Dauntless Audi Q7

Dauntless Audi Q7

Date: 2015-10-02
Luxurious comfort, the largest interior in the segment and a weight saving of up to 325 kilograms - the new edition of the Audi Q7 sets new standards. As the most advanced Q model ever made, the second generation Audi Q7 offers a new dimension in design, performance and technology.

Its innovative assistance and infotainment systems along with revised engine performance make the large SUV an impressive package. Its new engines consume significantly less fuel than the previous model and reduce CO2 emissions by as much as 50 g per kilometre.

The Audi Q7 was first introduced to South Africa in 2006 and since then has sold in excess of 4,700 units locally. As of October 2015, the second generation of the successful C-segment SUV will be available at all Audi Dealerships in South Africa.

The proportions of the new Audi Q7 are slimmer than its predecessor; the new model is 5.05 metres in length, 1.97 metres in width, 1.74 metres in height and has a wheelbase of 2.99 metres. These dimensions make the new generation 37 mm shorter and 15 mm slimmer, while the height has remained approximately the same.

The interior of the new Audi Q7 is extremely variable, user-friendly, comfortable and above all generously dimensioned. It offers the most spacious interior in the premium SUV segment. In terms of knee space, shoulder space and headroom (plus 41 millimetres in the front row), it even surpasses the dimensions of its predecessor - although the exterior of the overall car has become slightly more compact.

The new Audi Q7 will be launched in South Africa with one engine initially. The 3.0 TDI available now, delivers 183 kW of power and 600 Nm of torque from 1500 to 3000 rpm. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes 6.3 seconds, with a top speed of 234 km/h. On average, the 3.0 TDI consumes only 5.7 litres of fuel per 100 kilometres, emitting only 149 grams of CO2 per kilometre.
