Competitors.

The new Audi Q7 is located in the luxury mid-size SUV, and the BMW X5, Volvo XC90, and Mercedes-Benz GLE currently on sale will become direct competitors of the new car, and these models are also just completed the replacement or mid-cycle overhaul soon after the model. The new Audi Q7 can be said to have come late, although the new car's body size compared to the old model has been reduced, but compared to competitors or more slender. In addition, its technological interior design and rich configuration will also be a highlight.

Audi Q7 models have been launched for a full decade, and the new Audi Q7 compared to the old model has undergone qualitative changes, although its exterior styling faded some of the dominance, from the new car interior design, configuration, and overall driving performance, the new car does not lose to direct competitors, and even stronger in some aspects.

In addition, in terms of power, the 2.0T four-cylinder and 3.0T V6 engines, the test drive to see if the performance of these two engines is still good. If you complain as a luxury mid-size SUV, the new Q7 why the absence of more in line with the identity of the V8 engine, then I want to tell you to wait patiently again, because next year Audi will have a surging power of the V8 engine on the new Q7, but then it may be called Audi SQ7.
