Can The Q5 Possibly Be The Best Allround Crossover Yet?

When the German luxury sport carmaker brought out the Audi Q5 this year, you just knew it was going to be good.

This is not just another luxury crossover. It's one with attitude, and once you hop behind the wheel, you'll come to believe that it doesn't know it's a crossover, it thinks it's a car.

Technically, there's some truth behind that. The Q5 is built off of the same platform as the Audi A4, so the car-like ride should be expected.

But it's the combination of this crossover's capabilities that make it so impressive. It can carry the family or just burn up open roads.

I drove this vehicle a while back and was impressed with its driving characteristics, but it was too small. It is in no way close to an RX in terms of space and comfort. I don't even know why they mention it in the article other than the towing capacity. The GLK and X3 are its competitors.

I beg to differ. When the many trade magazines compare vehicles, the RX is usually compared to the ML, X5 and Toureg.

"Best" always depends on who is buying. Subjective tastes are all around. It it is hard to define which vehicle is the class benchmark or leader. I've never looked upon it in this way either.

I see a car that I like (design, value etc.) and I buy it. To me it is the "best choice" because it suits my wants and needs. It might not appeal to the majority of shoppers in the same class though.

Rx is still X5 and Ml's competitor, the only thing is X5 and Ml are getting bigger and bigger.

This vehicle is awesome at everything except hauling copious amounts of cargo.
