Volvo XC60 vs Audi Q5

Compare the Volvo XC60 with the Audi Q5

Two luxury brands. Both refined. Both have an appeal to classic luxury styling by adding modern aesthetics. However, there's only one that appears to have luxury connoisseurs clamoring for the driver's seat. We'll show you how our luxurious Volvo XC60 compares to the Audi Q5 at Betten Volvo Cars near Rockford, MI.

Exterior Design

Volvo XC60

Dazzling appeal starts with a panoramic roof and front grille with a high-gloss black insert, high gloss black door mirror covers, and five double-spoke Black Diamond cut alloy wheels. Upgrading to a higher trim will infuse 20-inch wheels and all-season tires into your exterior design. LED lights resemble miniature rockets, while available vertical LED lamps become available with an upgrade. The front fascia is wrapped neatly with the Volvo emblem and solidifies a classic yet modern exterior design in Wyoming, MI.

Audi Q5

The Audi Q5 brings a basic design to its two-row SUV. LED lights along the front and rear ends are additions that won't stand out much. The S-line design is at a cross between sporty and refined, with gaudy 20-inch wheels becoming available on select packages. Available exterior accents like satellite silver inlays, black headliner, and red brake calipers turn an otherwise modern design into a slightly more appealing display of luxury.

Interior Design

Volvo XC60

Standard leatherette upholstery with blond headliner and Iron Ore aluminum décor create a comfortable interior design for entry-level models. Those who desire minimal appointments will settle nicely into the Core trim. However, available features such as interior illumination through ambient lighting, heated/ventilated Nappa leather upholstery, a crystal gear selector, and a tailored dashboard are standard and available in higher trim levels like the Ultra.

Audi Q5

The Audi Q5 adds an available flat-topped, flat-bottom steering wheel to give a more lively appearance on the road. Slight touches of refinement come with leather and fabric combinations that evoke comfort and styling in the same breath. Available LED interior lighting, heated front seats, and a power panoramic sunroof highlight some of the most alluring features of the new Audi Q5.
