Buying a new Audi Q5 on a vehicle finance plan will cost you at least R16,000 per month.
This is according to a calculation done by TopAuto.
Audi’s latest Q5 has been updated with a sportier look and more technology – and now starts at R852,000.
A flatter grille, larger trapezoidal air intakes, new LED daytime running lights, a new side sill, and a redesigned rear diffuser have also been included on the SUV.
The specification lines on offer are then: Standard, Advanced, and S Line – with the SQ5 packing a 3.0-litre, V6, petrol engine.
This motor produces 260kW and 500Nm, and takes the car to 100km/h in 5.4 seconds.
On the inside, Audi also made few changes to the Q5’s cabin.
The rotary control knob on the centre console has been removed, while the body’s width and height are identical to the previous model.
Monthly payments
To work out how much you will pay per month when purchasing an Audi Q5 on a vehicle finance plan, we looked at the entry-level and top-end Q5 models.
These are the:
- Audi Q5 40 TDI Quattro – R852,000
- Audi SQ5 TFSI Quattro – R1,208,000
The prices for these vehicles were then placed into the formula below.
- Car Price – R852,000 / R1,208,000
- Payment Term – 60 terms (5 years)
- Interest – 9%
- Deposit – 10%
- Balloon – No balloon payment
- Extras – No optional extras
The result for the Q5 40 TDI Quattro is a monthly finance payment of R16,000. Total interest paid over the duration of the agreement is R188,500.
The result for the SQ5 TFSI Quattro is a monthly finance payment of R22,600. Total interest paid over the duration of the agreement is R267,200.
It must be noted that these figures exclude insurance premiums and fuel costs. They also exclude consumable items like tyres, and any repairs and/or maintenance which falls outside the included the Q5’s 5-year/100,000km Audi Freeway Plan.
