Owner Reviews
An Audi is reliable, safe, and comfortable.
Audi q7 is in and standing SUV. It needs very little repair or maintenance. The gas mileage runs about 25 miles per gallon. We have very little if any repairs on your vehicle. The engine runs wonderfully. It seats seven individuals, but the back can be used to haul large items. Safety is excellent in the q7. Everything is made of high-quality materials, things are not wearing out quickly like on our previous domestic vehicles.
Very reliable SUV with lots of room.
The Audi q7 is extremely reliable and safe. It seats seven passengers. It can haul and tow assuming you have the towing package. The oil changes are only every 5, 000 miles. The maintenance is very low. It has a lot of power and torque. The seats are durable and made of leather, so you do get a little hot in the summer.
That It's easy to drive (easy to steer, good view on traffic around you)
It's spacious, good view egen driving, easy to drive, very good navigation system because It's easy to use. Easy to pull The 6th and 7th Seat up or Down. Love The Big roof window. No complaints
