Apparently, very accurate renders.

It looks very good.

It’s very youthful.

I’m glad though I picked up my ‘19 Stormtrooper.

Looks nice. Still hate the fake exhausts.

Mercedes tried that fake exhaust on the GL and GLE and quickly changed that out a year later or so. Best to learn from other’s mistakes. It’s better to just have nothing there.

This Q7 looks like a completely different vehicle and the renders make it look smaller. Like a Q5 sized vehicle. But these are renders.

It will slot in very nicely with the line up. Not in love with the over hanging rear and lights. I think the arrow design for both front and rear are a stunning design que and wish those actually evolved across the enter offerings originally.

One thing certain is that the current Q7 will be unique in its own way and retains that odd Bentley stance which IMO looks very good.

I am an old Saab owner from the 80s and felt the current Q7 was in line with that extremely unique design style. Even had a Saab SPG and what a great looking and driven car that was in its time!

The mid-cycle has become 100% pedestrian.

Wonder if it will have matrix capable headlamps á la Q8.

So I was at a dealer yesterday and was told that the outside will change, but the refresh will not include the MMI system.

Is this true that the MMI system will not change for the 20 year?

Considering the interior pictures already leaked months ago with the new MMI, I would say dealership has no clue what they are talking about. As an example mine was adement that there wasn't going to be a refresh in 2020 back in December.

Isn't matrix headlights already an option in Europe for Q7? From the pictures it looks like it will get all the new tech in Q8 including matrix lights, LIDAR etc. Unfortunately for the current Q8 in US, the LIDAR was mostly useless since it seemed to be in use only for intersection collision detection. I am hoping in the newer models they will use it for more autonomous driving and make the 15 second auto pilot time longer in stop & go traffic.

I didn’t know the Q8 matrix was approved for US.

i wouldn’t believe much that came out of the mouth of a salesman. As someone stated above leaked photos came out months ago that show the Q7 will have the updated interior.

Compared to the competition it is looking old/unimpressive. The X7 is absolutely beautiful.. the Q7 you can barely pick it in a crowd.
