Audi has opened the order book on the all-new Q7 SUV. Prices for the seven-seat flagship start at €72,975 with first deliveries expected in July, though those who order the entry level 218hp 3.0-litre V6 TDI model will have to wait until later in the year. That price tag represents a €5,000 cut on the outgoing Q7, yet Audi says that the new model features more than €5,000 extra equipment as standard.
If you must have a Q7 before autumn arrives, you can choose between the 272hp diesel and 333hp petrol models in SE, SE Business or S line specifications. SE Business prices start at €77,375, featuring luxury features such as the 'virtual cockpit' dashboard. S line additional equipment includes LED headlights, with pricing starting at €79,875. New 18-inch alloy wheels are available on the SE, while SE Business and S line versions upgrade to a 19-inch and 20-inch wheel respectively.
The Audi Q7 has also shed weight - it is now 325kg lighter than before thanks to advancements in Audi's 'Ultra' technology, meaning the 218hp model can achieve 5.7 litres/100km fuel consumption with emissions of 149g/km making for an annual tax bill of €390.
When does it arrive?
Prospective buyers will be able to inspect the new Q7 in person ahead of availability as part of a nationwide dealership roadshow, from 14 May to 29 June.
