Audi SQ7

The Audi SQ7 is the sporty edition of the seven-person carrying Q7 and features all the attributes that car possesses. For instance, its combination of raised ride height and four-wheel drive allows it to handle the majority of off-road situations. Where the SQ7 mainly differs from its Q7 counterpart is with its performance capabilities. Nevertheless, it’s eminently practical nature makes it very much a family-friendly automobile. Actually, it’s only when you really put your foot down on the accelerator that anyone will be aware of the ferocious power that lurks beneath the bonnet.

Discover the new Audi SQ7 As befits an Audi that is branded with the ‘S’ insignia, the SQ7 is extremely easy on the eye. This is in no small part due to its range-specific body style that includes privacy glass, a natty roof spoiler and twin-branch chrome tailpipes. A five-door body makes it easy for rear-seated passengers to get in and out of the car. Access is made even simpler by a second row of seats that individually slide and recline. The same set of seats can comfortably accommodate three adults, while rearmost positions are ideal for younger passengers. Flexibility is a key component of the load area too. With all seats in place, capacity stands at 295 litres. With five seats up, luggage volume rises to 705 litres. With all but the front seats folded, an impressive 1,890 litres of cargo space becomes available.
A pacy people carrier A standard-issue 4.0-litre 429bhp diesel engine, paired with eight-speed Tiptronic transmission, generates 900Nm of torque. This V8 unit enables the car to go from 0-60mph in approximately 4.6 seconds and achieve a top speed of 155mph.
Safety as standard The Q7 has been awarded Euro NCAP’s maximum five-star crash-test certification. Since the SQ7 is based on that very automobile and features the same passive safety features and driver aids, it makes for an ideal family car. As many as six children can be safely secured, thanks to ISOFIX points that are attached to all but the driver’s seat.
Good times A 10-speaker sound system that offers six-channel amplification should more than ensure that a full complement of passengers is kept entertained, even during long journeys. There are so many options. You might choose to stream audiobook content via Bluetooth - classic dramas or children’s stories, for instance - or perhaps unleash a library of family-favourite tunes.
