2017 Audi Q5 2.0T quattro tiptronic Premium Plus

This 2017 Audi Q5 2.0T quattro Premium Plus presents as a well-maintained compact luxury crossover that balances everyday usability with a suite of comfort, convenience and safety features. Power comes from Audi s 2.0L turbocharged inline-4 (flex-fuel capable), rated at approximately 220 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, paired with Audi s quattro all-wheel-drive system. The turbocharged four-cylinder delivers responsive midrange power and the flexibility to accept higher-ethanol blends where available, while the quattro traction system provides confident grip and composure in a variety of road and weather conditions. The transmission is Audi s smooth automatic with a manual shift mode for more engaged driving when desired.Exterior and interior- The exterior is finished in Blue, a color that highlights the vehicle s clean sheetmetal and modern Audi design cues. The front fascia features Audi s signature single-frame grille and the lighting elements include distinctive daytime running lights and high-intensity lamps that provide both style and functional visibility.- Inside, the cabin is trimmed in Black leather, with seating surfaces and bolsters that combine comfort and support for daily commuting or longer trips. Materials in the cockpit emphasize a restrained, premium aesthetic with well-placed soft-touch surfaces, metallic or aluminum-look trim accents, and high-quality switchgear. The seating layout provides comfortable seating for five, with supportive front buckets and a 60/40 split-folding rear seat for added cargo flexibility.Comfort and convenience- Premium Plus specification typically adds a range of convenience features designed to enhance daily use: power-adjustable front seats (with power lumbar) and heated front seating are oriented toward driver comfort, while dual-zone automatic climate control allows independent temperature settings for driver and front passenger.- The panoramic sunroof (a common Premium Plus feature) floods the cabin with natural light and enhances the sense of openness for front and rear passengers. Practical touches include power windows and mirrors, keyless entry with push-button start, a hands-free or power liftgate for easier cargo loading, and convenient roof rails for carrying additional gear.- Storage and cargo arrangements are thoughtful: a flat load floor with the rear seats folded increases available cargo volume, and multiple cubbies, cupholders, door pockets and a center console provide everyday storage solutions.Infotainment and connectivity- Factory infotainment on the Premium Plus package centers on Audi s MMI system with a centrally mounted color display and rotary/joystick controller. This system provides menu-driven access to audio sources, vehicle settings, and (when equipped) navigation. Standard connectivity features include Bluetooth hands-free phone and audio streaming, USB and auxiliary inputs for device integration, and voice control for select functions.- Audio options commonly include HD Radio and availability for satellite radio (SiriusXM) and streaming services depending on original equipment and activation status. Steering-wheel mounted audio and telephone controls keep commonly used functions within reach for the driver.Safety and driver-assist systems- The Q5 s safety architecture combines passive and active systems: multiple airbags, anti-lock braking (ABS) with electronic brake-force distribution, traction control and stability control are standard. The quattro AWD system works with these systems to maintain traction under varying conditions.- Premium Plus examples often include convenience and safety equipment such as a rearview camera and front/rear parking sensors to assist with parking and low-speed maneuvers. Additional driver-assistance features (adaptive cruise, blind-spot monitoring, lane-departure warning, Audi pre-sense systems) were available depending on original options and packages; the presence of specific aids should be co
