Audi Q3

The Q3 is the perfect place to start with Audi ownership. The subcompact SUV is one of the best-selling cars on our lot, making a great commuter thanks to its relatively more fuel-efficient demeanor. It represents the first foray into Audi ownership for many drivers, and while it might not have the MSRP of the models through the rest of this list, it still packs the technology and features you expect from an Audi SUV. It’s also surprisingly spacious, with up to 48 cubic feet of total cargo space.

Audi Q5

Audi’s Q5 is our best seller for a reason. It delivers a more spacious cabin than the Q3, thanks to its compact frame. It’s easy to drive too, making it a more nimble choice than larger SUVs like the Audi Q7. While no Audi is particularly affordable, the Q5 does provide another entry point to the brand, offering extra space, and more amenities than you’ll find in the model list above. The extra horsepower is notable as well, making it a sporty selection in the compact segment. 

Audi SQ5

Need a little more than sporty horsepower? The Audi SQ5 is downright fast, cruising from 0 to 60 in under five flat with plenty of room to spare. The twin-turbo V-6 combined with the compact frame is a winning formula on its own, but Audi also adds a sport-tuned suspension to offer a better driving experience. The more aggressive looking SQ5 is a favorite, and easily one of the most fun SUVs on our lot. 

Audi Q7

If you’re looking for a third row of seating, the Q7 and its sibling, the SQ7 are the only options Audi provides. The mid-size Q7 delivers plenty of space for passengers to spread out across all three rows, with an extra 14.2 cubic feet in the rear for any extra cargo. It’s not as sporty as the Q5, but it does deliver calm, everyday driving dynamics with plenty of Audi’s class-leading technology throughout the cabin.

Audi SQ7

The Audi SQ7 is the ultimate compromise. It’s a family style SUV just like the Q7, but designed for driving enthusiasts. The SQ7 is at its best with the twin-turbo V8 under the hood, allowing you to rocket from 0 to 60 in under 4 seconds. Even still, it comes with a family-tuned suspension with an air-adaptive unit and rear-wheel steering that makes it a favorite of driving enthusiasts with kids in the rear. The SQ7 adopts a more aggressive look than the Q7, with larger brakes and a sport exhaust.

Audi Q8

Audi’s largest two-row SUV is the Q8. It’s a similar size to the Q7, but removes that rear row in favor of a more attractive profile and extra cargo space in the rear. It has 30.5 cubic feet of total cargo space behind the 2nd row, and up to 60.7 cubic feet of total cargo volume. The Q8 also features some of Audi’s best technology, with parking assistance, optional night vision, and plenty more industry-leading options.

Audi SQ8

As with the other S models in the lineup, the Audi SQ8 delivers an extra helping of driving fun. It swaps the turbo V-6 out for a twin-turbo V-8, making it one of the most exciting vehicles on our lot. It’s not afraid to show off the extra power either, with a growling engine, an aggressive stance and plenty of features to help control the extra horsepower. 

Audi RS Q8

The RS Q8 looks a little understated for its steep price tag. Don’t let the incognito styling fool you, though. Under the hood is the same V-8 powertrain you’ll find in the Lamborghini Urus. When compared to the Urus, the RS Q8 is a steal, even with an MSRP well over $100,000. It delivers our best cabin, and all of Audi’s technology while giving you a driving experience just like the Lambo.

Audi Q4 e-tron

The Q4 e-tron is the starting point for drivers who want to experience an electric Audi and it's offered in two motor configurations. Even still, it delivers that jolt of acceleration you expect from an EV, making it just as engaging as any other SUV in our catalog. While it’s the smallest Audi e-tron, the Q4 adopts a cabin similar to the Q5 SUV, with about 53.1 cubic feet of cargo space. It’s offered with a standard body or with a Sportback. It carries a 77.0-kWh battery, which delivers up to 288 miles of range.

Audi Q6 e-tron

The Audi Q6 is closer in style and size to the Audi Q8, delivering 30.2 cubic feet of cargo space in the rear, making it the more attractive choice for drivers who want a little extra space from their EV SUV. It comes with the Sportback or the base SUV package, with plenty of horsepower between both motor configurations, and can spring from 0 to 60 in about 4.1 seconds. This e-tron can charge from 10 to 80 percent in under half an hour at a DC fast charger.

Audi SQ6 e-tron

The SQ6 e-tron is the highest-level EV SUV Audi offers at this time, and uses Porsche’s 800-volt charging architecture along with a 94.4 kWh battery pack. This helps it recover 158 miles of range in just 10 minutes of charging, provided the right conditions are met. This e-tron is the quickest of the SUV class, springing from 0 to 60 in under four seconds.
