Overview

What's New

One year after a redesign, the 2021 Audi Q7 extends the availability of safety and convenience features to its lower trim levels and packages. Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert are now standard across the lineup. The range-topping Prestige gets standard heated rear seats and leather upholstered armrests and center console when equipped with the larger engine option.

Choosing Your Audi Q7

The Q7 is available in three trim levels: Premium, Premium Plus, and Prestige. Pricing starts at $56,045 including destination for the base model and tops out at $73,095 for the Prestige.

Engine Choices

There are two engines available on the Q7. The Premium and Premium Plus start with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that Audi designates as 45 TFSI. The Prestige gets the 55 TFSI 3.0-liter turbo six-cylinder as standard, which is available for $5,850 on the Premium and $6,600 on the Premium Plus.

Engine TypeHorsepowerTorqueFuel Economy (Combined)
2.0L Turbo 4-Cylinder248 hp273 lb-ft21 mpg
3.0L Turbo 6-Cylinder335 hp369 lb-ft20 mpg

All trims are equipped with an eight-speed automatic transmission and Audi's quattro all-wheel drive.

Passenger and Cargo Capacity

The Q7 is a three-row midsize luxury crossover SUV with seating for seven passengers. It affords second-row occupants with 38.8 inches of leg room and third-row passengers make do with only 29.2 inches.

Despite its added length over its competitors, the Q7 only musters 14.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row and 69.6 cubic feet of space with all of the rear seats folded.

Safety Features

The Q7 comes standard with automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, automatic high beams, and front and rear parking sensors.

Audi also equips a pre-collision detection system for the front and rear of the Q7 which will tighten the seat belts, quickly flash the hazard lights, and close the windows.

The Premium Plus trim is further equipped with a surround-view camera, while the Prestige comes with adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, and traffic sign recognition.

Connectivity

All Q7 models feature a 10.1-inch infotainment touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay, wired Android Auto, navigation, satellite radio, HD radio, wi-fi connectivity, and a 12.3-inch driver information display.

The Premium Plus trim gets a wireless charging pad and a Bang and Olufsen audio system. The range-topping Prestige comes with a head-up display.

Audi Q7

Premium - From $56,045

The Premium is nicely equipped for being the base trim. LED headlights and taillights, heated and power-folding mirrors with memory, 19-inch wheels, a power tailgate, a panoramic sunroof, and satin silver roof rails that match the window trim are all included.

Inside, heated and eight-way power front seats, leather upholstery, wood trim, three-zone automatic climate control, navigation, and Audi’s 12.3-inch Virtual Cockpit make the Premium feel luxurious and high-tech.

For an added dose of comfort, the $1,500 Convenience Package includes auto-dimming side mirrors, a wireless phone charger and signal booster, ambient interior LED lighting, a surround-view camera system, and a heated steering wheel.

Premium Plus - From $58,295

The Premium Plus trim includes the features from the Premium trim's Convenience Package as well as an audio upgrade to a Bang and Olufsen Premium system with 23 speakers.

The Executive Package is offered for $3,050 and includes ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, four-zone climate control, adaptive cruise control, and lane keeping assist.

Prestige - From $73,095

In addition to the six-cylinder engine, the top-tier Prestige trim includes an automatically adjustable air suspension, 20-inch wheels, soft-closing doors, acoustically laminated side windows, and matrix-design LED headlights.

The interior is dressed to impress as well with extended leather surfaces, aluminum optic controls, a full-color head-up display, and multi-color ambient lighting. Four-zone climate control, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and memory for the steering column are also included.

The Prestige trim is available with several exclusive packages that demonstrate the best that Audi has to offer. The Luxury Package is $5,800 and includes Valcona leather upholstery, an Alcantara headliner, and massage front seats with memory for the front passenger.

Comfort for most of the family. For families of five (or five plus two small kids), the 2021 Audi Q7 works perfectly as a midsize SUV that coddles passengers with luxury. While the third row is tight for anyone but little kids and getting back there can be a chore, it's power-operated, which is helpful. For everyone else, the Q7 provides plenty of head room, leg room, shoulder room, and luxury features.

Speaking of features, the Q7 is packed with all sorts of high-end convenience features that make the cabin a special place to be. Leather upholstery, heated front seats, three-zone automatic climate control, and real wood trim all give the Q7 its premium feel.

On top of the Q7’s lengthy list of premium features, it has an opulent interior design. With two touchscreens taking a large amount of real estate in the center console, the Q7 sports a clean, minimalistic design. In the midsize SUV segment, Audi’s crisp look plays a large role in making the Q7 feel upscale in a competitive class.

Cutting-edge technology. The Q7 was refreshed for the 2020 model year, but Audi still made a few changes for 2021. Mainly, the changes all have to deal with its touchscreens. Just like last year, the Q7 comes with two touchscreens: an upper 10.1-inch touchscreen that handles infotainment duties and an 8.6-inch touchscreen to handle HVAC and vehicle settings. For 2021, the screens now have more features, will feature more frequent updates, and respond to inputs quicker.

In addition to the two-screen layout, the Q7 also comes with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster running Audi’s Virtual Cockpit System. It’s a great use of available space and, once you get used to it, works flawlessly.

For 2021, Audi’s added more standard safety features to the Q7. Beyond automatic emergency braking, the Q7 now comes with blind-spot monitoring, lane keeping assist, automatic high beams, rear cross-traffic alert, and a driver attention monitor. Together, the changes make the Q7 more high tech than ever and somewhat of a good value option.


Audi Q7

Three strong engines. The Q7 is available with two muscular engines that provide strong performance. Our favorite is the available turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 that makes 335 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. The V6 engine also comes with a mild-hybrid system.

While there’s a tiny bit of turbo lag, paddle shifters allow drivers to get the engine in the sweet spot for punchy performance. With a 0-60 mph time of 5.7 seconds, the V6 engine endows the Q7 with great performance for a 5,000-pound SUV. A stout towing capacity of 7,000 pounds is also included with the V6 engine.

With an eight-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel-drive system as standard, the Q7 is a smooth operator in various weather and road conditions. An available adaptive suspension system means it's supremely comfortable on a highway or composed around corners.

Lumpy exterior design. The high-tech, upscale cabin looks exquisite when compared to the competition, but the Q7’s exterior design isn’t as youthful as others in the class.

From a style standpoint, there seems to be a disconnect between the sharp front-end design and the bulbous look of the rear end. It’s not that the Q7 is ugly, but it lacks the wow factor of other options.

Final thoughts. The 2021 Audi Q7 adds more dimension to an already versatile and luxurious machine. While it may not offer a spacious third row of seats or the fuel economy that competitors offer, it’s packed with high-tech features, is incredibly comfortable, and is a strong performer. Few are as well-rounded as the Q7.

When it comes to competitors, the Porsche Cayenne bests the Q7 when it comes to performance, the BMW X5 is more athletic around corners, and the Lincoln Aviator has a more stylish design, as well as a more comfortable cabin.
