We at NamWheels have had a slightly tumultuous time with Audis in the last few years but, perhaps in an effort to extend their very best olive branch, the brand from Ingolstadt sent us one of their most delicious products…
Q5
Audi model codes
Why are some Audi A4’s referred to as B5 or B6? What came before the A6 and when was the Audi 100 produced? These and many other code-specific answers should be in the table below:
Padtoets: 2019 Audi Q8 55 TFSi
Audi se nuwe groot baas?
Sedert 2006 het Audi die tree geneem na die SUV mark met hul Q7 model. Met die groei van die mark na kleiner en meer stedelike-vriendelike SUV’s het die Duitse vervaardiger die Q5 en Q3 bekend gestel. Aanvraag het gegroei en Audi het dus in 2017 die kleinste Q uitgebring, naamlik die Q2. Met bykans 14 jaar se ervaring (meer sodra Volkswagen se produksie van die Touareg ingebring word) het Audi besluit om nog die grootste Q-voertuig tot op hede uit te bring.
Lineage: Audi Q Range

Padtoets: 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio 2.0T Super Q4
Die kompakte SUV-mark (Sportsnutsvoertuig) raak ál hoe meer versadig met elke vervaardiger wat deesdae probeer om hul stempel af te druk. Alfa Romeo is ook een van die nuutste vervaardigers wat hierdie mark probeer betree met hul nuwe ‘luukse’ SUV.
Tested: Mercedes-Benz GLC300
The right ingredients
Mercedes-Benz has been a pioneering brand from day one of the car and it’s not often that this German outfit is caught napping. Perhaps they were dozing slightly when sales figures of medium-sized luxury SUV’s shot skywards; led by the BMW X3 and Audi’s Q5. Mercedes’ answer, the GLC, only arrived last year.

So it’s finally holiday time and you’re off to the coast with your boat to visit the in-laws. Or perhaps your daughter got a new horse for Christmas? In both cases you have our sympathy.
Jokes aside though, here’s our little list of cars that can tow big loads, arranged by number of models and total weight. Please note that we based this list on manufacturer’s figures and advise that you confirm any data with your local retailer.
Sprint Review: Volvo XC60 T6
One new car, lots of information in random paragraphs.

Available with your choice of four engines, two gearboxes, four trim levels, front- or intelligent all-wheel-drive (certain models only), this stylish Swede easily matches its competitors for variety.
