Installation of the EcoHitch # 306-X7397 on your 2022 Audi Q5 S-Line Premium Plus will not require any cutting or modification. The hitch installs behind the bumper beam and the receiver fits in the existing cutout on the rear fascia. If you plan on installing the hitch yourself you should count on needing an extra set of hands. Reinstalling at the end is tricky since you have to line up all of the studs and get that fascia around the receiver.

I have attached an installation video below so you can see what the process is like.
