Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Audi Q5 than in the Subaru Solterra. The Subaru Solterra will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Audi Q5.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Whether you pick the Audi Q5 or the Subaru Solterra, it's going to cost you about the same.

Dimensions
The Audi Q5 is a little wider than the Subaru Solterra, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. When looking at overall length, the Audi Q5 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Subaru Solterra.

Handling
The Audi Q5 has a larger turning radius than the Subaru Solterra, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Audi Q5 has a little more horsepower than the Subaru Solterra.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Audi Q5 does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Subaru Solterra.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Audi Q5 and the Subaru Solterra.
