The Audi Q7 combines all the rugged energy of an SUV with the looks and high
performance of a sports coupé. As the ultimate expression of quattro®permanent
all-wheel-drive, it’s designed to take you off the beaten track and beyond – helped
by a choice of highly-developed engines. They provide acceleration not normally
associated with an SUV and efficiency that’s even more remarkable. It’s made
possible by advanced FSI®and TDI®technology, which use direct fuel injection to
make the most of every drop of fuel, and our new clean diesel technology, which
you can read more about on page 7.
But there’s more to the Audi Q7 than the raw power of its engines. It also
includes a redesigned front grille, new door mouldings and restyled bumpers
with under-body protection, while its distinctive ED lights blend seamlessly into
the new tailgate. Inside, you can now take advantage of the latest HDD navigation
and entertainment system, which is capable of displaying exceptionally-detailed,
high-resolution 3D maps. And with space for 6 passengers and up to 2,035 litres
of luggage capacity in the rear, there’s little room left for improvement.

V6 3.6 FSI and V8 4.2 FSI
All Audi Q7 petrol engines feature FSI®direct-injection – a unique Audi technology originally
developed for the e Mans 24-hour endurance race to deliver increased power and torque as
well as enhanced fuel efficiency. The way it does this is, in theory, very simple. Precisely the
right amount of fuel and air are injected directly into the combustion chambers, enabling the
engine to ‘breathe’ more easily. At the same time, electronics monitor the engine load and
adjust the injection process. The result – reduced heat-loss and increased output, with around
a 15% reduction in fuel consumption and significantly lower exhaust emissions. Ideal for the
buyer who wants a sporty, exhilarating drive without the drawbacks of excessive fuel costs or
higher emissions.
V6 3.0 TDI and V8 4.2 TDI
All diesel engines from Audi are known as TDI. This impressive technology was originally
pioneered by Audi in 1989, marking a departure from the noisy, fuel-thirsty diesel engines of the
past. ike its FSI petrol counterpart, the TDI diesel engine is designed for power and performance,
with low fuel consumption and CO2emissions. All Audi Q7 TDI engines are based on the common
rail system. Here, fuel is stored and kept at constant pressures of up to 600 bar, ready to feed a
series of highly-accurate piezo injectors, which control the rate and point of injection.
Petrol Diesel
Engin s

3.0 TDI cl an di s l
Clean and diesel. The two words may not sound like natural partners, but our advances over the
years have made it possible. The 3.0 TDI engine available in the Audi Q7 features two new
technologies – a DeNOx catalytic converter and AdBlue®tank – which help to make it one of the
cleanest-running diesel cars available today.
The AdBlue®tank contains a biodegradable additive which is injected in tiny doses upstream of
the DeNOx catalytic converter, where it breaks down harmful nitrogen oxides into plain nitrogen
and water. This cuts nitrogen oxide emissions by up to 90 percent, meaning that the Audi Q7 3.0
TDI clean diesel quattro®already complies with the EU 6 emissions standard planned for 2014.

Transmission
The 6-speed tiptronic transmission system is a form of automatic transmission standard on all
Audi Q7 models. The technology incorporates DSP – or the Dynamic Shift Programme which aligns
and converts the engine’s high power and torque into both sporty performance and operating
convenience, with crisp, fast gear changes, reduced weight and optimised gearshifting.
In the ‘D’ (Drive) and ‘S’ (Sport) programme, the advanced electronics used in tiptronic
respond efficiently to every driver input, helping to prevent unwanted gear-changes.
The driver can override automatic mode by moving the gear lever into a tiptronic shift-gate,
enabling spontaneous gear-changing for a sportier driving style.

Permanent all-wheel-drive

It’s the technology that has given Audi the edge on the racetrack ever since it was first introduced
over 25 years ago – a technology that delivers ultimate control whilst enhancing the sporty
characteristics which make the Audi Q7 so thrilling to drive. It’s called quattro®permanent
all-wheel-drive. The principle is simple: in the same way that four brakes ensure better
deceleration, four permanently-driven wheels deliver better acceleration and road-holding,
pushing or pulling
the car as needed, for a driving experience that’s both dynamic and safe. In the Audi Q7,
asymmetric-dynamic torque distribution continuously distributes drive power between the
front and the rear axles depending on weather conditions, road surface and gradient, which
increases flexibility for an enhanced, sportier drive.
