The new Audi Q7 – A bolder design and enhanced performance

The Audi Q7 45 TFSI quattro is the brand’s flagship SUV, featuring cutting-edge technologies and a pioneering design in its segment. It was also the first SUV that Audi introduced to global customers back in 2005. After nearly two decades of development, the Audi Q7 has become a benchmark design and a foundation for the brand’s expansion into other SUV lines.

The new Q7 exudes a sense of vigor and elegance. Its design language emphasizes simplicity, particularly in the exterior details, and the iconic Audi Singleframe grille, which distinguishes between the standard and S line variants. The standard wheel design has been upgraded to a 20-inch size, up from the previous 19-inch, giving this 7-seater SUV a more imposing stance.

One of the most notable features of the Audi Q7 in Vietnam is its standard LED Matrix headlight cluster with a modern graphic design. This provides precise and high-resolution illumination while reducing glare for oncoming and preceding vehicles. The redesigned taillights, combined with the LED Matrix headlights, ensure that the Audi Q7 stands out wherever it goes.

The interior of the Audi Q7 seamlessly blends ergonomic design with modern technology. Every detail is carefully crafted to provide maximum comfort while showcasing the brand’s class and style. The standard Audi Virtual Cockpit delivers intuitive and vibrant information, keeping the driver well-informed during their journey.

The S line variant offers additional premium options, including Valcona leather-upholstered sports seats with embossed “S” logos, a sports steering wheel, aluminum inlays with a matte brushed finish, a head-up display, and illuminated “S” logo door sill trims.

The Audi Q7 45 TFSI quattro is equipped with a 4-cylinder inline turbocharged gasoline engine that delivers a maximum output of 252 horsepower and 370 Nm of torque. This is paired with an 8-speed Tiptronic transmission and Audi’s legendary quattro all-wheel drive system. As a result, the Audi Q7 45 TFSI can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.3 seconds, reaching a top speed of 230 km/h.

As is customary, Audi also offers customization options to meet individual preferences and needs. Owners can personalize their Q7 with choices ranging from exterior colors, trim packages, and wheel designs.

The new Audi Q8 – Where sports coupe meets SUV refinement

Introduced to the global market in 2018, later than the Q7 (2005), the Audi Q8 55 TFSI quattro continues to captivate enthusiasts and conquer key markets, including Vietnam. With its sports coupe design and the versatility of an SUV, the Audi Q8 embodies the brand’s philosophy of “Vorsprung durch Technik” (Advancement through Technology).

The Q8 55 TFSI quattro is equipped with the dynamic S line package as standard. This is evident in the Singleframe grille, now featuring a distinctive L-shaped water droplet design. Combined with the elegant black styling package, the Q8’s exterior details are finished with dark surfaces, accentuating its muscular presence. The standard LED Matrix headlights incorporate the latest lighting technology, optimizing safety and ensuring the SUV stands out on the road.

The Audi Q8’s sporty character is further emphasized by its performance figures and engine specifications. It is powered by a 3.0L V6 turbocharged engine with mild-hybrid 48V technology, delivering a total output of 340 horsepower and 500 Nm of torque.

This technology not only saves energy during coasting but also provides instant power when the driver needs to overtake, ensuring smooth and efficient performance. The SUV also features an 8-speed Tiptronic transmission and Audi’s legendary quattro all-wheel drive system, now enhanced with a central differential lock. These upgrades enable the Audi Q8 55 TFSI quattro to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.6 seconds, reaching a top speed of 250 km/h.

Inside, the Audi Q8 boasts a 12.3-inch digital Audi Virtual Cockpit with multiple customizable interfaces, displaying all the necessary information for the driver. A 360-degree camera, now standard on the Q8, enhances convenience and safety, whether navigating through city streets or embarking on long journeys. The upper 10.1-inch touchscreen controls the infotainment system, while the lower 8.6-inch display manages climate control and other convenience functions. Users can quickly and intuitively activate features with audio and haptic feedback, providing a satisfying and responsive experience.

The Audi Q8 in Vietnam will now come standard with a head-up display (HUD) and USB-C charging ports for both the front and rear passengers. Additionally, the SUV is equipped with the latest driver assistance and safety systems, such as lane departure warning and Audi pre-sense. It’s no surprise that the Audi Q8 achieved a 5-star rating in the stringent Euro NCAP safety tests.

As a special treat for customers, Audi Vietnam is offering LED entry lights as standard, projecting the iconic four-ring Audi logo onto the ground when the doors open. Additionally, a wireless smartphone charging pad will be standard on the Audi Q8 in Vietnam for the first time. This allows for seamless Bluetooth connectivity for music and calls while keeping the device charged. These features are typically optional, but Audi Vietnam has included them as standard equipment to enhance the ownership experience.
