[Twix]

The Q5 and the X1 while similar in price are two totally different classed vehicles. The Q5 is much larger than the X1. I found the interior to be much more nice feeling, but I found the drive to be boring. The view outwards from the Q5 also wasn't very good, I found blind spots in odd places and the seating position was much too van-like. It drives like the size too, found cornering to be sloppy, with lots of body roll in comparison to the X1.

Really, it's comparing an apple to a couch. One is food, the other is furniture. Not even the same class.

The other things I found was Audi hides a lot of safety features as options when they should be standard features. The dealership here in Calgary was worse than useless. I spent 2 full hours waiting around the showroom before getting the attention of the receptionist to get a test drive. At that point a salesman threw me the keys and said be back in 15. Not my idea of a test drive when I can't ask questions while driving. Overall, I didn't like Audi at all, and that's probably why I have a sour taste for them.
