ABOUT THE 2025 AUDI Q5 PLUG-IN HYBRID QUATTRO
The 2025 Audi Q5 Plug-In Hybrid quattro is the plug-in hybrid version of the second-generation Q5 (FY), a five-seat compact luxury SUV built in San José Chiapa, Mexico. It pairs a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder with an electric motor for a combined 362 hp and 369 lb-ft, and uses a seven-speed S tronic dual-clutch gearbox with quattro all-wheel drive. Earlier versions were badged Q5 55 TFSI e.
Battery and range
A 17.9 kWh battery gives an EPA-rated all-electric range of 23 miles (about 37 km), enough for many daily commutes to be completed without using petrol. Once the battery is depleted, the EPA rates it at 25 mpg city and 27 mpg highway. With its combined output, the plug-in model has slightly more power than even the V6 SQ5, and the electric motor’s instant torque gives it strong acceleration.
End of the line
The 2025 model year sits right at the end of the FY generation’s life. Audi revealed an all-new Q5 in 2024, so this version represents the final, fully developed form of a design that first arrived in the US for 2018. It benefits from the 2021 facelift, with its updated styling and larger touchscreen.
Practicality and buying
The battery reduces boot space slightly compared with the petrol Q5, but the cabin is otherwise unchanged. Buyers should check that the charging equipment is present and working, and that the high-voltage system has no warning messages.
Rivals
Plug-in hybrid rivals included the Volvo XC60 Recharge and the Lexus NX 450h+.
