Audi Q7
You wouldn’t be wrong to think of the Q7 as the model that established Audi in India. The large, seven-seat luxury SUV had all the ingredients India’s elite wanted, and this second-gen model on sale since 2015 offers more of the same, albeit in a more refined package. The Audi Q7 is available in India in petrol-auto and diesel-auto forms.

Audi Q7 Quick Review
While the second-gen Q7 looks sharp and athletic, some might find it lacks the visual mass of the former model. However, there's not much to fault in the Q7’s cabin: it’s tastefully done, feels airy and is easy to get into and out of too. Unfortunately, the impression from the third row is not quite as nice. The seating position is awkward and occupants will also have to share space with the spare wheel that’s oddly positioned inside the cabin.
The Audi Q7’s 251hp, 2.0-litre four-cylinder, turbo-petrol engine works well in easygoing driving. However, when you want a quick overtake, the engine gets buzzy and you can tell it’s out of its comfort zone. On the other hand, the 249hp, 3.0 V6 diesel is just brilliant. Refinement is superb and there's serious reserves of power at all times as well. The Audi Q7’s standard-fit air suspension ably shields you from the surface beneath, but the ride at high speeds isn’t quite as flat as you’d like. It’s not engaging in its handling either but the light steering makes the Q7 easy to drive in town.
