The Audi Q7 was never really known for its lightness and fuel efficiency, but it looks like things might be steering in this direction judging by the impressive new 2016 Q7. Weighing less by 716.5 pounds when compared to its predecessor, the newest Audi Q7 is the lightest car in its class presently, as it tips the scales at just 4,398 pounds.
Consequently, its 2.0-liter TFSI engine, which boasts 252 horsepower, requires 26% less fuel, and fuel efficiency is always a welcomed addition. Even though it will be narrower and shorter, this car will flaunt extra interior space as well as a few impressive safety-orientated features such as an exit warning that alerts the user of any approaching vehicles before opening the door. Other examples include an active cruise control system with traffic-jam assist that can take over the car’s steering during tough traffic.
According to preference, future owners of this stunning Audi will be able to choose between a 5-seat or 7-seat interior layout. As expected, this elegant ride will become available for purchase for the first time in Germany, and it will feature a relatively steep price tag of $76,000.
