Audi has its own mainstay on high premium SUV segment, the Audi Q5. Audi claims the Q5 is a sporty SUV in its class. Really?

The Audi Q5 is Elegant and Sporty. First time I saw, it looks like two things were so strong against the body of Audi Q5. Especially when he knows the benefits of features, and technology embedded in this Audi SUV.

2.0 Turbo FSI engine is the actual capacity of the engine, that’s why the Audi Q5 has many competitors, especially from Japanese brands. However, once we step on the accelerator, actually this is where the power of technology developed by European manufacturers is located.

Before moving, electronically Audi Q5 offers 3 choices of driving characters (Audi Drive Select). Comfort, Auto and Dynamic, we can choose it simply by pressing the button located on the center console.

For example when we selected Dynamic, we will feel more rigid steering, and suspension that had suddenly become much harder than the default (Auto). Similarly also happen with the engine acceleration. It’s really responsive.

Similarly dual clutch transmission S-tronic 7-speed combined with permanent 4-wheel drive Quattro Audi characteristic; really spoil the adrenaline of racing enthusiasts.

However, when choosing the Comfort mode, we will feel just the opposite. Suspension suddenly become gentler, steering wheel becomes so light without reducing stability, and traction engines smooth.

Thus, the field of on-road or off road, might actually be traversed by Q5, because Audi themselves say, Q5 is a dynamic combination of a sporting sedan, cruising all terrain capability and flexibility of space.

Q5 trunk space becomes more relieved that the tires are placed on the reserve can be folded into the trunk, so it is more concise. When needed, there is a mini-compressor that is more convenient.

Audio system, with display monitors and 14 speakers surround sound combination, making your browsing really like the holiday is always a relaxed and fun with this SUV.

Finally, Toyota announced they would stop selling Camry, along with seven other models in the United States. This delay due to problems on the accelerator. Most of the gas pedal still depressed even though the driver was let go.

Toyota, which beat General Motors Co. two years ago as the world’s best car, with a reputation for quality and reliability, was forced to stop selling eight car models in North America. Including the best-selling Camry is sold, until the repair is complete.

In addition, Toyota also will draw back for repair (recall) eight model. Some Toyota dealers will be open 24-hours to make repairs.
