Hm, so you are looking at Audis, all of which are gasoline powered. Yet you don't want "old old" technology. Huh? Internal combustion engines are "old old" technology?? So you maybe want a hybrid, and the only 4WD hybrid that gets 20+ mpg is the Vue, Escape, or RX400h; and you probably don't want any of those.
But you are also considering keeping your 15 mpg X5, but don't want to get ripped off giving it back.

So just keep the X5, that way you don't get ripped off giving it back, and you save money because your costs are going to go up in the event you get a new car, which brings back to the question of do you still want to drive your X5?
