NEW Q7 picture
#101
not that i am aware of... two six cylinder offerings (one diesel) and an eight cylinder. then there is the X5M50D is a 381hp/740tq high output diesel (X5M40D as well) which i believe is what the SQ7 (?) is going after with the twin turbo six cylinder diesel that is planned. BMW offers a four cylinder diesel here (and other markets) in the f31 3series.

news to me. just looked it up and you're right. first i am hearing of it. stumbled upon a review by top gear and this was the final comment:
"Interesting but not the X5 we'd have. It's not even the large SUV to have. Not BMW's finest hour."
lol. seems nobody is happy with the recent changes in the german lineup.

no arguments here, the whole thing confuses me as well. i am looking at this oil price war as a temporary tax relief for the end user. enjoy it while you can before things stabilize and go back to where they normally would be.

The curb weight of the new q7 is very close to the current q5.
So it's not like the 2.0 q5 doesn't fly off Audi lots. It's one of the most popular cars and engines on the market.
So with a bump to 252hp and 273 torque, the 2.0 Q7 should be just as quick as a 2.0 Q5. ....or very close

I personally like it a lot...one thing that always seems to happen when a new model comes out
the majority of the original owners of the previous gen. dislike the new design. I saw a lot of negative comments when we bought our first Q7 back in Dec. 2006 and now it has turned out to be an incredible success with the Audi selling more Q7's later in it's life cycle than when it was first announced. I attribute this to Audi's design growing on more people and Audi becoming a bigger player in the marketplace
A new design means change and most people don't like change. I think once people see this in person and on the road, the design will take on better acceptance. Sometimes, people just need to get used to something new...and since Audi's designs tend to be more of a sophisticated design language they do not have the same impact in the marketplace as a very dramatic and short term design does.

...as for me, the wife and I have already made plans to do euro delivery in August 2016 for a 2017 model :-)
