i haven't driven my q5 all that much so i cant realy say about the efficiency so im interested in what the others are getting. im generally going highway driving and im averaging 40 mpg is that good or not?

@Gretzkyscores 40 mpg on highway driving sounds pretty impressive for a Q5 since most midsize SUVs typically hover around the 30 to 35 mpg range on highways but it could vary depending on factors like speed load and tire conditions so if you're consistently hitting 40 then either Audi did some magic under the hood or you've unlocked some next-level eco-driving skills.

That sounds good. Like what @VirgoVoyager here said, usually it's much lower as you would expect for a vehicle of that type. Is your Q5 new? What's your setup so I can also achieve that 🤣
 
I'm getting about 35 mpg mostly city and mixed driving with my Q5, highway numbers are better, so your 40 mpg sounds right on track or even a bit better than mine
 
damnn..that's insanely good, almost too good, even the hybrid models don't usually hit that, how is it measured?
 
Averaging 40 mpg on highway drives is high for me, most Q5s, even the hybrids usually get closer to 25-30 mpg on the highway. You wanna double check your numbers or how its being measured, but if it's accurate, that's definitely impressive.

yep, that's way better than average for a regular gas Q5. Many folks report getting closer to 30-35 MPG on the highway, so 40 MPG is exceptionally efficient! Keep doing what you're doing OP!
 
Keeping your driving smooth with even speeds and not too many stops can help you save gas, but getting 40 mpg in a gas-powered Q5 is still pretty amazing.
 
Mine is older and less efficient, so my numbers are way down. I'm hovering around 20 mpg around town and barely 30 on the highway. It's a 2010 quattro with the V6
