Recently released teaser video shows that the mid-sized SUV will come with adjustable air suspension
In a bid to generate more ‘Qriosity’, Audi has released another teaser video of the new Q5 prior to its official unveiling at the Paris Motor Show. The short 15 second video reveals that the new Audi SUV will come with optional adjustable air suspension. This is the first time that the mid-sized luxury SUV will come with air suspension and it should definitely make it quite an able off-road machine. This electronic air suspension is likely to be the same one that is also offered on the larger Q7.
Building up to the big debut, Audi has been sharing teaser images of the new Q5 for a while now. The first teaser image to be released was of the fully LED taillights. It was then followed by a video of the LED headlights with Daytime Running Lamps and another one detailing the large boot.
Audi first introduced the Q5 in 2008 but has been showing its age off late. That however is about to change as the Q5 promises to have considerable improvements over the current-gen car. Based on the MLBevo platform that also underpins the A4 and the Q7, the Q5 shred weight of around 100 kilograms. In terms of cosmetics too this new Q5 will remain in line with the sharper design language that Audi now follows (Read: swollen hexagonal grille, virtual cockpit, new MMI interact, et al).
The 2017 Audi Q5 will likely hide the same engine set as the recently launched A4. Turbocharged four-cylinder petrol and diesel motors along with an option of a more powerful V6. The new Q7 will get the Audi Quattro system as standard but may also come with a front-wheel drive version. Although, details of the car are scattered currently, we shall know more when Audi presents the new 2017 Q5 to the press on 29 September.
