The 2009 audi a5 will have a completely new interior design as we already know from prior audi models. Audi always manges to create a new unique design.

Audi seems to put a lot of effort in the driver's seats of the q5 2009.

Look at the pictures, looks amazing, doesn't it?

The more we see of the Q5 the better it looks. Audi has come late to this SUV segment (the Q7 is great but too big for many of us), but now offers an excellent candidate in the VW Tiguan, Prado, Freelander, X Trail etc category.
Since late 2000 I've thoroughly enjoyed the capabilities of an S4, an S6, a TT and at present an A3 TDI, which, with diesel at around $1-70+ a litre does the job very satisfactorily at around 5.5 litres per 100 Km, and the urge of 320Nm combined with 6 speed DSG is great fun when the lights turn green and during open road overtaking.
Being now one of the grey nomads, mid seventies and retired, my wife and I want to see much more of this huge continent, and the many features promised in the Q5 (20 cm clearance, 50 cm fording ability, latest version of quattro giving confidence in exploring side tracks, choice of two latest technology diesel engines ... the list goes on ...) combines with the level of satisfaction and confidence as a result of past experience with Audi to give rise to great anticipation regarding the Q5's arrival.

Hey Galen,

yes. I can only agree with you. I am not sure if you have driven an Audi with quattro before? I can assure you, it's a great feeling: you have total control of your car and if it snows (probably not in Australia?) then you can still drive very well. The New MMI with 3D maps is going to be awesome as well.

I have been test driving a TT this weekend. It was awesome. I liked the new S-Tronic most. I am not sure if the Q5 will have that too?
