Huge road presence, spacious interior with plenty of carrying capacity, strong performance

Limited off road, sheer size makes it tricky to park
The Q7 may be Audi's first full size 4x4 but like alternatives such as the BMW X5 and Mercedes M-Class it's firmly designed for staying on tarmac rather than tackling harsh terrain. Audi is famous for its quattro four-wheel drive system and has put its expertise to use with the Q7, however it lacks clever off road systems like the Land Rover Discovery. It's a big vehicle though and this translates into superb passenger space and seven-seats as standard while the air suspension ensures supreme comfort. It makes great family transport and it's stylish too - but it's not cheap to buy or run. In mid-2009 it was given a mild facelift while a cleaner 3.0-litre TDI was introduced.
