AutoBild: Audi Q7 vs BMW X5 vs Porsche Cayenne


Audi Q7 4.2 FSI vs BMW X5 4.4i vs Porsche Cayenne S

Summary:

Q7 won the comparission due to offering best interior space, best engine, best brakes, best warranty, lowest price.

But the X5 & Cayenne still offer more sporty driving - specially due to their more compact size. Testers find Q7 to big to allow agressive sporty driving - ESP is also too protective, not allowing sporty driving. Although Q7 is very nice to drive - surprisingly good driving stability despite the car's huge size.

Or maybe even the GL? There should be a heat-to-head test of the Q7 and GL coming soon.

You are right.

Seeing the three cars in the pic it's amazing how fresh and up to date the X5 looks next to the two younger vehicles. That explains why sales are still so good. BMW had set the benchmark so high that it was very hard for it's rivals to beat it.

Indeed! They did a great job with their SUV just like with E46; after so many years and new competition it still rocks and i'm sooo about that!

Well in the X5 case, it was the first SUV to trully deserve an S from Sport.
Ofcourse it put sportness in but not off-road capabilities.
But who really drives an X5 off-road ?!

lol...X5 is so close, it will be hilarious to see the next X5 against those two cars.

One little year to go dear beloved X5. You have done beyond anyone's expectations.
