Just got a fully loaded Q7. Drives very smoothly. Engine sounds great in sports mode. Super comfortable and beautiful interior. If you're into technology - the MMI is great.

Favorite Features

Smooth servo steering, engine sound, interior, MMI with integrated cell/bluetooth/sirius/nav.

Suggested Improvements

None yet.

Review

Got the Q7 about 3 months ago, and love it since. Before I was driving the FX35, which was a bit quicker but you can't really compare the quality and features that come with the Audi. As a surfer, I manage to fit a 9'6 longboard inside the car together with my wife and two kids! A great buy with cool looks.

Favorite Features

Air suspension, Bluetooth, rearview camera, huge sunroof.

Suggested Improvements

More power on 1st / 2nd gears

One week into my 3.6 Premium ownership

Review

Well, so far the Q7 has met my expectations. The handling is smooth, precise and powerful. Found out that my Q7 has no air conditioner for the two seats in the very back when my two nephews sat there last weekend. Bummer. On our trip to Santa Barbara on Saturday the temperature was well over 90 and the sunshade covering the panorama sun roof was doing little to keep the sun and heat out. My head was baking. Why not a solid sun roof cover to keep the sun and heat out? Went to a window tinting place in Van Nuys, CA to have the entire sunroof and the little sun roof at the very back tinted with a new film that has ceramic in it. Cuts the heat but not dark. Seems effective so far.

Favorite Features

I love the MMI display for the radio and back up camera. Also love the keyless entry/starter ignition button. I also like the automatic tailgate with the one touch closure. The dash layout is great as is the overall interior design...feels elegant without being over the top.

Suggested Improvements

Hate the shade cloth over the sun/moon roof... too hot in Los Angeles for this. The controls for the AC too complicated. Not enough storage. Sun glass holder worthless... sunglasses don't fit. No air for the two furthest back seats. Rear end of car looks like it has a full diaper, front a bit snouty.

New SUV is worth the wait!

Review

Handles like a sports car, or at least better than my previous Infiniti FX, and the FX is SMALLER. Brakes are powerful. Luxury features are everywhere. Engine sounds sweet and it's powerful. MMI system is very logical and easy to use. I can't wait to take it skiing!

Favorite Features

1. Handling 2. Style 3. Features

Suggested Improvements

Only one. Bring back the rear treatment as in the Pikes Peak Concept. Rear looks a bit too busy.

Review

I bought my Audi Q7 to replace my Honda Pilot. I needed the extra towing capacity and I wanted a luxury SUV. The Audi Q7 did not disappoint me. The inside is typical Audi, comfortable, quite and well thoughout. The controls are all first rate and the car's performance and handling are top notch. The mileage is averaging about 16.3 mpg in mixed driving. If you select the sport mode on the transmission, it makes a huge performance difference, but it does hurt your mileage. All in all probably the best SUV on the market today.

Favorite Features

Rearview camera, Bluetooth cell phone interface and the Advance Key are three of my favorite features

Suggested Improvements

I am not a big fan of the navigation system. It is a bit cumbersome to use and not easy to work.

No funner 7- seat SUV out there!

Review

I just got the car a few days ago and it was worth the wait! Having three kids and looking for a luxury and sporty SUV with room for friends is challenging. Audi did it! Not only is the handling fantastic but with the air suspension upgrade, the ride is so smooth. The features for the driver and the passngers are fabulous. Although the third row is too small for an adult, its perfect for kids. Having the sun roof in the rear doesn't make you feel confined as in other 3rd row mid size SUVs.

Favorite Features

Love the bluetooth, glass roof and rear camera with the parallel parking assist.

Suggested Improvements

A little more initial power at the start. A litte bit slow. Touchscreen navigation.

Audi's greatest sedan is an SUV

Review

I am not an SUV guy, I was looking at an A6 or even an A8. This was responsive and more fun to drive. I made my commute less stressful. I do have some guilt about the mileage after driving an A4, but the visibility sitting up higher made up for that, and the handling kept has all you expect in German Sportiness

Favorite Features

Handling, all wheel drive and awesome braking

Suggested Improvements

Have not come across any yet

Audi got it right

Review

Simply perfect. However I can't imagine this beast with anything less than a 8 cyl. The mid range torque is a blast in the passing lane.

Favorite Features

Interior appointments are all luxury. Seats are very comfortable.

Suggested Improvements

Berber Carpeting: Although likely very durable does lack the level of luxury consistent with the rest of the interior.

Review

I road tripped the vehicle from Naples to New Smyrna Beach (250 miles each way) the day after I bought it. It was far and away the best driving SUV I've driven to date and I'd dare say it was just about comparable to my 7 series. I only wish it had keyless start/entry.

Favorite Features

blue tooth

Suggested Improvements

keyless start/entry
