Not sure about the math here, but if the US gallon is 20% smaller, then the 3.0 should get close to 29 mpg in the combined cycle. The 2.0 number would translate to around 32 mpg. Does that sound right?

would see nothing but waiting lists, and dollar signs in their eyes.
Any idea as to ground clearance? Considering as a replacement for my allroad.

The numbers speak for themselves: The Audi Q5's climbing capability of 31 degrees of incline is exceptional. The overhang angle is 25 degrees thanks to the short front overhang. The ramp breakover angle, determined by the wheelbase, is 17.5 degrees. Ground clearance is an impressive 20 centimeters (7.87 inches), with a fording depth of up to 50 centimeters (19.69 inches) when driving through water.
The excellent navigation system boasts a high-resolution monitor for new, three-dimensional representation of maps. The hard disk from which the system reads can also save music files in MP3 format. HDD drive and real time traffic.</i>
