The
Audi Q7 4.2 SE uses a 345 horsepower, 4163 cc, V8 mated
to a 6-speed Tiptronic transmission. The SE specification
is standard for the 4.2 V8. It includes an exclusive 18-inch
alloy wheel design with wider 255/55 R18 tyres, bumpers
finished in a contrasting colour, additional chrome exterior
trim, full leather upholstery, heated front seats with
full electric adjustment and wood fascia inlays. Up to
seven occupants can be accommodated in the three rows
of seats. The seats in the second row are individually
adjustable for fore/aft movement, and offer the most leg-
room in this class. Both rear seat rows can be folded
flat to provide a load area of 2,035 litres if required,
without the seats having to be removed. If used as a 5-seater
the Q7 boasts a load capacity of 775 litres.
The Audi Q7 is equipped as standard with latest generation
quattro permanent four-wheel drive. Its Torsen centre
differential, which conveys power to all four wheels on-road
and off, is shared with the Audi RS 4 quattro, and features
a standard torque split of 40 : 60 (front / rear) that
helps to optimise axle load distribution for even greater
agility and steering precision.
The variable ground clearance of between 180mm and 240mm
offered by the five-mode air suspension system helps the
Audi Q7 take the rough as much in its stride as the smooth.
The off-road setting, with 205mm of clearance and adapted
damper control, is the perfect setting for cross-country
driving.
Like the acclaimed Audi A6 and A8 models, the Audi Q7
is equipped as standard with the innovative Multi Media
Interface (MMI) operating concept that controls many major
in-car functions. In the Q7 the system will be available
with a variety of new optional extras, including Audi
side assist with radar technology for lane-changing manoeuvres
and the advanced parking system with optical/acoustic
guidance and rear-view camera.
The Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) also includes
numerous new functions such as hill descent assist, a
special off-road mode that optimises brake performance
and traction on loose surfaces and a trailer stabilisation
system that reduces the risk of fishtailing by means of
targeted brake intervention.
