This thing is like a female body builder in formal ware. I still can’t believe it goes that fast and uses that little fuel, i think Audi can see 10 years into the future of much higher fuel prices, higher carbon taxes and a niche of people who are wanting exiting cars but don’t want to be seen as high polluters.

They should use this to clear seagulls off airport runways, that grill would swallow them whole.

It’s not pretty but WOW that engine is a cracker.

I think I’d prefer an M-12 Sherman.. as the Audi looks as aerodynamic; manouvreable not to mention as practical as a Tank

And the diesel does it again. Waahhooooo.

Its not ugly, just white paint don’t do it justice. Nobody buy white car apart from you Australians (for good reason) over here their resale value are worse than a metalic coloured cars.

I like the look of the Q7. Weird, cos I don’t particularly like the new A4/A5, they are just too conversative.

I’m with Mick on this one too. It looks like any other Audi that’s been stretched upwards to fit the profile of an SUV. I think it works quite well. It’s certainly no uglier than anything else in this market. If this is ugly then how do you rate a Lexus RX, Volvo XC, BMW X, Merc ML or Porsche Cayenne?

Im going to have to disagree with most of you on this one, I like the look of the normal Q7, the front grill is a bit excessive but the back looks good.
But 20″ brakes thats huge, just need some 24″ chromes for it and it could be pimp my rides new showcar.
Ill have to find someone with one incase i ever need the side of my house pulled out.

I had to do a double-take too, but they are definitely 20-inch discs.

+1 on Alec’s comment.

The discs are not 20″ at all. 500mm brake discs.. thats unpossible!!

I agree with everybody else, its plain ugly.

AUDI need to employee Italian design team ASAP!

What is REALLY ugly is the mouth/grill on the front of all AUDI, complicated, stupid-looking and plain ugly.

Is this vehicle really any different to a V10 ToeRag?

Cheers

Caradvice..
Are you sure 20inch Discs fit inside 21 inch wheels??
The discs in the picture look more than 1 inch smaller than the wheel size…???

Dear god that’s ugly. Has Audi’s design department been replaced by some redneck named Cletus?

5th gear used a Touareg to pull a 747, maybe now they can use this to pull the Airbus A380!

The Q7 is a really nice car in the flesh, very intimidating but classy at the same time. If the photos featured a black car, i think alot of people would think it more appealing
