Is the Audi Q5 a crossover or an SUV?

Is the Q5 by Audi classified as a crossover or an SUV? I know that SUVs are better for towing, and I would prefer to buy a car with a stronger frame.

The Audi Q5 is a crossover SUV, meaning it has a lighter frame and a towing capacity of 4,400 pounds. This makes the Q5 a pretty tough vehicle, despite the fact that it is classified as a crossover rather than a classic SUV.
If you want a luxury SUV that can haul a little bit more weight than this, you might be more interested in the
Land Rover Defender
, which has a towing capacity up to 7,716 to 8,201 pounds.
