New Audi Q7 with aluminium inlays launched in Malaysia

Teased by Audi Malaysia since October, the new Audi Q7 is now officially launched. We have for now a sole variant, the 3.0 TFSI quattro, priced at RM589,900. The second-generation large SUV was first revealed last December, before making its show debut at the season opening 2015 NAIAS show in Detroit.

The Typ 4M replaces the original Q7 that had a fruitful 10-year lifespan. The old car’s substantial size stood out, and this one is no less imposing; although at 5,050mm long and 1,970 mm wide, it’s slightly shorter (37 mm) and narrower (15 mm) than the SUV it replaces. The 2,990 mm wheelbase is also marginally (12 mm) shorter than before.

Despite the slightly smaller footprint, Audi claims a longest in class and more headroom thanks to better packaging. The seven-seater’s boot volume is 770 litres, expandable to 1,955 litres with seats folded.

For trim, the new machine packs in upper inlays in brushed aluminium and lower inlays in an anodised finish. The door sills get aluminium inlays, too. In the safety department, one will find eight airbags, a tyre pressure loss indicator, Isofix mounts and hill descent control, in addition to the usual ESC, ASR, EDL, ABS and EBD. The new Audi Q7 3.0 TFSI quattro is priced at RM589,900 on-the-road without insurance.
