Dropping the weight for all
the right reasons.
It’s surprising how many benefits are gained by shedding just a few pounds, let alone many. So
it should come as no surprise, then, that we went to great lengths to reduce weight when engi-
neering the Audi Q5. Beyond improving handling significantly, there is an even greater benefit
that comes with a reduction in weight. By using aluminum in such components as the hood,
tailgate, wheels and suspension, we shed a significant amount of unwanted weight, helping to
diminish the load on the engine and increase overall drivability and eciency.

That’s how we
turned our loss into your gain.
Power tailgate
With a unique clamshell design that seamlessly integrates
into the rear, the available power tailgate on the Q5 gives
you programmable end points so you can adjust the open-
ing to the height you choose—a big help in tight spaces.

Weight-saving aluminum
Using aluminum helps reduce weight while still
making for a structurally sound vehicle. And
in no place is this more evident than in the all-
aluminum tailgate. It weighs markedly less than
a typical steel tailgate, due to its lightweight
aluminum structure and clamshell design, and
helps provide exceptional structural integrity.
