It can be said that the Audi Q5 is specially built for Asians. The overall design has given consideration to identity, taste, fun, convenience and technology. As soon as it was launched, it set off a heated topic among the car circles and won the favor of consumers. The first batch of vehicles arriving in Hong Kong were sold out in just two weeks. In addition to many innovative and avant-garde technologies, Audi Q5, which is oriented by personality design, not only meets the needs of all kinds of roads in Taiwan Province, but also conquers all kinds of surface obstacles with hidden efforts, so that both On-Road and Off-Road can feel unparalleled maneuverability and superiority, which is fully demonstrated in this activity of Audi Driving Experience.
As many as 10 Q5 test teams represent Audi’s confidence and determination to show Q5′ s all-round strength.
Driving at a high speed is safe and steady.
ADS system is full of fun
Audi’s brand-new luxury recreational vehicle Q5, which debuted in Taiwan Province, has launched three models with different power systems. In addition to the 2.0-liter TFSI single gasoline turbocharged model, it also offers two diesel-powered models, namely 2.0-liter TDI and 3.0-liter TDI. At the same time, Audi Q5 is equipped with the latest seven-speed S-Tronic automatic transmission independently developed and designed by Audi, and equipped with the newly developed electromechanical dual-clutch transmission, providing abundant and smooth power output.
Among the three models, this 3.0TDI engine is the most appreciated by the author, with smooth output characteristics without Lag.
Coupled with the full low-speed torque response, Q5′ s dynamic response is as neat as a performance RV.
In order to show the extraordinary product charm and leading technology of Audi Q5, Taiwan Province Audi Automobile specially invited a senior driving training coach from the German original Audi Driving Experience(ADE) to design various difficult Off-road checkpoints, show professional driving strength, and help the media in Taiwan Province to thoroughly experience the excellent off-road performance of Audi Q5. In order to fully stimulate the hidden high-strength skills of the Audi Q5, Taiwan Province Audi Automobile has prepared 10 Audi Q5 models with different power systems (2.0TFSI/2.0TDI/3.0TDI), starting from the Audi Neihu Full-function Flagship Center, and then going along the expressway to Liufu Village Parking Plaza, taking the lead in enjoying the driving comfort of the Audi Q5, and then conducting a series of extreme driving courses to deeply experience the Audi Q5.
This 3.0TDI Audi Drive Select system, through the choice of different modes,
The computer system will automatically match different damping, steering gear ratio,
Steering assist force and engine response make a car have two completely different driving personalities.
On the highway, the feeling of high-speed and smooth driving is the deepest impression. In the past, the unstable floating feeling of high-center SUV cars at high speed was completely improved, which made drivers more confident to improve the cruising speed and relatively increased the riding comfort of passengers in the car. In addition, the two cars tested during the activity: a brand-new 2.0 TFSI engine with a maximum output of 211hp/35.7kgm and a 3.0TDI diesel engine with a maximum output of 240hp/51.0kgm, the average fuel consumption of these two cars is 11.8km/L and 13.3km/L, respectively, and the energy-saving efficiency is the best of SUV vehicles. For the current rising oil prices, it is true.
Through the test drive site carefully arranged by the original German coach,
Let the author feel Q5′ s excellent ESP tracking control system capability, even in the emergency braking environment,
It can still provide the controllability of vehicles avoiding obstacles in front, and it is easy to handle.
1. Equipped with Audi driving selection system
In the part of power performance, the author especially praises the performance output of 3.0TDI, smooth and full acceleration force, and the seven-speed automatic transmission with good gear ratio. Even if the car is fully loaded with four adults facing the climb road at Linkou, it can still easily overtake, and when the speed reaches 180km/h, it is still blushing and breathless, which completely eliminates the shortcomings of the past SUV, and is replaced by a full-thrust power output.
It is worth mentioning that the "Audi Drive Select－-Programmable Body Dynamic System" on the 3.0TDI car is quite fun. The system provides three basic settings: Automatic auto, Comfort and sports car dynamic. Through the choice of different modes, the computer system will automatically match the Damper Regulation active damping control system. Working together with the Dynamic Steering gear ratio control system, different modes will provide different damping, steering gear ratio, steering assist force and engine response, so that owners can have two completely different vehicle personalities without changing cars.
These two original coaches, who came from Germany, have quite rich qualifications.
It can be said that they have made outstanding achievements. Call them "Coach", but it is not too much.
Germany ADE training team
Show extraordinary control strength
After arriving at the training venue designated by ADE, I moved to the starting point with two professional coaches, Mr. Harald Buttner and Mr. Christoph Klapper, who had rich experience and qualifications in the racing industry, and began to formally experience the powerful acceleration, flexible handling characteristics and advanced safety protection system of Audi Q5. In the training, aiming at the characteristics of road conditions in Taiwan Province, the design includes S-shaped cone winding, sharp turning, corner control and ABS emergency stop braking, etc., teaching how to use subtle control skills to help the car body maintain good stability and front steering, so that drivers can calmly avoid the emergency ahead and completely enjoy the charm of Audi Q5, and the author also clearly feels the stopping, steering and steering ability of Audi Q5 different from SUV models.
ADE specially designed four levels, including gentle uphill, gravel area, side slope and steep downhill.
To test Audi Q5′ s various off-road abilities, Q5 can easily overcome every level without losing expectations.
Show the ability of its all-round SUV.
However, in order to let the Audi Q5, which demands full functions, take this opportunity to show the real Off-road performance, ADE specially designed four levels, such as gentle uphill, gravel area, side slope and steep downhill, to test the various off-road capabilities of the Audi Q5. After the author’s test drive, it was found that Q5, which was originally thought to belong to the positioning of urban SUV models, was able to pass through slightly difficult Off-road terrain, which was attributed to the quattro intelligent constant-time four-wheel drive system standard on the whole vehicle system, which can provide better engine traction in general driving and Off-road sections, and the newly added Hill descent assist steep slope descent auxiliary system can even simplify the difficult climbing and downhill process to the difficulty that even female riders can enjoy off-smoothly, so that ordinary car owners can enjoy it.
Once the rear wheel idles, quattro intelligent constant-time four-wheel drive and EPS system on Q5,
It will immediately transfer the power to the driving wheel and let the vehicle quickly pass through the difficulties.
In addition, this car is equipped with a high-tech device of "roof rack detection and induction system" which is unique in the world. It can be linked with ESP signal after the aluminum alloy rail rack on the roof is installed, and at the same time, the ESP parameters can be changed to conform to the change of the center of gravity of the car body, so that the Audi Q5 can exert the same control potential in any use environment or under load.
In the corresponding part of Off-road road conditions, the entry angle of Audi Q5 is 25 degrees, and the crossing angle is 17.6 degrees.
The departure angle is 31 degrees, the height of the car body from the ground is 200mm, and the maximum wading depth can reach 500 mm.
Light cross-country is a piece of cake for Q5.
2. quattro system provides excellent off-road performance.
