Audi Q7

The Audi Q7 is a full-size luxury crossover SUV showcased in Sep 2005 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Production of the Q7 started in autumn of 2005 in Bratislava, Slovakia. It's the first SUV offering from Audi. Later on Audi's 2nd SUV, the Q5 was exposed as a 2010 model.

Overview
The Q7 (internally delegated Type 4L) utilises an altered version of the Volkswagen Group PL71 platform. Based totally on the Audi Pikes Top quattro concept automobile, the Q7 is designed more for on-road use, and wasn't intended for significant off-road use where a transfer case is required. In an off road test through the Australian outback it fared well for a "soft roader". Even though it lacks a low-range transfer case, it has quattro permanent 4 wheel drive system with a central differential lock, and an adjustable-height air suspension which assists in off road circumstances.

Safety
The 2009 Audi Q7's standard safety apparatus includes antilock brakes, a stability control system with hill-descent control and rollover detection, traction control, active front head restrainers, full-length side curtain airbags and front-seat side airbags. Seat-mounted side airbags for the second row are optional. Additionally, Audi's blind-spot caution system warns the driver when another car is along the Q7's side. Optional lane aid warns the driver if the automobile drifts out of its lane.

Internal design and Special Features
Like all Audis, the Q7 ranks high in interior materials, build quality. The dash layout is driver-oriented, Audi’s MMI (on trims so provided) is comparatively easy to utilise once you have had some practice. The quantity of interior space is dependent on seating configuration; while the second row is comparatively spacious, the optional 3rd row is cramped and can only easily seat youngsters or tiny adults -- which are a little disappointing, considering the Q7's size. With the second third rows folded flat, the 2009 Audi Q7 has just 72.5 cubic feet of load space, which is unimpressive compared to other crossovers in its class.

Q7 3.0 TDI clean diesel quattro (2009- )
