Audi Q5 hybrid 2017

Saturday, 1 July 2017

Until now Audi has pretty much limited hybrid technology to its concept cars such as its A1 Sportback, e-tron Spyder and metroproject quattro. That is set to change with the upcoming Q5 hybrid quattro – the company’s first hybrid model with two drive systems.

For those of you in the greater Long Beach area who love the Audi Q5, there will be even more to love about it come this fall. That's because Audi has recently announced a hybrid version of the Q5, previously only available in Europe, will be sold in the U.S. as well.

Reach your long-range goals                                                
                                               

Whether you're going across town or across the country, the Q5 hybrid can help you reach your goals with 30 highway mpg.1 And with 245 hp and 354 lb-ft of torque, you can have fun all the way there.

Efficiency can be so attractive

From its gracefully sloping roofline to its uniquely designed wheels, this is one hybrid that doesn't look like one.   

The best of both worlds

The Q5 hybrid combines a turbocharged engine with an electric motor to deliver impressive power and torque ‐ and helps make efficient driving more attainable for all.

The high IQ of the Q5 hybrid

Already receiving high marks for efficiency, the Q5 hybrid builds an impressive résumé with advanced technology, infotainment and driver assistance systems.1 This vehicle is all about being smart.

                                                           

                                                        

The Audi Q5 is series of compact luxury crossover SUVs produced by the German luxury car manufacturer Audi from 2008,^[1] The original first-generation (Typ 8R) model was the third member  ofthe B8 family to be released after the Audi A5 and fourth-generation A4, all being based on the Audi MLB platform. The second generation Q5 (Typ 80A) debuted in 2016 and is shares the Audi MLBevo platform with the corresponding B9 versions of the A4 and A5.

Audi claims to be an buying batteries at ~$114/kwh for its upcoming electric car,                                       Says CTO                                                                                                                     

Automakers and battery makers have been quite secretive about their battery costs, which have long been believed to be one of the main barriers to electric car adoption.                                                                                                     

             

It’s why it’s surprising to see Dr. Peter Mertens, Audi’s senior vice-president of research and development, disclosing the cost of the automaker’s batteries for the upcoming new generation of vehicles that they are about to launch.
