Audi Q7: 2016 Price And Features For Australia

Audi's all-new Q7 large SUV has rumbled onto Australian roads this week, launching as a single-engine, single-spec offering priced from $103,900.

It's a significant price jump over the most affordable variant of the previous-generation Q7, the $91,500 3.0 TDI, however the new car's extra power, torque and slightly fatter standard equipment list should compensate for some of that impost.

And though the new 3.0 litre turbo diesel V6 that is the sole powerplant boasts more grunt than the outgoing 3.0 TDI, it also promises to be 20 percent more efficient - as well as a fair whack faster - than the model it replaces.

Powertrain

The 90-degree 3.0 litre turbo diesel V6 returns, but thanks to a new turbocharger tuning and low-friction enhancements it now pumps out 200kW of power and 600Nm of torque - the former between 3250-4250rpm, the latter between 1500-3000rpm.
