If you’re on the hunt for a leading luxury SUV, you’re almost certainly interested in the models produced by two top-tier German rivals: Porsche and Audi! However, even though each of these brands has a strong reputation, anyone who compares the Porsche Macan vs. Audi Q5 will find that the former has a lot more to offer Los Angeles and Arcadia drivers. We’ve detailed everything you need to know about how the 2022 Q5 measures up against the 2023 Macan, so don’t wait to take a closer look!

 

 

Macan vs. Q5: Performance

Both the Macan and the Q5 come standard with 2.0-liter i4 engines and seven-speed automatic transmissions—but that doesn’t mean they’re equals. As you can see below, the Macan offers significantly more power, faster acceleration, and a higher top speed:

2023 Porsche Macan Base Engine

  • 2.0L turbocharged inline 4-cylinder engine
  • 261 horsepower
  • 295 lb-ft of torque
  • Top speed of 144 mph
  • 0–60 in 6.0 seconds

2022 Audi Q5 Base Engine

  • 2.0L turbocharged inline 4-cylinder engine
  • 201 horsepower
  • 236 lb-ft of torque
  • Top speed of 130 mph
  • 0–60 in 6.8 seconds

Considering engine upgrades? The 2023 Porsche Macan is available with two powertrains that can outperform the most capable Audi Q5. The latter only offers up to 362 horsepower; the Macan is offered with a 375-hp V6 and a 434-hp V6. If you compare the Macan vs. Q5 on local racetracks, you’ll find that the Audi simply has trouble keeping up.

Macan vs. Q5: Features

Yes, the new Porsche Macan has a higher starting price than the Audi Q5—but this is one matchup in which you absolutely get what you pay for! Here, we’ve highlighted just a few of the features that are standard on the Macan, but either optional or unavailable on the base-level Audi Q5:

  • 19-inch wheels (vs. 18 inches on Q5)
  • Interior cargo shade
  • Keyless entry & start
  • Remote trunk release
  • Wi-Fi™ hotspot compatibility
  • Navigation system

It’s also important to note that the entry-level Macan offers a wide range of optional features that you’d need an upgrade to access in the Audi Q5. These include active air suspension, a locking rear differential, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and many others.
