2017 Audi Q5 Performance and Engine

Turbocharged Power With Everyday Refinement

Under the hood sits Audi's renowned 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, producing 252 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. Paired with an 8-speed Tiptronic Sport automatic transmission, acceleration is smooth and confident whether you're merging onto the 710 Freeway or cruising through the hills above Pasadena. The sport-tuned transmission allows paddle-shifter control for drivers who want a more engaged feel without sacrificing daily comfort.
 

Audi Quattro AWD System

This Q5 is equipped with Audi's legendary Quattro all-wheel-drive system — one of the most respected AWD platforms in the automotive world. For Southern California drivers, Quattro provides added confidence on wet winter roads, mountain passes heading toward Big Bear, and uneven urban terrain alike. It continuously monitors traction and distributes power intelligently, giving you a sure-footed feel in virtually any condition.

Audi Q5 Features and Interior

What the Premium Plus Trim Delivers

The Premium Plus trim level is where Audi's Q5 lineup really starts to shine. Buyers can expect features including a panoramic sunroof, leather-appointed seating, a Bang & Olufsen sound system, Audi MMI navigation with a touchpad interface, dual-zone automatic climate control, a power tailgate, and heated front seats. The cabin is quintessentially Audi — precise, quiet, and beautifully assembled with soft-touch materials throughout.

Visibility and driver assistance tech are also a highlight of this trim, typically including blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and a rearview camera. The interior space is well-balanced for both front and rear passengers, and cargo capacity behind the rear seats is among the best in the compact luxury SUV segment.

Audi Q5 Reliability and Ownership

The third-generation Q5 — which this 2017 model represents — earned a strong reputation for long-term durability when maintained on schedule. Owners consistently praise the build quality, ride comfort, and how little the vehicle seems to age over time. The 2.0T engine is a high-volume, well-developed unit used across multiple Audi and Volkswagen Group platforms, meaning parts availability and technician familiarity are both excellent in the Los Angeles area.

Routine maintenance items to stay on top of include oil changes every 10,000 miles (using full synthetic), spark plug inspections around 60,000 miles, and timing chain service checks. With proper upkeep, Q5 owners regularly report 150,000 to 200,000 miles of reliable service. This example at 100,308 miles has likely had its major early-ownership expenses absorbed by a previous owner — making it a smart buy for value-conscious shoppers.
