Audi SQ7

The SQ7 is a performance variant of Audi’s midsize luxury crossover SUV, the Q7. The seven-seater is the largest SUV in Audi’s performance-oriented “S” lineup. It shares a platform and some components with the Porsche Cayenne and Lamborghini Urus, which are built by Audi’s sister brands in the Volkswagen Group of automakers.

Audi offers the SQ7 in two trims: the well-equipped Premium Plus and the range-topping Prestige. Standard features include an adaptive air sport suspension, heated front seats, and a dual-screen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. Also standard are some notable advanced safety features, including forward collision mitigation, lane-departure warning, and a surround-view camera. Leather upholstery joined as a standard feature in 2021, while a panoramic sunroof, a wireless smartphone charging pad, and adaptive cruise control became standard the following year. All were previously optional or limited to the Prestige trim.

Under the hood, the SQ7 employs a 500-horsepower 4.0-liter turbocharged V8 engine mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission, which routes power to all four wheels. No hybrid or electric versions have yet been offered.
