The second-generation Audi Q7 was unveiled in January 2015 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, and facelifted for the 2020 model year. Changes included a redesigned grille, new front and rear bumpers, new side sills, chrome trim for the tailgate, and revised exhaust tips. Inside, it has a new dual-screen infotainment system with MMI navigation plus, and an updated dashboard and centre console. Standard equipment includes LED headlights, adaptive air suspension and the Drive Select system, which influences the vehicle’s driving characteristics with up to seven driving modes.

In the range-topping ‘Vorsprung’ trim level, each Q7 features a panoramic glass sunroof as standard, along with 22-inch Audi Sport multi-spoke ‘S’ wheels with a gloss-turned finish, four-zone automatic climate control, multi-coloured extended interior LED lighting, a head-up display, a Bang & Olufsen premium audio system, and HD Matrix LED headlights with Audi Laser Light and digital OLED rear combination lights.

Under the bonnet is a 3.0-litre V6 with Audi’s efficiency-enhancing 48-volt mild-hybrid system, paired with an eight-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission and the Quattro all-wheel drive system.

With the 50 TDI diesel engine, producing 282 bhp and 443 lb-ft, the car can complete the 0-62 mph sprint in 6.3 seconds, before hitting a top speed of 150 mph.
