Audi Q5 e-tron: Which Version Should You Buy?

The Audi Q5 e-tron range consists of the 35 AT, 40 AT, and 50 AT. All three are fully electric, rear-wheel-drive versions with a 1-speed Automatic transmission and 310 Nm of torque. The main measurable difference is power: the 35 AT produces 180 hp (132 kW), while both the 40 AT and 50 AT produce 204 hp (150 kW).

The Audi Q5 e-tron range consists of the 35 AT, 40 AT, and 50 AT. All three are fully electric, rear-wheel-drive versions with a 1-speed Automatic transmission and 310 Nm of torque. The main measurable difference is power: the 35 AT produces 180 hp (132 kW), while both the 40 AT and 50 AT produce 204 hp (150 kW). Based strictly on the available specifications, the 35 AT is the lower-output choice, whereas the 40 AT and 50 AT provide 24 hp and 18 kW more without changing the listed torque, transmission, drive, suspension, or brakes. The data gives no price, range, equipment, dimensions, or weight figures, so it cannot establish whether the 50 AT offers a practical advantage over the identically powered 40 AT.

Audi Q5 e-tron generations and versions

There is one Audi Q5 e-tron generation in the catalogue. The 1 generation started production in November 2021 and has no recorded end date. It uses the SUV 5-doors body and contains three versions: 35 AT, 40 AT, and 50 AT.

Because all three versions belong to the same generation, there is no generation-to-generation change to compare. The supplied data also records no restyling. Searches for particular model years may lead buyers to expect annual differences, but no year-specific changes can be confirmed from this dataset.

Audi Q5 e-tron specs and engine comparison

Each version uses an Electro powertrain rather than a combustion engine. Displacement, cylinder count, cylinder layout, and boost are therefore recorded as not measured. The specifications do not list battery capacity or electric range.

The 40 AT and 50 AT each have 24 hp more than the 35 AT, an increase of about 13.3%. Their 150 kW rating is 18 kW above the 35 AT’s 132 kW, an increase of about 13.6%. Torque remains 310 Nm in every version, so the higher-output versions do not gain any listed peak torque.

Power per litre cannot be calculated because displacement is not measured. Weight per horsepower also cannot be calculated because kerb weight is not measured.

Performance, range, and economy

Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h is not measured for the 35 AT, 40 AT, or 50 AT. Top speed is also not measured for all three versions. Consequently, the extra 24 hp of the 40 AT and 50 AT cannot be converted into a verified acceleration or maximum-speed advantage from the supplied data.

Electric range is not measured for any version. City consumption, highway consumption, and combined consumption are not measured for the 35 AT, 40 AT, and 50 AT. An MPG comparison is therefore unavailable, and the dataset does not support a claim that one version is more economical than another. Battery capacity and charging figures are also not measured.

Audi Q5 e-tron dimensions, weight, and wheels

Kerb weight and gross weight are not measured for any of the three versions. Ground clearance is not measured, tank capacity is not measured, and wheel sizes are not measured. Overall exterior dimensions are not measured as well.

These omissions matter when choosing between versions. Without kerb weight, it is impossible to determine whether the 40 AT or 50 AT carries additional mass or has a better power-to-weight ratio than the 35 AT. Without wheel-size data, tyre-size differences cannot be confirmed. Without dimensions or ground-clearance figures, no version can be recommended on the basis of size or clearance.

Chassis and brakes

The 35 AT, 40 AT, and 50 AT share the same listed chassis specifications. Each has Independent, spring front suspension and Independent, spring rear suspension. Every version uses Ventilated disc front brakes and Disc rear brakes.

This means the available data shows no suspension or braking upgrade when moving from the 35 AT to the 40 AT or 50 AT. Any difference in ride, handling, or equipment would require information not present in the dataset.

Which Audi Q5 e-tron version should you buy?

Choose the 35 AT if 180 hp and 310 Nm meet your needs and the lower-output version is meaningfully cheaper in the market you are considering. It has the same listed 1-speed Automatic transmission, RWD system, suspension design, torque output, and brake types as the other versions. However, actual prices are not provided, so value for money cannot be calculated.

Choose the 40 AT if you want the highest recorded output while avoiding an unsupported assumption that the 50 AT is mechanically stronger. The 40 AT delivers 204 hp and 150 kW, giving it 24 hp and 18 kW more than the 35 AT, while retaining the same 310 Nm rating. On the supplied numbers, it is the clearest power upgrade.

Choose the 50 AT only if its price, equipment, condition, or another independently verified feature makes it preferable. In this catalogue data, the 50 AT matches the 40 AT at 204 hp, 150 kW, and 310 Nm. It also has the same Electro fuel label, 1-speed Automatic transmission, RWD, Independent, spring suspension at both ends, Ventilated disc front brakes, and Disc rear brakes. No measured specification here explains what extra money might buy over the 40 AT.

The evidence-based ranking is therefore straightforward: the 40 AT and 50 AT jointly provide the most power, while the 35 AT supplies the same listed torque with 24 hp less. Between the 40 AT and 50 AT, the available numerical specifications produce a tie. A final buying decision requires verified price, range, battery, charging, equipment, performance, dimensions, and weight data, all of which are not measured in the supplied catalogue record.
