B9.5 SQ5 Updates/Changes?

**minman26** · 12-07-2021 11:06 AM

I couldn’t find a thread. What was changed on the 9.5 SQ5?

**Chris@EPL** · 12-07-2021 11:26 AM

Are you talking 2020 or 2021? A lot changed just from those two.

I thought 2020 was the B9.5, but is it 2021?

2021 appears to have updated grill and fogs.

Yes, 2021 it changed. Interior went larger touchscreen and exterior the front and back changed. The engine tuning also changed for the b 9.5

2021 is the first year of the B9.5 for the SQ5.

The A4/5 got the .5 refresh earlier.

The 21 and newer SQ5 got a totally different engine management system than the 18-20 cars.

For '21, the transmission programming changed, too.

And the gearing. Gears 1-5 have shorter ratios.

Front and rear bumper covers, center grille, headlamps, taillamps, skirts/rockers, exhaust tips added (hot and faux), no flat bottom wheel, larger and touch center screen, gloss black center console, center console button delete (due to touch panel), solid pano shade... all I can think of right now aside from mentioned tuning

My 21 build came with a flat bottom, lucky me. Although i’ll miss the heated wheel these next few months.

I assume this is for the better?

From the order guide, you can add a flat steering wheel at no charge, but you lose the heated steering wheel.
