Pakistani cricketers and their passion for cars have always been the talk of the town. Just a few months back, we told you about Babar Azam and his MG HS Essence, and today, we have Muhammad Yousaf and his love for the Audi e-tron Q5. What inspires the cricketers to buy iconic cars? This and much more are coming down below.
Purchase Decision
Our national cricketer and coach, Muhammad Yousif, previously had a satisfactory driving experience with the Toyota Land Cruiser and Mercedes. Both rides were comfortable and luxurious. However, falling for a V8 has never been comparable with any other make or model available in Pakistan.
Yousaf bought this German-made car 18 months ago with a budget of Rs. 25 million. His purchase decision was fueled by continuous gasoline price hikes in the country and the first test drive he took of the 2022 Audi Quattro 50.
Features And Performance
Being an electric vehicle, the most attractive feature of Q5 is its quiet cabin and noiseless drive. Its great pick and luxurious interior are feathers in the cap, leveraging a premium driving experience. Yousaf shared that he has the most amazing riding experience within the city as he doesn’t have to take a car to refuel. At the same time, he doesn’t rate this SUV as a long-route partner due to its mediocre range and poor charging infrastructure in our country.
He gets this one 80% charged at home, which successfully gives him a 240 to 250 km driving range, sufficient for 2 to 3 days within the city. In addition, its superclass sound system, tire pressure monitoring system, good pick, and affordable maintenance charges are the pointers that rate Audi Q5 above Mercedes.
Low Maintenance But High Registration Charges
Yousaf seemed quite disappointed with the high registration fees and transfer charges he had to pay for the Audi e-tron. Through the platform of PakWheels, he tried to convey this message to the responsible authorities that the electric revolution isn’t possible if people are called off with burdening taxes and subsidiaries.
