Volvo S90 vs Audi Q5 Comparison

Underneath its sheet metal, the S90 employs Volvo's SPA (Scalable Product Architecture) platform, which made its debut with the XC90. This means a transverse front-drive layout, with unequal-length control arms in the front suspension and a multilink layout in the rear.  The car just glides over everything and that's when you keep your phone down and gaze out of the window and admire the colourful sky, at the same congratulating yourself on your buying decision.

The current edition of the Audi Q5 is still the mid-life facelift of the second-generation model that touched Indian showrooms in 2021. It keeps most of the core elements alive, such as the standard Quattro all-wheel-drive, the Matrix LED lights, and several other sharp features.

But things are about to get more interesting for this vehicle, with the imminent launch of the 2026 variant. This one will bring with it a new mild-hybrid system, which will make your city commutes better in terms of fuel efficiency. But, regardless of whether you want to wait for the new update or settle for the former, you can’t go wrong by choosing either. The Audi Q5 has always been known for its ability to absorb bumps softly while keeping you undisturbed inside the cabin, and that convenience from the car won’t be leaving anytime soon.
