Audi Q5 Negotiation Guide
Video Summary Page (12/14/2023)
Suggestions Expire at End of Month!
Inventory vs. Competition
Right now, Audi has a tight level of inventory however their competitors do not seem to be carrying much more or less than them. Most if not all the Q5s you will see will be 2024 models according to a Cars.com inventory search.
Inventory by Trim Level
I would focus mainly on acquiring a 45 S Line Premium Plus or 40 Premium because these two represent more than half of all Q5s in the United States at the moment. You’ll find that most dealerships will be eager to start negotiation on a Q5 they’ve got a few of rather than a model they don’t.
