Re: Grade the new Audi Q7 V12 TDI

I gave it a four. In my opinion the weakest point of the regular Q7 is the front styling, and the V12 version addresses that particular aspect quite nicely. Nevertheless, I'm not falling head over heels in love with the design, maybe when I see it in the metal.
The technical side is of course very impressive, and if I had the money to buy a luxury SUV (and the need for one...) this just might be the one I'd choose.

4 of 5 from me. The only weak point (imo) is it's size and weight... But everything else is for

Re: Grade the new Audi Q7 V12 TDI

I voted good, I love the engine, but I don't really like the design of the Q7, love the interior, hate the exterior!

BTW, if this engine was put into the S8s body, i would definately give it a 5!!

Re: Grade the new Audi Q7 V12 TDI

5 - Amazing, fantastic
Audi Vorsprung - Last Generation "You" Drive

And I love it - The Q7 looks so god in "real Life"
I don't think these pic's are nice at all, but I know in real life
- the Q7 is mind blowing. And the Engine is the new world rotation.

It's a proof that Audi is giving it all before next generation cars comes out.

Flyingcars, cars driven by water, bat, wee-wee cars, cars driving by them selvs, and all the others...
cause that's the way it's supposed to go, car's that dosen't kill the enviroment and so people can't crash.

Re: Grade the new Audi Q7 V12 TDI

I gave it a 5 out of 5. The engine is out of this world and the looks also. If there is such thing as "the best SUV in the world" then it can't get any closer than this.

Re: Grade the new Audi Q7 V12 TDI

I gave it a four.

The engine is great. It cannot be better. And noone can deny it!
But the design is not something i would die for! I don't say it's ugly, since i like it a lot, but there are some details, like the crome rims, the LED fog lights and some other that make me think twice. Off course, these details is not something so important to make me not buy the car, if i could afford it. But it is a reason that i didn't give the car 5 stars.

Other than that, there are some important things that directed me to 4. The fact that it is an SUV, its size and that a car has to combine many more things into one are the rest of the reasons.

PS. I would give 5 stars to a car not very easy!

Re: Grade the new Audi Q7 V12 TDI

5/5 for me. What I really appreciate is how Audi has gone the direction of M, using distinct body panels to make the vehicle appear more aggressive.

Sure, it isn't a featherweight, but how could it be? This is how the Q7 looked in our imagination, and the crazy V12 setup is now something that Audi "owns." This doesn't feel like them trying to one-up the compeition, this is something that's original Audi material.

Re: Grade the new Audi Q7 V12 TDI

Excellent work from Audi's engineers! I give it 4 but an A8 V12 TDI would've got 5 from me. I bet it will take some time before BMW and Mercedes will introduce their competing engines...
