F-PACE vs Q5 Performance Matchup
Under the hood, the standard engines of the Jaguar F-PACE and the Audi Q5 are very similar, creating a refined and powerful performance. However, the Q5 only offers one engine option while the F-PACE has four engines for you to select from. The available 5.0-liter V8 engine produces 550 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque to take you from 0 to 60 MPH in just 4.1 seconds.
Also available on the F-PACE is Adaptive Dynamics. When you're accelerating and cornering, it modifies your response to provide you with the optimal driving performance. This system constantly adjusts to provide a poised and comfortable drive. Unfortunately, this feature is exclusive to the F-PACE, so you may notice a difference in the way these cars handle.

Interior Differences in the Jaguar F-PACE vs Audi Q5
The interiors of these two SUVs are also similar, offering over 37 inches of rear legroom for your passengers to comfortably stretch out. The rear seat in the Jaguar F-PACE though, has the available option for electric recline, allowing your back seat guests to find the perfect seating position with just the touch of the button. Once again, this feature is not available on the Audi Q5, so your passengers may not be as comfortable during long treks.
To help make your expansive cabin feel even more spacious, the F-PACE and Q5 have panoramic glass roofs to let in some sunshine. If you're looking to illuminate the interior at night as well, the F-PACE offers Configurable Ambient Interior Lighting. This available feature highlights the finest interior design details in ten color choices to create an ambience to suit your every mood.
