Our Verdict
Highly recommended for those seeking a premium plug-in hybrid SUV. This example's low mileage and clean MOT record make it a strong contender in the used de-facto market.
When inspecting this 50 TFSI E, prioritize checking the service history; as a hybrid vehicle, it is vital that the high-voltage system has been serviced according to Audi's schedule to maintain battery efficiency and warranty. Check the health of the hybrid battery by noting any drop-off in electric range during a test drive.
Pay attention to the 2025 MOT advisory regarding the front tyres being worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge. This could indicate an alignment issue or uneven suspension wear, which should be checked by a professional to ensure there isn't a deeper problem with the Quattro drivetrain system.
As a plug-in hybrid, this Audi offers excellent fuel economy if the battery is regularly charged, allowing for short commutes on electricity. However, the 2.0-litre petrol engine will consume more fuel once the battery is depleted. It typically sits in a mid-to-high insurance group depending on your personal profile.
Maintenance costs are consistent with a premium German brand, with higher costs for parts and specialist labour. Expect an annual running cost of between £1,200 and £1,600 depending on your annual mileage and charging habits.
Focus on the front tyres as noted in the most recent MOT; the edge wear suggests the car may need a wheel alignment adjustment to prevent premature tyre replacement. Additionally, inspect the charging port for any signs of damage and ensure the charging cable is included with the vehicle and is in good condition.
Given it is an S Line trim, check the large alloy wheels for kerb damage, which is common on this model. Verify that the hybrid transition between the electric motor and the petrol engine is smooth without any jerking or warning lights on the virtual cockpit.
This 2021 Audi Q5 S Line is an exceptionally well-maintained example of Audi's plug-in hybrid range. With just 32,522 miles recorded over four years, it sits significantly below the average mileage for a five-year-old vehicle. The MOT history is clean, with no failures recorded, suggesting the car has been well-cared for since its first registration.
The Q5 50 TFSI E is generally considered reliable, though the complex hybrid system requires diligent maintenance to ensure long-term battery health.
