A $2,400 technology package consists of a rearview camera with rear acoustic parking system, Audi side assist that monitors the vehicles blind spots, Advanced key keyless entry and vehicle start system, and voice control.

Stand alone options on the Q7 4.2 quattro include 3-panel Panorama sunroof, 19 or 20-inch alloy wheels, 4-zone automatic climate control including rear control panel, upgraded 6,600 pound towing capacity, satellite radio, and DVD navigation. Sold order options include, adaptive air suspension, Audi’s latest generation of adaptive cruise control (delayed introduction) and Audi side assist.

the american market is really getting a good deal in terms of pricing. 49k USD is about what i paid for the t-reg V6 in 04.

Ya, that's a bit odd, I wonder what they will do with Touareg pricing in the U.S. once the Q7 is released.

Expect a fully loaded 4.2 Q7 to cost around $60,000 (including destination charge). That seams about right for its class, and properly positioned a bit above the already premium quality VW.

As with Audi's other models, the Q7 is definitly a good deal when compared to a similarly powered BMW or Porsche .

I predict huge sale numbers in the US market. :D

I hope so, Audi needs a little boost in NA.

The pricing is very predictable... on par with the ML500, and a little less than the X5 4.4i. Probably a good position for Audi.

You can say that again... the 4.2 is priced at €103,000 in Finland. I don't expect to see too many...

:t-hair:


Besides cars already being cheaper here... it's all about volume.

SUVs do not sell as much in Europe, while they do in NA, so they are cheaper here. One might might say though that they would sell more in Europe if they were cheaper... hence the catch 22.

That's about what I would have expected it to cost here, or perhaps 95k max... that would have been in line with the competition. The diesel is much more reasonably priced at 76k which is about the same as the X5 3.0d and ML320 CDI (and lessthan a Touareg 3.0 TDI :t-crazy2: ).

Yannis, do you know when is Audi Hellas going to announce the price? I'm pretty interested in that specific prising. Many many people choose an SUV here in Greece (just for "being in" reason i guess).

If I ever bought these German SUVs, I'd make sure that they have a diesel. A Q7 with the 4.0 liter diesel sounds much better than the petrol one.

Those orange corners are hideous, why must they change that for us Americans. On every Audi they look unattractive and out of place :t-banghea , they seem to make it look cheap in a way.
Hopefully they will be as easy to remove or replace as they were on past Audi models.
