We brought you the first pictures of the Q7 and now Audi has taken the wraps off the second generation Q7. The Q7 is billed as being the lightest model in its class as it tips the scales at just 1995kg. This makes it approximately 325 kg lighter than its predecessor. The weight loss is all thanks to a lightweight chassis which makes extensive use of high-strength steel and aluminum.
A 71 kg diet was achieved by implementing a multi-material body design including fully aluminum doors which has shaved off 24 kg. There is a change in dimensions too as the new Q7 is 37mm shorter and 15mm narrower while the height has remained just about the same.
However, getting smaller has made the all-new Audi Q7 more spacious on the inside where there's an extra 21mm between the first and second rows of seats and an additional 41mm at the front & 23mm at the rear when it comes to headroom. Inside the new Q7 gets the Audi virtual cockpit seen on the third-gen TT and there's also the latest implementation of the MMI infotainment system with a bigger touchpad.
The dashboard is not less cluttered while Google Android Auto and Apple CarPlay support will be available. The flagship SUV will be offered with either a Bose sound system with 3D sound or a more expensive Bang & Olufsen Advanced Audio System with 3D sound and 23 speakers packing 1,920 watts of power.
