The Car Connection's Take

TCC Rating
8.6
8.0

TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2015 Audi Q5 remains one of the most elegant, truly car-like crossovers on the market. The 2015 Infiniti QX50 isn't as useful as many of its competitors, but it's more fun to drive–and comes with a handsome, well-appointed interior.
