Q7 Buying Advice?
Hi
I am new here and am looking closely at getting a new Audi Q7 (never had an Audi before). I am in Ottawa, Canada. I'm probably looking at the V6 in the mid-tier Progressive configuration with three definite(?) options to start: * Driver Assistance Plus package, * Dynamic Ride package, and * Towing Package with 7 Pin Adapter (I have a utility trailer). But I would appreciate any thoughts on other options (or comments on above options):
Anyone know if they planned changes are worth waiting for? I read there will be a new aluminum body construction that will save hundreds of pounds, sounds like some big changes!? But not sure if that is speculation or definite yet! Thanks, -S. |

Loss of wieght was for the current generation and does not change, 2020 gets turbo motor, touch screen dash, loss of exhaust outlets and other cost cutting items...there is lots of info on that in this forum...search is your friend :) Thanks, -S. |

Excellent, thanks for the quick answers!
Dont be fooled by the uninformed. I find it hilarious that someone thinks no exhaust outlets is cost cutting. Many manufacturers have gone the way of no visible exhaust the past few years. I was not a fan initially but it makes sense. Less to worry about tarnishing and less to clean. For someone who has gone with an aftermarket exhaust of many of his previous cars it also benefits in not having to align and realign the tips until their perfect. |

FWIW, I have the 20s, yes the car looks a little better but I wish I had more tire options and I think the Xenon's create better visibility, I've had both.

As for the MY 2020. You can seat in Q8 inside and it will give you an idea how the 2020 models will look inside. Outside changes are not that drastic. So you can decide yourself which car you like better. Also I'm confused why you are not going for the technik model for MY 2019. The difference is 3k but it adds a lot of luxury features (Led headlight, Interior Lighting plus, B&O sound system. rear sunshades, bigger wheels and wider tires)
