2022 Audi SQ5 (Premium Plus) - Features Review & POV Road Test

[@ciscokids1]

Just one comment when you are showing the SQ5 in "Dynamic" mode you are not showing the full capability of its performance because you are not in "Dynamic" and "S". The "S" changes the transmission and holds the throttle at a higher RPM for better performance. Try it :-)

[@ericwalkr910]

I like how you said 70k is reasonable lol. I honestly feel the premium plus should come with more standard features like the matrix headlights and interior lighting package.

[@tydrives4846]

Reasonable, not great lol!

@@tydrives4846 I'll accept that haha! Trying to secure one myself this month

[@tydrives4846]

Good luck, there are very few out there. You’ll love it though!

[@ericwalkr910]

@@tydrives4846 so just wanted to say I am obsessed, bought a prestige fully loaded, real exhaust, blacked out beast. This vehicle is amazing.... I just can't figure out how to change the lane keep assist options lol early/late, AND I cant seem to log in to the damn audi app

[@tydrives4846]

Congrats on your purchase! To attempt to answer your questions - I’m not 100% sure that the lane keep assist is adjustable. If it is, it would be under the Driver Assistance menu in the Vehicle Settings section. To go along with your audi app concerns, this is not a mew problem. It is without a doubt the most prevalent problem with any Audi - AudiConnect and the Audi app, customers and sales people alike complain about it non-stop! On that note, enjoy the SQ5 and thanks for watching!

I think the engine block is aluminum alloy, like silver, but why is it black

[@12pm59]

The black optic package does not black out the Audi rings it’s a separate option

[@nicholasmyers1753]

Yeah, it does. I purchased one last week.

@@nicholasmyers1753 oh wow my a6 I had to pay extra for it

[@bz6626]

@@12pm59 you are right, we have to pay more for that, the black package doesn't come with it.

[@tydrives4846]

The black rings are optional seen on the window sticker in the video. However you need the black optics package to get black rings.

@@nicholasmyers1753 Just ordered one: Blacking out the rings and badges is definitely a separate option.

[@TheRebuilt1]

man what dealership has the inventory to loan a premium vehicle like this for a review. Grateful for the review but shocked you were able to score such a vehicle.

[@tydrives4846]

I get the insider scoop since I work for a large auto group with lots of locations! It is very tough with inventory now though. This is the first new SQ5 we have seen in probably 3-4 months. I hope you enjoyed the video!

[@sasothestrategizer]

Good choice

[@MrJrolon1975]

You have to put the car in S and Dynamic mode. The car shifts much faster, better exhaust note etc..

[@clsxx9]

The fake exhaust are a dealbreaker for me. It blows my mind that they keep doing that!

[@ericwalkr910]

I mean there is the option for a true exhaust

[@superprim12]

on p+ real

[@gavinwright2459]

New models have real exhaust just ordered one

[@clsxx9]

@@gavinwright2459 that's good to know! I *think* the sportback still has faux exhaust but not sure. hope not... lol

I thought the SQ5 came with 700 NM torque. 369 pound ft torque equals to around 500..

Why on Earth would you do this fake tips on a $66k performance SUV...
