Audi Q7 CockpitWith its range of driver assistance systems, the new Audi Q7 sets standards that go far beyond the standards in its segment. Some systems have been completely redeveloped from scratch. No other production vehicle in the world currently offers more. One highlight is the comprehensive portfolio of new driver assistance systems, including adaptive cruise control with traffic jam assistant. This system accelerates and brakes to keep the Q7 at the desired distance from the vehicle ahead. It displays the distance when it is deactivated. With the top version, ACC stop go including traffic jam assistant, the system also takes over the steering on developed highways if traffic congested and not moving faster than 65 km/h (40,4mph). Standard are the rear parking aid, cruise control, adjustable speed limiter, rest recommendation and the safety system Audi pre sense city. At city speeds it warns the driver of impending collisions with other vehicles or pedestrians and will initiate heavy braking in an emergency. Optional solutions are bundled in the packages “Parking”, “City” and “Tour”. The “Parking” package includes the surround view camera and the park assist system, which autonomously steers the car backwards into parallel and perpendicular parking spots. The driver only has to apply the brakes and the gas. The “City” package comprises new systems. The cross-traffic assist warns the driver of other vehicles when driving slowly in reverse, such as when pulling out from a perpendicular parking spot. The exit warning system indicates vehicles or cyclists approaching from the rear before the door is opened. More innovations from Audi can be found in the “Tour” package.

Fuel consumption figures Audi Q7:

Combined fuel consumption in l/100 km: 8,3 – 5,7;

Combined CO2-emissions in g/km: 193 – 149

The fuel consumption and the CO2 emissions of a vehicle vary due to the choice of wheels and tires. They not only depend on the efficient utilization of the fuel by the vehicle, but are also influenced by driving behavior and other non-technical factors.
