our expert's take

What Is the 2021 Audi Q7?

The Audi Q7 is the German luxury brand’s largest SUV, with three rows of seats for up to seven people. All-wheel drive is standard, and engine choices range from a 248-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder to a 500-hp, twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8, found in the high-performance SQ7. Competitors include the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class, BMW X5 and Lincoln Aviator.

What’s New on the 2021 Audi Q7?

Blind spot warning is newly standard, and the SQ7 gains a standard heated steering wheel. 

What Features in the 2021 Audi Q7 Are Most Important?

Standard features include:

  • LED headlights with high-beam assist
  • 19-inch wheels
  • Keyless access with push-button start
  • Power liftgate
  • Panoramic moonroof
  • Leather upholstery
  • Heated front seats
  • Audi Virtual Cockpit with 12.3-inch digital instrument panel

Should I Buy the 2021 Audi Q7?

The Audi Q7 is a capable and refined luxury SUV that delivers impressive interior quality with high-tech touches. The third-row seat is nice to have in a pinch, but it’s best left to kids. We also noticed some body roll when cornering, as well as acceleration lag from the available V-6 drivetrain.

LOVE this SQ7!

With 2 large dogs, I was looking for an SUV that would not only accomodate them, but also look good and be fun to drive. The SQ7 really has it all. The sound of the V8 when you put your foot down is incredible and with a 0-60 of 4.3 seconds it always puts a smile on my face., The leather perforated and ventilated seats are comfortable for the longest drives, the fit and finish of the materials are top notch, and the adjustable air suspension you can choose how sporty you need the car to respond. The attention to detail is spot on, I love the fact that you can leave the cover on the panoramic sunroof open all the time, even on the sunniest day and there’s no glare inside the cabin due to the tint they used. I got the prestige model, with driver assistance, luxury and black optic packages. To get a similarly spec’d vehicle from the other German manufacturers with all that this car has makes this vehicle an absolute bargain even with all the packages added. Do yourself a favour and test drive it, and you’ll see what I’m talking about.
