Audi has unveiled a longer version of the Q5 crossover for the Chinese market at the Auto Shanghai 2025 motor show. It received the designation Q5L, which is characteristic for similar cars.

Here's What We Know

Audi Q5L is a long-wheelbase version of the "global" Q5 third generation (GU) model, which is produced from 2024. Both are based on the PPC (Premium Platform Combustion) platform and almost do not differ externally. From the differences of the Chinese version should be noted semi-hidden door handles and visually larger rear doors. In addition, the Q5L will be sold with the S-Line package by default.

Cars with the S-Line package have matrix headlights and daytime running lights with 8 customisable patterns. The rear lights are created using second generation OLED technology with individual pixel control and 8 digital signatures. The lights also have a special additional safety feature: they display a warning when approaching quickly from behind.

The new Q5L is equipped with a 48-volt hybrid system based on a 2.0-litre EA888-series turbo petrol engine coupled to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. Power output of the powertrain reaches 272 hp.

Another feature of the Chinese Audi model is the Huawei ADS 2.0 driver assistance system with lidar in the top versions.

Prices and sales start dates for the new Audi Q5L have not yet been named.
