Comparison: Boot space Audi Q5 vs. competitors 2025

How much cargo can handle this ?

When it comes to the Audi Q5, a compelling aspect one might seriously consider is its boot space. The current model, the Audi Q5 FY (1. Facelift) 2020-now, boasts a decent 520 litres of boot space, and with the rear seats folded, you'll have a total cargo capacity of 1520 litres. In comparison to the rest of the Audi lineup, this sits somewhere between the smaller Q3 Sportback and the larger Q7. But how does it fare against rivals in its class?

Audi Q5 - How has the boot space changed over the generations?

From its inception, the Audi Q5 8R 2008-2012 offered 540 litres of boot space, which remained unchanged in the Q5 8R (1. Facelift) 2012-2017. With the Q5 FY 2017-2020, boot space increased slightly to 550 litres but reduced to 520 litres in the current model. Despite this decrease, it's important to take a look at the bigger picture by comparing the Q5 to other Audi models and competitors in its segment.
