Quattro is the core technology of Audi brand, and its pure mechanical structure and zero delay make it popular. But this time, quattro has been upgraded, which can be said to be "down". The new Audi Q5 is equipped with a new generation quattro ultra intelligent four-wheel drive system, which can electronically lock the central differential and output power to the wheels with adhesion. However, compared with the mechanical structure of Torsen central differential, its ability to get out of trouble is reduced.
In contrast, BMW's brand genes are all motion control, pursuing a 50:50 load ratio between front and rear axles. Even SUV models such as X series are the strongest representatives of highway performance in the same class. In contemporary luxury cars, comfort and handling off-road and highway are no longer contradictory requirements. Although the performance of BMW X3 on the highway is impeccable, it has not reached the point of putting all your eggs in one basket, but the shortcomings on unpaved roads actually exist.
Audi matched the new Q5L with a new vertical 7-speed Tronic dual-clutch gearbox, which not only provided the vehicle with 6.7 seconds of acceleration per 100 kilometers, but also further optimized the fuel consumption level. The criterion of power system is nothing more than how to combine performance and efficiency organically. This is perfectly reflected in the new Audi Q5L.
The combination of the third generation EA888 series 2.0L turbocharged engine and the new vertical 7-speed Tronic dual-clutch gearbox not only makes it have the fastest acceleration, dual-cycle system and mixed injection system in its class, but also brings the efficiency to a new height. However, the original 8AT has been seamless, and it may be that Audi changed the gearbox itself to control the cost.
