2024 Audi SQ5 Vorsprung Sportback

This 2024 Audi SQ5 Sportback carries the facelifted car's 3.0-litre TDI V6, here paired with a mild-hybrid-free eight-speed Tiptronic and quattro all-wheel drive. It makes 336 bhp and 700 lb-ft of torque, enough for a quoted 5.1-second 0-62mph sprint, while the 2,400 kg towing rating keeps it usefully practical. The diesel SQ5 is increasingly rare as Audi moves its performance line-up away from oil-burners, which gives this late example some appeal.

It is finished in Waitomo Blue, an Audi Individual paint, with red-painted brake calipers carrying the S logo. The car sits at the top of the range in Vorsprung trim and has covered 16,207 miles from new with a single owner. Optional extras include the Storage Package and the Tour Pack with adaptive cruise control.

Inside, there is a heated three-spoke leather multi-function steering wheel and Audi's wireless smartphone interface, which supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Sportback body gives up a little rear headroom for a sleeker roofline but keeps a large boot.
