Audi has unveiled a new Q7 crossover with unusual headlights

Audi has introduced the third-generation Q7 crossover, which is the first generation change for this model since 2015. The suv received technological options and an interior with three screens and a minimum of buttons. The German company's press service shared details about the new product on June 9. Production of the model will begin at the plant in Bratislava, the first deliveries are scheduled for September, the price in Germany starts from €87.9 thousand.

The new Audi Q7 has matrix lighting technology, which is designed to improve road safety through projection. For example, it duplicates turn signals on the asphalt and warns other road users about opening doors.

In the interior of the crossover, there are three OLED screens on the front panel, including the passenger one, and the number of physical keys is minimized. The large panoramic roof has a dimming adjustment function. A Bang & Olufsen audio system with 4D sound consists of 22 speakers, including built-in headrests. The interior can be two- or three-row.

The parking system can store up to five maneuvers up to 200 m long each and park independently in reverse on sections up to 50 m long. In addition, if the driver's condition monitoring function detects that he has become ill, the car can take control, stop on the side of the road on its own and call emergency services.

In the European market, the engine range includes a three-liter turbodiesel with a starter generator in two versions — with a capacity of 245 hp (500 Nm) or 299 hp (630 Nm). The engine is powered by an eight-speed "automatic", the drive is full. In the USA, the range includes a 326-horsepower 2.9-liter V6, which accelerates the crossover from zero to 100 km/h in 4.8 seconds, and a four-liter 600 hp V8, with which the sports version of the SQ7 performs the same exercise in 3.7 seconds.

In addition, the Audi Q7 has a fully-controlled chassis, pneumatic elements and adaptive shock absorbers in more expensive trim levels. The suspension can use route data to adapt to obstacles, such as railway crossings, and reduce ground clearance to facilitate boarding and disembarking.
