Audi SQ5 diesel to return

Petrol SQ5 on the way out and Q5 EV also a no-go for Australia – but popular diesel SQ5 will return

It’s been a long time between drinks – more than three years – but Aussie customers will soon be able to resume their love affair with the butch V6 diesel-powered Audi SQ5 TDI.

After being axed from the range in July 2017 and replaced by the V6 petrol-equipped SQ5 (260kW/500Nm), the 3.0-litre turbo-diesel V6-powered Audi SQ5 TDI (255kW/700Nm) will return.

“We’re bringing it back for good reason,” said Audi Australia corporate communications manager Shaun Cleary.

With significantly more torque, a longer cruising range and better towing capability than the petrol version, the new Audi SQ5 diesel will arrive in Aussie showrooms from around September.
