How has the Audi SQ7 evolved since release?
To date, there have only been 2 generations of the SUV SQ7. Yet the words big and bold seem to encapsulate both the 2016 and the 2019 version.
In fact, the Audi SQ7 2019 is all about a combination of the most substantial Audi SUV chassis and their biggest diesel engine.
Under the hood, you will find a meaty V8 turbo diesel fitted with an electric compressor and turbochargers for good measure. You can also expect a mighty 435 hp, with a 0-62 mph acceleration in 4.8 seconds. Which for such a large vehicle is not too shabby at all.
It's not just the guts under the hood that make the 2019 SQ7 version so unique either. In fact, the exterior aesthetics are pretty impressive as well. Look out for the black octagon grill with air inlets on either side at the front. While at the back, you will find not 2 but 4 oval exhausts!
The earlier 2016 model differs from the 2019 iteration in several ways. Firstly it was a trailblazer when it came to high-performance diesel vehicles specially designed for use on the road.
Additionally, the styling of the 2016 SQ7 is based on the Q7 and was deliberately crafted to let others on the road know the power that engine packs. Although those looking for a 2016 used SQ7 model should note that the 4.0 TDI engine featuring is the same as the 2019 model and comes with the turbochargers and electric compressor too.
