2.0T is only available in Premium and Premium Plus trim levels (other than in hybrid form where it's only Prestige-level), so it'd be the 3.0T. So their comparison will basically be the 2.0T hybrid...

Yep, no 3.0T in the regular Q5 at least for MY2018. Maybe later, who knows, but not up front. At least the 2.0T should be the newer unit in the A4 that's higher-output than the outgoing 2.0T, but it...
