Overview[edit]
The Q7 (internally designated Typ 4L) utilizes a modified version of
the
Volkswagen

Volkswagen Group PL71 platform. Previewed by the
Audi

Audi Pikes Peak
quattro concept car, the Q7 is designed more for on-road use, and was
not meant for serious off-road use where a transfer case is needed. In
an off-road test through the Australian outback it fared well for a
"soft roader",[citation needed].[7]
Although it lacks a low-range transfer case, it has quattro permanent
four-wheel drive system with a central locking differential, and a
self-levelling air suspension with Continuous Damping Control, called
Adaptive air suspension, which helps in off-road situations.
Development began in 2002 under the code AU 716, primarily focused on
the Pikes Peak Concept. Design work was frozen for the Concept in July
2002, for presentation at the North American International Auto Show
in January 2003. Following the introduction of the concept, full-scale
development began on Typ 4L of the PL71 platform.
The production design was frozen in late 2003, for a late 2005 start
of production. Prototypes went into testing in 2004, with development
concluding in the first half of 2005. It introduced the world's only
series production passenger car
V12 TDI

V12 TDI diesel engine. While the Q7
has been the flagship

SUV in Audi's product portfolio, a new
top-of-the-line model, which is likely to be called the
Audi

Audi Q8, is on
the cards. It debuted in its concept form at the 2017 Detroit Auto
Show.

Safety[edit]
Audi

Audi Q7 3.0 TDI quattro (Australia; pre-facelift)
Despite its multiple airbags and safety electronics, such as
Electronic Stability Programme (ESP), the Q7 scored only four stars
out of five () in the
Euro NCAP

Euro NCAP crash test for adult occupant
protection.[10] According to Audi, this was caused by a design error,
and has since been fixed in cars manufactured after the test which
should allegedly lead to five stars. Official tests to prove this
remain to be done as of March 2009.
However, in the United States, the Q7 received five out of five stars
() from the
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
safety test for both front and side impacts.[citation needed] The
Insurance Institute for Highway Safety

Insurance Institute for Highway Safety awarded the Q7 its Top Safety
Pick 2009, with Good ratings in all 14 measured categories of the
front and side impact test.[11]
The 2015 Q7 has a rollover risk of 18.5%.[12]

Q7 hybrid (2005)[edit]
The Q7 hybrid was a concept vehicle using the engine from the 4.2 FSI
with an electric motor to provide 200 N⋅m (150 lb⋅ft)
extra torque, and nickel-metal hydride battery. It has
0–100 km/h acceleration of 6.8s. The vehicle weighs
2,410 kg (5,310 lb), 140 kg (310 lb) heavier than
the petrol counterpart.
The vehicle was unveiled at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor Show.[16]
Audi

Audi reportedly was going to introduce a hybrid version of the Q7
sometime in the future.[17] However, the low US dollar caused
Audi

Audi to
drop the plans for the US market, but stated limited quantities would
be available for the commercial market.[18] Audi's research and
development chief, Michael Dick, later announced Q7 hybrid would be
produced in limited numbers for test purposes only and that
development work would focus on a more advanced lithium-ion
battery-based hybrid system for the Q5.[19]
Q7 3.0 TDI clean diesel (2007)[edit]
The Q7 3.0 TDI clean diesel is a version of 3.0 V6 TDI with selective
catalytic reduction. The engine was later used in the next generation
of the Q7 for the European market. The 3.0-litre TDI S line can go
from 0–60 mph in 8.4 seconds and has a top speed of
134 mph.[20]
US models of the 2009

Audi R10
TDI race car, though both engines are completely unrelated: the bore /
stroke / angle of the blocks are different and they do not share a
single component . The only twelve-cylinder diesel engine used in any
passenger car, it was rated at 500 PS (370 kW; 490 hp)
and 1,000 N⋅m (740 lb⋅ft). This gives the vehicle a
0–100 km/h acceleration time of 5.5 seconds. The Q7

Lawsuit on the use of the letter Q[edit]
In early 2005,
Nissan

Nissan North America Inc. filed a lawsuit against Audi
over the use of the letter "Q" as a model name.[30]
Audi

Audi is using the "Q" for the designation of their quattro four-wheel
drive system, used in production cars for over twenty-five years
(Audi's quattro trademark is actually an umbrella term for several
types of four wheel drive systems developed by Torsen, Haldex Traction
AB, and Borg-Warner, the latter being used in the Q7). Nissan's
Infiniti

Infiniti marque had been using Q as the name for passenger cars (the
Q50) and QX for SUVs (the QX50 and QX70) since 2013.
A settlement between
Audi AG

Audi AG and
Nissan

Nissan was reached in late 2006. The
agreement stipulates that
Audi

Audi will only use the Q-prefix for THREE
models, the Q3, Q5 and the Q7.

Audi

Audi Q7 was unveiled in January 2015 at the
North American International Auto Show

North American International Auto Show in Detroit.[35] The diesel- and
petrol-powered versions were released for retail sales in 2015,
followed shortly by diesel-powered plug-in hybrid variant, which is
sold in Europe and will be available in the U.S.[36] but not in
Canada.[37]
The plug-in hybrid, called the Q7 e-tron TDI Quattro, is powered by a
3.0 TDI V6 turbodiesel engine mated with an electric motor-generator
placed in the 8-speed automatic gearbox to provide a maximum output
power of 190 kW (250 hp) and a maximum torque of
600 N⋅m (440 lbf⋅ft) four-wheel drive.[38] An
electronically controlled clutch can disconnect the
V6 engine

V6 engine from the
rest of the powertrain.[38] The 94 kW (126 hp) electric
motor is powered by a 17.3 kWh lithium-ion battery capable of
delivering an all-electric range of 54 to 56 km (34 to
35 mi). The Q7 e-tron produces CO2 emissions between 50 and 48
g/km, and has a fuel consumption of 1.8 to 1.9 l/100 km (160
to 150 mpg‑imp; 130 to 120 mpg‑US) under the New
European Driving Cycle (NEDC).[39] The Q7 e-tron accelerates from zero
to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in 6.2 seconds in hybrid mode, and
zero to 60 km/h (37.3 mph) in 6.5 seconds in all-electric
mode. Its top speed in hybrid mode is 230 km/h (140 mph) and
135 km/h (84 mph) in electric mode.[39]
Audi

Audi announced a Q7 e-tron TFSI at the 2015 Shanghai Motor Show,
developed specially for Asian markets (China, South Korea, Singapore
and Japan). Its 2.0 TFSI and electric motor deliver 270 kW
(367 hp) and 700 Nm (516.3 lb-ft) of system torque –
enough to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in 5.9
seconds and for a top speed of 220 km/h (136.7 mph). The
standard consumption of 2.5 liters of fuel (94.1 US mpg) corresponds
to CO2 emissions of less than 60 grams per kilometer (96.6 g/mi).
All-electric range will be up to 53 km (33 mi).[40][41]
The
Audi

Audi Q7 2.0 TFSI (1984 cc, 185 kW / 252 hp) is also
available in the Russian and Canadian market.[42]
The first units of the diesel-powered
Audi

Audi Q7 e-tron were registered
in Germany in April 2015.[43] Cumulative sales of the plug-in hybrid
in Germany totaled 344 units through April 2016.[44][45]

Predictive Efficiency Assistant uses the route data from the
navigation system to alert the driver of situations in which it would
make sense to reduce speed, such as before curves, towns or speed

cruise control (ACC) and traffic sign recognition, the system adapts
the preselected speed to the route and the speed limits. The

Matrix
LED

LED digitally controlled adaptive non-glare highbeam multi-LED
headlamps. The highbeam comprises 25 individual light-emitting diodes
per unit that can be switched on and off or dimmed individually
depending on the situation. This enables the headlight system to react
accurately to other vehicles while still brightly illuminating the
rest of the road. Additional features of the new headlights are the
intelligent cornering light, new-look daytime running lights and
dynamic turn signals. The lighting system uses predictive route data
from the navigation system to adjust the distribution of light in
response to the current driving situation. In combination with the
optional Navigation plus with MMI touch, the system recognizes route
data contained in the navigation system, such as curves and road
classifications.
cross-traffic assist up to 40 mph, and radar-assisted cruise
control at speeds up to 155.3 mph[50]
