2025 Audi Q7, SQ7 Fully Revealed for U.S. Market
The 2025 Audi Q7 and SQ7 soldier on with a handful of updates inside and out, which aim to keep it fresh in a competitive segment.
Several weeks ago, Audi revealed the refreshed Q7 and SQ7 for Europe, giving Americans a sneak peek of sorts. Now, however, the German brand has followed that up with an unveiling for the U.S. versions of both the 2025 Audi Q7 and SQ7 – confirming that the updated SUVs will in fact arrive for the 2025 model year, and they’ll do so bearing a few exterior styling updates, interior revisions, new options and features, and some other changes that aim to keep the oft-refreshed second-generation model, well, fresh in a competitive marketplace.
Those changes start up front, where the 2025 Audi Q7 features a revised grille with vertical inlays and a revised contour, new color-framed air intakes, reworked front and rear bumper covers coupled with a new lower spoiler, and standard Matrix-design LED headlights with a DRL signature. Opting for the Q7 55 or SQ7 nets customers an available HD Matrix-design LED headlight with Audi Laser light, too. In the rear, the 2025 Audi Q7 features a reshaped diffuser and new functional exhaust tips, while three new exterior color options are available – Sakhir Gold Metallic, Ascari Blue Metallic, and Chili Red Metallic – coupled with five new wheel designs.
The 2025 Audi SQ7 gets some updates on the outside as well, which include a redesigned front spoiler and rear diffuser, quad exhaust tips, larger front air intakes, and newly available headlights featuring digital daytime running elements providing four unique light signatures, plus digitalized OLED (organic light emitting diode) rear taillights with four digital light signatures.
Inside the cabin, Audi has made a few tweaks to the 2025 Q7 that include new contrast stitching and an available Executive package, while the SQ7 gains standard Carbon twill matte decorative inlays, along with the Audi Sport Express Red package that adds a host of red elements to the interior. Perhaps the biggest news comes in the form of tech, however – the 2025 Audi Q7 and SQ7 can now take advantage of third-party apps from the likes of Spotify, Amazon Music, and YouTube directly in the infotainment screen.
Powertrains remain unchanged for the new model year, meaning that the 2025 Audi Q7 45 gets a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine making 261 horsepower, while the Q7 55 features a 335 horsepower turbocharged 3.0-liter V6, and the SQ7 is equipped with the twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 churning out 500 horsepower. All three engines are mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission and the Quattro all-wheel-drive system.
In terms of pricing, the 2025 Audi Q7 45 starts out at $60,500, followed by the Q7 55 at $65,800 and SQ7 at $90,800, all without destination and delivery charges included. The new SUVs are already on their way to U.S. dealerships, so it won’t be much longer before we see the refreshed Q7 and SQ7 in the flesh, too.
