2022 Audi Q5 Design Explained
The Q5 TFSI e quattro** and Q5 Sportback TFSI e quattro** each use a drivetrain with the same design –in both performance levels. It consists of a 2.0 TFSI gasoline engine with 195kW (265 PS) of power and 370Nm (272.9lb-ft)of torque coupled with an electric motor. The permanently excited synchronous motor (PSM) reaches a peak output of 105kW and a peak torque of 350Nm (258.1 lb-ft). Together with the separating clutch, it is integrated into the seven-speed S tronic transmission, which transfers the drive torque to a quattro drivetrain with ultra technology. In normal driving operation, the drive is provided only via the front wheels for efficiency-related reasons. The rear axle is connected instantly as required. The quattro all-wheel drive system is thus ready immediately when needed.The lithium-ion battery is located below the luggage compartment floor. It is made up of 104 prismatic cells and can store 14.4kWh (net; 17.9kWh gross)of energy with a voltage of 381volts. For optimal temperature control, its cooling circuit is connected to both the coolant circuit for the air conditioning system and the low-temperature circuit that supplies the electric motor and power electronics. The air conditioning system comes as standard with an integrated highly efficient heat pump that bundles the waste heat from the high-voltage components.
In both engine line-ups, the maximum torque is already available just slightly above idle speed. That also contributes to the superior overall impression emanating from the plug-in hybrid drive. The electronically governed top speed of 239km/h (148.5mph)and the electric power and fuel consumption are identical in both output levels. When running purely on battery power, the plug-in hybrids can run up to 61 kilometers (37.9mi)(WLTP) at a speed of up to 135 km/h (83.9mph).
