Q5 vs Passport: Head-to-Head in Performance
When you embark on your next excursion, you'll want an SUV that can power you forward with plenty of thrills. With the V6 under the hood of the Passport or the turbo 4-cylinder in the Q5, you'll see incredible acceleration in any situation. The smaller Q5 needs less horsepower to get it moving at those fast speeds.
Both models offer all-wheel drive for extra traction. This feature only comes standard on the Q5, though. Its quattro® all-wheel drive intelligently sends power to the wheels with the most grip. The result? You'll have surer footing on even the most slippery of roads.
The Q5 and Passport can handle light off-road adventures. With just over eight inches of ground clearance in both, you can pass over low-lying rocks, brush, and jagged terrain without issue!
Interior Features: Comfort & Class on the Road
When you slide inside the Audi Q5 or Honda Passport, you'll be greeted by soft-touch materials and high quality. Leather upholstery, standard in the Audi and available in the Passport, elevates your experience as you settle in for the drive ahead.
Want to let the light shine in on your ride? These SUVs offer available power moonroofs to let some fresh air and natural sunlight in. Only the sunroof in the Audi Q5 is panoramic-you can drench the whole cabin in light and give your backseat riders a clear view of the skies above!
In any weather, these SUVs make comfort a priority with standard 3-zone automatic climate control. Let the driver, front passenger, and rear cabin at large each control their own seat temperatures.
Comparing Technology Features
Your drive can be enhanced by the connectivity features at your fingertips. The 2019 Q5 and Passport are equipped with various technologies, but the Audi car offers more standard. On the base trim level, you'll find an MMI® system with a 7-inch display screen, Apple CarPlay®, and Android Auto™.
The Passport comes up a bit short, with a smaller 5-inch screen and no standard smartphone integration features. You'll find a larger screen, plus the Apple and Android features, on higher trims.
What you won't find, though, is the MMI® all-in-touch system available in the Audi Q5. Its touchpad has handwriting recognition for commands on-the-go. Just write your entry with your finger and save yourself the time of typing letters and numbers one-by-one.
