2024 Audi Q7

This 2024 Q7 is a fine example of how Audi’s designers are masters at the art of deception. That is, making luxury vehicles that look purpose made for passengers and luxury buyers, but with underpinnings engineered for drivers.

The drivetrain is simple enough: Your choice of a standard 261 horsepower 2.0-liter turbo-four or this 335 horsepower 3.0-liter turbo V6.

But these engines aren’t the main focus. It’s how they work in tandem with the standard eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive system, supported by an Audi-refined suspension and steering.

ALEXANDER KELLUM: “All the mechanical bits of the Q7, you know, the steering, the suspension, the braking… they all feel just right, like they’re working in unison. You know, they say “slow is smooth, smooth is fast;” and I’m not necessarily saying that the Q7 is slow, just that it doesn’t high HP to be engaging.”

The driving experience is top notch; but that athleticism doesn’t compromise comfort. It’s quiet, gentle and lives up to the Q7’s flagship luxury appeal.

The cabin furthers the point with a healthy dose of luxury amenities, including top-notch materials and modern tech. Sure, a lot of activities are managed through the touchscreens, but it’s less than some high-end rivals and mostly intuitive.

Speaking of tech, all 2024 models now come standard with adaptive cruise assist. This model year also sees the addition of new options, like an S line sport package giving Prestige models unique accents, all-wheel steering and sport adaptive air suspension.

Beyond that, this 2024 Audi Q7 stays the course as a stylish and enjoyable luxury-utility, starting just over $60,000 with delivery and working up to $80K for a 55 Prestige S line sport.

And we’ll stay the course with plenty more Quick Spins…soon!
