2011 Audi Q7




Audi has added new members and particularly efficient for the Q7 family. In the new Q7 V6 TDI engines are high tech. It weighs much less than 200 kilograms and extensive measures to minimize internal friction. Innovative thermal management and feature the new Audi engine is very complex. Crankcase and cylinder head has a separate circuit cooling water, air does not circulate in the block while the engine is warm.

With a gear ratio spread of 7.25:1 and a narrower torque converter that saves over 24 pounds compared to the six-speed automatic, Audi claims that fuel consumption has been reduced by four percent through the use of the new transmission alone. Included in the gearbox is a new oil cooler that gets warmed up by the engine's cooling system, boosting the tranny's temperature from a cold start and reducing drag in the transmission that much quicker.




A common-rail system with piezo injectors lightning fast and deliver up to 2,000 bar injection pressure, turbocharger and camshaft control time has been optimized for maximum efficiency. A start-stop systems switch off the machine immediately after the vehicle came to a halt, and the standard energy recovery system for all models that save energy during deceleration.

In the Q7 family, maybe this is not so surprising, as high fuel efficiency. On average, it needs 7.2 liters per 100 km (32.67 miles a gallon U.S.). And its CO2 equivalent is only 189 grams per km (304.17 grams per mile). Provide efficient TDI 150 kW (204 hp). The maximum torque becomes available just above the point of heating and remained constant 450 Nm between 1250 and 2750 rpm. This SUV can accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h (62.14 mph) in 9.1 seconds. In the version with the optional air suspension, reaching a top speed of 205 km / h (127.38 mph), with steel suspension, 202 km / h (125.52 mph).

Q7 TDI with 150 kW (204 hp) offers the same power transmission as all the other models in this car. With the new eight-speed tiptronic and efficiently with a high gear ratio as a whole and gives torque to the quattro all-wheel drive permanent, which has a bias of sporty rear. Double wishbones made ​​from aluminum guide all four wheels, the chassis gives great agility and stability. Off-road mode and hill-descent assistant aid off-road.  




With a wheelbase measuring 3.00 meters (9.84 feet) and an overall length of 5.09 meters (16.70 feet), the interior offers plenty of room. Audi offers the Q7 with five, six or seven seats. The luggage compartment offers as much as 2,035 liters of capacity (71.87 cubic ft). This new entry model's standard equipment package includes two-zone deluxe automatic air conditioning, a high-beam assistant, and an MMI radio multimedia interface. Options include climate-controlled comfort seats, a panoramic glass sunroof, an electric tailgate, and a load-securing kit with rails for cargo. Sophisticated driver-assistance systems and a system of ultramodern infotainment modules round out the offer.

Audi saves on development costs and consumers save at the pump. With the improved efficiency of the new drivetrain comboan overall reduction in emissions and fuel consumptionDespite a generous equipment package, this model line's new entry model costs just 51,800 euros in Germany. Q7 is the base price makes it more affordable than all its competitors.
