Click above for scans of the Audi Q5.
The folks at Autobild are up to their usual shenanigans, publishing what looks to be the new Audi Q5 in all its glory. As is always the case with some of the German auto rags, we're unsure if these are official images from Audi or clever photoshops, but the proportions and details look spot-on.
The front end seems to be a nice amalgamation of the Audi A4 and the Q7 fascias, while everything aft of the A-pillar looks like the Q5's big brother at two-thirds scale. The rear light arrangement is something that seems to be carried over from Audi's show vehicles, including the Cross Cabriolet Concept.
We'll have all the details about the Audi Q5 when it's officially unveiled next month in Geneva. Thanks for the tip Tom!

Touareg 2?

Seems to be a chop of the Cayenne/Touareg

I personally think that it is a very well done photoshop. For example, all the wheels are exactly in the same position, the rearview mirror is bigger in one of the photos, etc.

thats OBVIOUSLY a chop of a q7 and an infiniti Ex. at least i really hope so otherwise audi should be expecting a lawsuit soon

The side profile, especially the glass, reminds me of the Buick Enclave.

This just an Audi version of the VW Tiguan. That's all.

Keep bringing these dumb SUV's to America where the idiotic general population will eat them up. Audi is catering to the least common denominator. Theres no need to make hideous SUV's just so you can sell somw cars in America. Wait till Audi and Benz showcase their Pick-up line for America...Thats when sales will skyrocket. lol..

well then someone has got too much time on their hands. and what about the interior? and do you realise that the "scans" are actually photos taken from the magazine...
They should be the launch model (or photo shoot models), coz the wine red colour on the front cover is "INQ50" and the dark blue model is "INQ55". This is somehow believable...
oh and btw there's more images on WCF here: http://www.worldcarfans.com/9080207.010/2008-audi-q5-real-or-photoshop
