The Automotive Press Heaps Praise As Car Dealers Watch The Fly

The automotive press has great things to say about the 2019 Audi Q7. Kelley Blue Book wrote: "As Audi's flagship luxury SUV, the 3-row/7-passenger 2019 Q7 is perfectly positioned to challenge rivals like the Acura MDX, Infiniti QX60 and Lincoln Aviator. Although its styling remains on the subtle side, the Q7 is brimming with high-tech features and possesses one of the most handsome interiors in its class."

The 2019 Audi Q7 is offered in three trim levels, listed as Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige. Powering the Premium and Premium Plus trims is a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine developing 248 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. According to Audi, this block can get the Q7 from zero to 60 mpg in almost seven seconds. Standard on the Prestige trim and available on the others is a 3.0-liter V6 generating 329 hp and 325 lb.-ft. of torque, also joined to the eight-speed automatic.

There's plenty of towing power on tap. While the 2.0-liter engine has a maximum towing capacity of 4,400 pounds, the V6 can handle up to 7,700 pounds.

Monterey Car Dealers Are Proud Of The Audi Q7

Even the base Premium trim comes with a long list of standard features including leather upholstery, tri-zone climate control, heated front seats, a power-folding third-row seat, a power tailgate, a panoramic sunroof, a navigation system, a 7-inch center display, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Music lovers will enjoy the standard 10-speaker audio system, which features Bluetooth, a USB jack and an SD card input.

Safety features that come standard include Audi's pre sense and pre sense city systems. Audi pre sense uses sensors to detect extreme braking or skidding. It can then activate the hazard lights, close the sunroof and the side windows, and tensions the front seatbelts. The pre sense city setup monitors the road using the windshield's front camera. If the system detects a possible collision with another vehicle or a pedestrian, it alerts the driver and can apply the automatic emergency braking system, if needed, even initiating a complete stop.

Audi engineers its vehicles to keep the driver and passengers safe in the event of a collision. The 2019 Audi Q7 received the highest rating of five stars in overall crash testing by the NHTSA.
