No news with regards to the Q5 yet, except that it has definitely been delayed until early 2009, although we should see a demonstrator in December

just thought I would let you all know

Hi Rahoo.

Any reason fior delay ?

 

[Rahoo]

probably becuase the resale value of my Q7 will go down and down !

Rahoo - just chatting with wifey tonight about getting something in the meantime before the Q5 comes along - your post might have just clinched it - will give my dealer a call tomorrow

Is this for the UK only ?
I'm getting in showrooms October / November for mainland europe.
You connected with Audi Rahoo ?

 

[Rahoo]

thats what my dealer said, I will check again based on what you have said as It seems that the UK is Tier 1 with audi worldwide and should be getting the Q5 at the same time as continental europe

I have just received communication for Docklands Audi, that the Q5 will be delayed till early 2009.
Do we anymore info from greater europe ?

 

[Tractorboy]

Just made it's euro debut at Madrid car show......press here in France still reckon October / November

Making its European debut was the Audi Q5. The latest addition to the growing compact SUV sector apes the look of its big brother the Q7, and will provide stiff competition for the BMW X3 and Land Rover Freelander

Anyone know when the actual specifications, extras, price lists et al will be released for the UK?

 

[Kaine]

maj,

This official info is not released yet - were all still waiting. If you look through the forum you will see various engine and gearbix possibilities (including a potential hybrid version), however no one has any definitive info
