2027 Audi Q7 Prestige

With room for up to seven in its luxuriously minimalist cabin, the 2027 Audi Q7 can haul your whole crew with minimal complaints. It also comes with a turbocharged V-6 engine that makes a stout 429 horsepower, so it can haul ass, too. Audi’s Quattro all-wheel drive is standard, naturally, and the Q7 can tow up to 7700 pounds. What’s the catch? Well, the Audi is likely to be expensive, even for the luxury mid-size three-row SUV class, and some of its rivals, such as the Buick Enclave and the Lincoln Aviator, offer slightly more interior space for less money. What those SUVs don’t have, though, is the prestige of Audi’s four-ring logo on their grilles. Expert Tip: A larger Audi SUV, called Q9, is also new for 2027 and may be a better option for drivers who need to maximize interior space. For those wanting more performance, consider the speedier SQ7. The Q7 has been completely redesigned for 2027, replacing the previous-generation version, which was offered largely unchanged since the 2017 model year. The price of the 2027 Audi Q7 starts at $72,295 and goes up to $87,145 depending on the trim and options. Under the hood of every Q7 is a turbocharged 2.9-liter V-6 with 429 horsepower. In a segment where the base engine is often a turbocharged four-cylinder, this should give the Q7 an edge in terms of performance. All-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic transmission are also standard. A conventional steel-spring suspension comes standard, but an adaptive air-spring suspension system is available as an option. Depending on the driving mode, the air springs adjust for either more comfort or more sportiness. We haven’t had a chance to test drive the new Q7 yet, but when we do, we’ll update this story with driving impressions.
