Audi Q5 Available with FWD? 2.0 TDI ultra Model Delivers Only 150 HP via 6 ... - autoevolution
The diversity of models available from German manufacturers never ceases to amaze me. Even though I spend countless hours every week looking though press releases from Audi, VW or BMW, I never knew there's a Q5 2. 0 TDI ultra base model available... Power comes from a basic 2-liter diesel that complies to Euro 6 emissions regulations and only managed to deliver 150 horsepower, couple with 320 Nm of torque. Performance is not what you'd call exhilarating, as the 0 to 100 km/h sprint takes 10. 9 seconds, and the top speed is 192 km/h. The same 2-liter diesel engine is available in other configurations, delivering either 163 or 190 PS quattro all-wheel drive. In America, the all-new Mercedes GLC-Class will premiere with a 2-liter petrol engine pushing power to the rear while BMW's X3 features the sDrive18d model, also fitted with a 150 horsepower 2-liter diesel engine. Before this model year, there was another FWD version of the Q5 that had even less power, 143 hp. The upside was a fuel consumption of only 5. 3 l/100km (44. 4 mpg US). The current generation of the Q5 is getting a little bit long in the tooth. Development of a replacement is well on its way and should be completed towards the later part of 2016. Let's hope engineers will find a way to. Source: www.autoevolution.com
