Check out Tampa Tribune Nov 18/2010 A Audi Q5 got hit by a Amtrak train at full speed. The Q5 took the full side impact and all 4 people survived. They all said no one who works those kind of accidents has ever seen anyone survive. "They said they just met 4 people that did". My wife loves her Q5 3.2 and I love the peace of mind.
@AzazelPony I love Audis too but let's not kid ourselves. That train was just the locomotive and I see no indication of where it hit or what speed the train was travelling. The occupants were all in serious condition as well. I think that was luck more than automotive engineering.
this is not real life... in real life my friend with her parents got into a REAL accident with the Audi Q5 and hardly survived it... it wasn't protecting as it was supposed to... just sayin..
@Blaxxx1 Oh goodness. How did it happen? I'm probably going to get a Q5 for my next car soon but this made me pretty skeptical. How surprising even though it has 5 stars.
looks GREAT! i wish my mom would get one, but she wont get anything that runs on premium fuel. she would use the car mostly for daily commuting anyways! (she has to have a 5 seat suv, dont ask me why, lol.)
It's a whiplash test. The point of it is to establish how effective the head restraint is in reducing whiplash. It simulates being rear-ended which is the most common kind of crash. A good head restraint is high and close to the back of your head. A poor head restraint won't support your head so your neck and spine will be damaged as your head is thrown backwards. The Audi Q5 has "good" head restraints. Remember: a head restraint (not rest) is a safety not comfort feature.

Haha great results, but I love how the hood of the car kinda scoots over the barrier like "hell naw! can't touch this!"

Why don't Euro NCAP do rear crash tests? The rear is the most likely place you're going to get hit in a car crash.

Wow seems to be another well-done car by Audi :)
Just in videos like these here, it becomes clear how fast airbags really explode and help!
But one bad thing: Look at 1:21, there is the inner mirror flying around in the car, that's very dangerous i think^^

@GrahamCrackers94 doesn't need premium, 95 octane is perfectly fine for the q5 :)
