I had briefly owned a 2014 Q5 2.0 TDI and apart from the build and dynamics, I don’t miss that car anymore which is a big thing to say.
BHPian Sumer recently shared this with other enthusiasts.
Completed 6 months and 5000 km of my AX7L P AT. This running is more than I had anticipated as this is not my daily driver. This is used only on leisurely drives and outstation trips. The last trip was to Kuno Jungle Resort where I drove 500+kms within 9.5 hours including a couple of breaks, and truly realised the comfort this car provides. The only minor ownership niggles have been:
Overall, the FE I have got is 10.5 (70/30 highway/city) which is at par with what I had expected when buying the car. The comfort, performance and refinement the car provides are unmatched in the segment IMO. A flex of the right foot can take you to illegal speeds very quickly. Overtakes take negligible planning. The suspension setup is just beautiful. The sound system is very good once you have switched off all the artificial 3D surround sound gimmicks (not at par with aftermarket systems of course like the one in my Brezza, but I digress). Grabbing the keys with the butterfly M brings a smile to my face, always. Prior to this, I had briefly owned a 2014 Q5 2.0 TDI and apart from the build and dynamics, I don’t miss that car anymore which is a big thing to say.
I got the car polished by the same guy who had ceramic coated my car and recommended and installed my entire Brezza system and damping (can provide details, satisfied) and took it to Lodhi Art District early morning today for some photos. I’ll let the photos do the rest of the talking.
