The SQ5 is powered by a 3.0-litre supercharged unit that pushes out 354 bhp and 450 Nm of torque. That might not be a lot in this day and age, but it is enough to take the SQ5 from standstill to 100km/h in a mere 5.3 seconds. That puts it way ahead of its competitors like the Cayenne and X5.

Speedy Utility Vehicle | Audi SQ5 3.0 TFSI

IN Audi, SQ5, TFSI, Audi Centre Singapore, Audi Singapore, Premium Automobiles

Audi seems to be on a roll, soup-ing up everything in their stable. The Q5 3.0 TFSI we drove earlier is already as fast as anyone would want an SUV to be. Is there really a need for an 'S?


The Audi A6 is one such car that has really impressed me. With a powertrain that is made up on a combination of the 211 bhp, 2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder mated with a 54 bhp electric motor, it pushes a total output of 245 bhp. Pretty decent for this sedan, and more than what you would need on a daily basis.

Clean Performance | Audi A6 Hybrid

IN Audi A6, Audi Singapore, Premium Automobiles, Hybrid

Audi's A6 Hybrid packs a combined power of 245 bhp and will save you some money too (if you drove it like it had 120 bhp)! But for the price, wouldn't a 3.0 TFSI make more sense?


Well that engine is, along with the rest of the lineup, being phased out to make way for Audi’s potent supercharged 3.0 TFSI. But rather than the performance-tuned 333 bhp you'll find in say the S4, the Q5 has 272 bhp and 400 Nm of torque. Paired with Audi’s 8-speed Tiptronic transmission, it is the same quick-shifting unit you'll find on top tier Audi sedans. We would have loved for it to be mated to the S-tronic though, because the Q5 is a rather nifty handling SUV, and with all that power, it makes for a rather sporty drive.

Luxury Hatch On Stilts | Audi Q5 3.0 TFSI

IN Audi Q5, Audi Singapore, Premium Automobiles, SUV

Audi bid's their naturally aspirated 3.2 V6 farewell, and the updated Q5 SUV impresses with a good drive thanks to a new 3-litre power-plant pushing 272 bhp and a hefty 400 Nm.


But if you don’t ever wish to be as predictable or mainstream as them, and want to stand out in the crowd, you can’t go wrong with the A7. It drives fast and sportily, can be comfortable when you need it and won’t look out of place particularly at societal events. If you have a chauffeur, he risks losing his job. Or if he’s lucky, merely demoted to a part-timer.

Just Right | Audi A7 Sportback 3.0 TFSI quattro

Audi has the perfect car if you want to steer clear of being labeled a typical towkay.
