2025 Audi Q5 vs 2025 BMW X3

Serving Warwick, RI

The 2025 Audi Q5 and BMW X3 have both received exciting updates, further solidifying their positions as top contenders in the luxury crossover SUV market. From cutting-edge technology to bold new designs, these models have plenty to offer. So, how do these two revamped SUVs compare? Let's break it down before you make your final decision.

What Are the Performance Capabilities?

Both of these models are engineered to provide an engaging driving experience. Under the Audi Q5's hood, a turbocharged 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine produces 201 horsepower in the base model or 261 hp in the Q5 45 model. Quattro all-wheel drive is standard. The 2025 BMW X3 also has a turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that generates 255 horsepower. It has standard all-wheel drive. A more powerful engine is available for a steep price.

How Do Their Designs Differ?

The exterior of the 2025 Audi Q5 presents a muscular yet elegant profile. Its bold styling includes defined side panels and a sharply contoured hood. At the front, you'll notice larger air inlets and an attractive grille with a modern mesh design, accented by metallic trim. The Q5's headlights are sleeker, featuring LED bar and bulb accents that enhance its sophisticated look. On the other hand, the 2025 BMW X3 adopts a more squared, edgy appearance. The nose and hood are flat, while the iconic kidney-style grille is squared-off to complement the design. The lower fascia is sectioned, and L-shaped air inlets add a more aggressive, intense visual appeal.

What Features Do They Offer?

Inside the 2025 Audi Q5, luxury meets innovation with three advanced digital displays. This includes an 11.9-inch Virtual Cockpit driver's display, a 14.5-inch infotainment screen, and a 10.9-inch front-passenger display, all designed to enhance the driving experience. Additional features include natural speech AI voice commands, a panoramic sunroof, leather seating, and a hands-free power liftgate, among others. The BMW X3 offers a familiar dual digital display system, complete with iDrive controls for its infotainment interface. Standard features include driver memory settings, steering wheel touch controls, and a host of other expected luxury amenities, though it doesn't quite match the Q5's cutting-edge tech integration.
