Looks like an import vehicle brought by some embassy. Sure looks like a killer waiting to pounce on the current greats within the segment. Does anyone know when Q5 will be officially coming to Indian shores.

Being seeing this car since past 2 months. Seen this car quite a few times at bandra, Mahim, Couple of times at New Bombay. It's a test a car. Undergoing the test, after which is expecting to Launch in May-June.
Will come with 2L petrol, 2L tDI, 3L tdi engine.
It looks fabulous on the road, great road presence, complete Junior Q7, almost as wide as Q7. Has a great leg room, good comfortable spacious interior. Would cost around 45L, I say it's a complete worth the money.
Check some of its video on youtube.

The car in front of the q5 was the new A6 . Personally i think people would like this car as the competition to it thats the x3 is not as good looking as this car dont know about the stats. though. The rear end just takes your breath away.
