From Ingolstadt, with Love

Audi, the German manufacturer of luxury vehicles with its roots in Ingolstadt, Bavaria, has just A updated its largest SUV. The Q7 was first introduced in 2007, and the second generation debuted in 2015. Since then, the Q7 has been updated twice, but in its current form, it is already 10 years old, meaning it's only a matter of time before we can expect a third generation.

What's new?

The most significant differences between the latest Audi Q7 and the model updated in 2020 can be seen at the front and rear, with redesigned bumpers to accommodate new lights. Audi introduced LEDs as standard in 2020, which is still the case with the new model, but you can now opt for digital OLED rear lights (R23 000) and high-definition LED headlights with laser beams (R19 500) if the standard lights don't feel modern enough for your taste.
