Results were the same for the 2009 Audi Q5, as it received the maximum 5 stars for both driver and passenger safety protection for both front and side impacts testing from the NHTSA. Four-wheel disc brakes equipped with anti-lock braking system as standard, electronic stability program, daytime running lights, standard tire pressure monitoring system, quattro permanent all-wheel standard on all models, add to the reasons behind the fantastic performance of the Q5 at the crash tests.
