Audi has long been a stalwart in the luxury SUV market, known for combining comfort, cutting-edge technology, and powertrain refinement in a stylish package. The 2023 Audi Q5 35 TDI is no exception.

The test vehicle we have here is actually an MY22 (model year) special edition called, creatively, the Limited Edition. Some of these might still be hanging around in showrooms around the country and available as a new vehicle. However, we'll try not to focus too much on the Limited Edition and instead look at the Q5 35 TDI in general.

Prices started from $68,350 for the Limited Edition, representing superb value when stacked up against some of the equivalent German rivals. But if you can't find one, Audi Australia offers the regular Q5 35 TDI in standard trim from $67,900, and in Dynamic Black trim from $71, 250. All feature an identical powertrain and running gear, just with different wheels and features.

Either way, the Q5 35 TDI remains a good value proposition against much of its competition – it's even priced below the 2.2D diesel Genesis GV70 (from $74,900). That's probably because there is an all-new generation just around the corner.
