When the ABT Sportsline engineers intend to tune an SUV, you can be asured that the result will be an extraordinary vehicle. That has been the case with the Touareg, Q7 and Tiguan - and that is continued with the new ABT Q5. The elegant crossover vehicle is a premium model in the category of compact SUVs, but "such a car always encourages us to create something really special," says Hans-Jürgen Abt. The managing director of ABT Sportsline emphasises that it is about "blending the ABT philosophy with the character of the car." With the ABT Q5, this worked perfectly: The Allgäu SUV is fast, sleek, extravagant, extremely versatile - and therefore evokes five wows.

The ABT Q5 is impressing, harmonic and superior from every angle. The front skirt, with the integrated underride protection, finds its equivalent in the rear skirt, which, in a very elegant way, also hides the tow bar extendable for use. The mighty front grille, the fender extensions and the dynamic door strip attachments form a unit. The rear wing, the 4-pipe-rear muffler and the BR wheel rim in size 20-inch also fit in optimally into the elegant overall picture. The ABT Q5 is indeed a car for all occasions.

The ABT Q5 follows its bigger brother from Kempten, the AS7, based on Audi Q7. A genuine ABT always has significantly more power, even more so when all four wheels are powered. The two diesel engines sparkle with energy: thanks to ABT Power, the 2.0 TDI delivers potent 190hp (140kW) instead of 170hp (125kW). The 3.0 TDI delivers the most powerful performance for the ABT Q5: with ABT Power S, it achieves 310hp or 228kW (Series: 240hp/176kW) on any terrain. Particulary impressive: its maximum torque of 610Nm. Also the 2.0 TFSI is suited perfectly for the Kempten SUV: thanks to ABT Power, 211hp (155kW) are turned into sporty 240hp (177kW).

You have the option to round off the power upgrade with ABT suspension and ABT sport brake.
The ABT springs perfectly outbalance the car, improving the handlig and lowering the center of gravity. 
The brake discs with a diameter of 380mm are strong enough to bring the fast SUV to a stand - and behind the 20inch BR wheels, they also look extremely good.
