The 2009 Audi Q7, with its high-end accessories and elegant exterior make the Q7 well worth the money. Generous power is supplied in this 2009 Audi, while three different trim levels give buyers the opportunity to customize the model to fit their needs. The only glaring deficiency in the Q7 is its poor fuel economy. With a mere 13 city MPG and 18 highway MPG, the Q7 is near the bottom of the list for seven-passenger models. It simply does not have a chance against the Cadillac SRX or luxury hybrid vehicles on the market.
Under the hood, the 2009 Q7 can be fitted with either a powerful 280 horsepower 3.6L V6 or an impressive 350 horsepower 4.2L V8. Consumers should be pleased with the engine selections and will also find the six-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission with overdrive to be sufficient. Tiptronic refers to the transmission's ability to switch into a manual mode in which drivers can smoothly shift with total control. A Sport Package can be added to the Q7 as well. This package will provide a delay in upshifting for an even sportier driving experience. Audi's signature all-wheel drive, referred to as Quattro, is standard on all three trims. The Quattro program supplies superior handling and added traction.
Inside, buyers will be impacted by the sheer number of added features. Power front seats are trimmed in rich leather, while the steering wheel receives the leather touch as well. The front seats are also heated on the upper trims, and automatic four-zone climate control can be included with the premium Q7 trims. However, for buyers that choose not to upgrade to four-zone, the 2009 Q7 comes standard with automatic dual-zone climate control. This allows the driver and front passenger to each select their perfect temperature. An auto-dimming rearview mirror provides glare protection for drivers, and a premium audio system with a six-disc CD changer is standard on the base trims. Buyers can improve the stereo system with Bose Surround Sound.
Innovative safety features range from a sophisticated anti-theft vehicle alarm system to the high-strength uni-body construction. Constructed of highly resilient steel, the Q7's frame absorbs impact energy, rather than deflecting it. This is why the IHTSA named the Audi Q7 one of the top safety picks for the 2008 model year. The 2009 Q7 is a carryover from the prior year.
Overall, the 2009 Audi Q7 is jam-packed with convenient features. Its level of customization is hard to beat in a luxury crossover. However, the base MSRP of $43,500 could certainly turn away a large number of buyers. This four-door model is for the family with deep pockets and little concern for fuel economy. Those that are looking to be more eco-friendly will need to look elsewhere.
