Your actual mileage may vary?

What kind of Gas mileage would I expect to get from a 2011 Q5 Quattro? Either engine?

With mostly city driving, I'm averaging around 17 MPG, actual calculation, with the 3.2 engine.

I have a 2010 Q5 3.2- average 25 MPG on highway. Always use highest octane gas- which seems to make a difference. Prefer Shell gas based on service manager's recommendation.

Love the car!! Good luck!

Averaging 19mpg all stop start city driving - 2.0 TFSI, but with only 300miles the engine is still not run in.

Funny that the Computer is indicating 18mpg!!!!!!!

I have a 2010 Q5 3.2L with about 6,500 miles on it. 95% of my driving is in and around the city where i am averaging 18.2mpg calculated and tracked on Fuelly. Trip computer #2 is showing 17.9 mpg lifetime for the car, which is close to the real mpg i am calculating. On the few long highway trips i have taken, i have averaged right around 25mpg.

Check out Fuelly.com and search Audi Q5. There are quite a few Q5 owners posting their mileage for both 2.0T and 3.2L

I write down my miles and gallons at each fillup and calculate.
It's 19mpg combined city/highway.
My daily 20 mile commute is 1/2 city, 1/2 highway.

I am seeing about the same mileage on my car - 25+ on the highway (even from Denver to Seattle and back) and 18-19 around town for really short commutes. I have verified the mileage with real data too.

Audioi · 03-21-2011, 03:11 AM

Appears there are not too many 2.0T out there yet?

My dealer (has a lot full of V6 & 2.0 says to get the 2.0)?

okietawney · 03-21-2011, 09:03 AM

on the 2.0. I can get 30 mpg if I keep to 55-60. On my expressway commute I can manage 31-32 when I really really baby it.

I did manage a fine 28 mpg on a 600 mile trip on interstate 44 over Christmas with 4 people and 65-69 mph.

Drive hard in the city and high teens likely but I am rarely in town.

The turbo is likely using more fuel than the 3.2 if you drive it hard. I have no data to support that other than turbos in general.

I had a 3.2 2009 model that I sold then waited a year and got a 2.0 T.

I like the 2.0 better but when passing at 60-80 mph you will miss the 3.2.

Our 2.0T gets around 19 mostly city driving.
On highway trips it gets around 27mpg loaded with 5 people. Mostly driving at 70mph or less. Which is almost identical to the EPA rating. I imagine if the roads are flat it'll pick up another MPG or so.
