2022 Ford Bronco Sport vs. 2022 Audi Q5

The 2022 Ford Bronco Sport is a great option if you're looking for a powerful crossover SUV with a sleek appearance and exceptional performance. Due to its incredible mobility, this one is strongly suggested.

What additions to the existing list of standard features will the 2022 Audi Q5 have? Now let's compare these two.

Design & Style

Since the Ford Bronco Sport weighs between 600 and 900 pounds less than the Audi Q5, it could be more effective, handle, and accelerate better.

Due to its smaller size (11.6 inches less than the Q5), the Bronco Sport is simpler to drive, maneuver, and park in confined situations.

When less engine cooling is required, the Bronco Sport's front grille features electronically controlled shutters to block airflow and save drag. This enhances highway fuel efficiency. Active grille shutters are not available in the Q5.

Technology & Safety

The Bronco Sport offers an optional Trailer Wobble Control feature which utilizes separate brakes to resist any swaying and keep the tow vehicle and trailer stable after detecting trailer sway using AdvanceTrac® sensors. Electronic trailer sway control is not available in the Q5.

A driver's side knee airbag that is situated low on the dashboard is a standard feature on the Ford Bronco Sport. The knee airbag aids in keeping the driver properly positioned during a collision for optimal protection by preventing the driver from slipping beneath the seat belts or the primary frontal airbag. In the event of a severe frontal accident, a knee airbag also aids in protecting the legs from impacting the dashboard, reducing the risk of knee and leg injuries. Knee airbags aren't a feature of the Q5.

The Bronco Sport's driver alert monitor sounds a warning and advises a break when it discovers an inattentive driver. The NHTSA estimates that drowsy driving results in roughly 100,000 collisions and 1500 fatalities annually. Driver alert monitors are not available in the Q5.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration extensively tests new cars in frontal and side impact collisions. Overall, the Ford Bronco Sport outperformed the Audi Q5 in these tests, which indicates that Q5 drivers are more likely to sustain bodily injuries in a crash.

Performance

The Bronco Sport outperforms the Q5 in the EPA test cycle, scoring 25 city/28 highway MPH vs 25 city/27 highway MPH for the Q5.

For improved acceleration and lower engine speed on the highway, the Ford Bronco Sport comes standard with an eight-speed automatic transmission. The Q5 is only offered with a seven-speed automatic transmission.

The Bottom Line

Although both vehicles have their own unique features, the 2022 Ford Bronco Sport outperforms its competitor in every other department, especially technology. Do you still have any doubts about this crossover SUV's capabilities? We think you'll like it just as much as those who currently own the drive.
