The Audi Q7 brings the new design language of the Audi brand to the premium SUV segment. Its elegant styling represents power and presence and relays its dynamism and sportiness. Flowing forms create a body of moving surfaces, which appears sculpture-like even when standing still.

The Audi Q7 is a new breed of SUV. The first representatives of this vehicle category were angular beasts with a strictly off-road character. These were followed by the first premium SUVs, with a design clearly oriented towards on-road capabilities. In contrast, the Audi Q7 is a third-generation performance SUV. It combines the best features from both worlds and reflects this in its design. Its exterior is as much a reflection of superior sportiness as it is of the robustness required of a powerful off-roader.

A strong personality such as the Audi Q7 convinces with its attention to detail. The front is dominated by the striking, practically vertical single-frame grille – a clear indication of the powerful engine installed behind. With its slim chrome frame and rib structure, the grille has a marked three-dimensional effect – the horizontal ribs protrude slightly to emphasize the horizontal lines, the vertical lines are set back slightly. On either side of the grille, wide headlights reach far into the fender, their light tubes visible behind clear-glass covers. In addition to the standard halogen lights, Bi-Xenon headlights and the dynamic cornering adaptive light are available.

Sporty and robust


The engine compartment lid has a distinctive V-shape to underline the sporty character of the Audi Q7, whereas the dominant shape of the bumper emphasises its robustness and stability. The lower section is color-contrasted. This visual differentiation – further accentuated by the contrasting paintwork option – clearly highlights the versatility of the vehicle. The Audi Q7 looks powerful and long: with regard to its ratio of length to width to height it boasts the sportiest proportions in its class. These proportions are harmonious and at the same time striking. High side panels lend the vehicle body a muscular appearance, contrasting with the flat sporty window area.

The free-flowing surfaces create the impression of a sculpture. Broad curves and seams intensify
this effect as does the play of light and shade on the concave and convex surfaces. The elegant dynamic line running above the wheel arches and the strong high shoulder section lend the design an athletic character.
