Great review! I have owned both an 18' premium plus and now a 19' Prestige with sport package. My personal car is faster in the quarter mile than this test car. I loved the 21" wheels on my 18' but chose the 20" with all seasons on my 19' to save weight, help avoid curb rash, and the added expense of snow tires. I tow my jet ski, throw my kayaks on the roof, and occasionally hit the track with mine. It is truly the definition of a SUV in my opinion. And while it is pricey, it is a lot of car too!

Yes it was my favorite German brand. Got mine and I love it. It's not without it's irritations though. The push button park is annoying, I keep pushing it into Reverse where every other Automatic would have the Park position. In fact my 2018 S3 has it just right, Push up to put into park. Also, once you place it in Reverse or drive, nothing happens! Oh you forgot to step on the brake! Still nothing happens! Oh, maybe I must push the button on the left side of the shifter before it engages! Still nothing happens! WTF! Oh! for some reason, the Parking Brake, with a stupid button instead of a handle, shows a red light! Does not tell you to push or pull to disengage. Knowing you did not engage the parking brake because you're on a level garage slab, it somehow engaged by itself! WTF! So you finally start moving in reverse, just a ridicules bunch of safety checks. Other than that, I love the heads up display, I love the seats, I love the room, I love the acceleration, I love the Bang und Oluffsen stereo, I love my Alcantara seat, very grippy, I love the 21" wheels, and on and on. I have a choice daily, between my 2018 SQ5 and my 2018 S3 with Stage II APR with 385hp, and sorry to say I prefer the SQ5. I must add that this is mostly due to the terrible potholes and bad roads here in North Eastern USA. My S3 is almost undrivable here. Lost 2 tires to pot holes already. Love Audi, will eventually go to Stage III with my S3 and a flash from APR as soon as they have figured out the new 2.9 L turbo motor used on the SQ5, S4, S5 and more. 400 Hp baby for my SQ5.

The 2018 SQ5 is all new and on a new platform. Within 12 months (when the 2019 model comes out) the virtual cockpit and MMI will be outdated/obsolete. This is just unacceptable for a brand like Audi. Audi should have been more transparent and I could have avoided purchasing the vehicle. Only 2019 or newer Audi vehicles will be able to view Google Earth after 2020.

Personally, I think the driver's seat in this, and all other SUVs for that matter have been getting a bit too narrow and short for people I know. While the center stack/systems have become ever increasingly wider! Stop that! Getting a bit cramped for everyone else that is a bit taller and/or larger than the people that drive these things on a daily basis! If anyone had the fortune to sit in a bench seated car and/or truck, they's be shocked at the level of comfort all autos used to have, but not anymore evidently.
