The Audi Q7 2010 can be ordered from this week. The Q7 which shares its platform with the Porsche Cayenne and Volkswagen Touareg has come in a new refreshing look.
The latest Q7 range has a new 3.0-litre TDI engine incorporating the clean diesel technology uses an AdBlue additive to eradicate virtually all harmful nitrous oxides from emissions, and already meets stringent EU6 emissions applicable from 2014. Like the rest of the engine range, including 3.6 FSI V6 and 4.2 FSI V8 direct injection petrol units and 4.2 TDI V8 and 6.0 TDI diesels, the new 3.0-litre TDI unit is backed up by a new energy recovery system which helps to reduce CO2 emissions by up to 5g/km. During braking and coasting phases the system converts mechanical energy into electric energy via the alternator and stores it within the battery to reduce the load on the engine.
All engines transmit their power via a six-speed tiptronic automatic transmission. A redesigned front grille, restyled bumpers incorporating new under-body protectors, new door mouldings and distinctive new LED rear lights embellish the Audi Q7 from its older versions. Hoping for the car to come to India soon.
