News is now the company has decided to reduce the size of the projected vehicle to create the Q5.
The new battery is still under development. Audi is said to have made the change because it believes smaller vehicles are more sensible. Also, its hybrid system can easily be adapted for its A4 and A5 sedans.
No official schedule has been announced for the release of the Q5, but it is being reported that the date will be 2010. Typical. Our take? 2012 at the earliest.
