Just bought a pre-owned Premium 3.0T 2017 Q7 and I love it. In midnight black & has bigger wheels and special rims than the ones shown on this vid. I didn’t see anything much different from the 2021 Q7 except the new one obviously has an upgraded infotainment system and interior.. and an uglier grill.. (in my humble opinion LOL) was just looking for a nice family car for me and my two young kids and its extremely roomy and safe-feeling. Great drive and quiet cabin. Saved about $35k by buying pre-owned. If you have the extra bucks get a new one because why not but if you’re just looking for a nice used family suv which still has a luxury feel and timeless design, the 2017 Q7 does a great job.
Agree, older grill's look better. still have my 2017 Q7. Its a great car. relatively cheap on maintenance... saved about the same buying cpo with extended Audi factory warranty. enjoy!!
@@rashard8386they are not trouble free, but I like mine. The most upsetting problem I've had is the panoramic roof leaked, stained the headliner. Had to rip the whole liner out to fix the drain hoses which warp over time. I also had issues with the spark plug wiring harness overloading and actually melting, which left me stranded. Had to splice in new wires. They have a nice quality feel to them. All in all, they are going to cost you on maintenance but they'll last if you are willing to pay.
Didn't really care for the design of the new Q7 when it came out cause I felt it was too conservative looking compared to the older model, but I really like it now lol. Looks clean af. I love Audi :)
Been watching your channel for 4 years now. My god has your channel changed so much. Keep up the great work Sofyan! Would love to see some videos of the newer Ford and Mercedes products in the future.
Thanks for sticking by us! There are still a few brands that we do not get press cars for and Mercedes and Ford are some of them. We won't give up though and hopefully we can add them to our fleet rotation soon :)
I honestly really like the design of the new Q7. It is very conservatively styled, but is still extremely sleek. Also, I am really liking the color of that interior. From one car reviewer to another, keep up the great work, Sofyan!
I've always really liked these rides from years ago to present, There are just great all around practical luxurious capable vehicles! Well put together video bro
ron s Tell me about it, nothing beats first person view and showcasing how it feels to enter the damn thing you're reviewing. Little things like that, matter.
Great car, But for over 70 grand they're insane. It's good, but not that good lmao. The fact that it's possible to put nearly 40k worth of options into this thing at the end of the day is nuts even for a German car.
TheHvk Absolute bullshit German cars are expensive because they use the best materials and their cars are much better designed and engineered than other cars. As the saying goes "you get what you pay for".
@Bobby Parv, Absolutely!!! That's why 90% of German autos shit the fuckin bed the day the warranty is up. I drive a German car (VW) and I"ll admit it's amazing to drive, but It's a fucking ticking timebomb as far as reliability goes. Especially compared to it's Japanese competitors.
There are few Japanese vehicles that drive like them though. Lexus is competitive now, but you need to go for the full on F models to get anything remotely fast. Infiniti is a bit better, but not quite Lexus reliable. Acura makes snoozefest vehicles with crappy interiors.
These Q7 have so many options that it's hard to find the right one. I'm looking for a 2017 with tow hitch, warm weather package (cooled seats), vision package, driver assistance package, heads up display, and white exterior (as a nice to have as I feel that color just pops with this SUV). Didn't know that the massaging seats where part of the luxury package tho ! And the Bang and Olufsen 23 speaker must sound incredible :) I would also love a carbon finish instead of wood. I've always thought of wood interiors as being for retirees.
Excellent vehicle!! Another great aspect to this is that Audi has improved their reliability greatly over these past few years. If Consumer Reports is to be believed, you won't have that many issues with this car down the line. Especially for a German car.
Its nice and all but these "premium" cars are just getting crazy expensive and pretentious. In the end, no matter how great it is, its all just disposable. Great review though.
This new Q7 was a toss-up with the new Volvo XC90 for me. Ultimately I went with the XC90 since the Audi dealer arrogantly refused to negotiate off the sticker price. The Volvo stickered about $800 less than the Audi but the dealership took $4,000 off their sticker price which was an offer I couldn't refuse. The Q7 is more performance oriented than the XC90, but Volvo definitely offers more standard technology and luxury than Audi does. The key word there is "standard", and not overpriced bundled options like all German carmakers force upon us. American luxury car shopper: "You mean I have to spend an extra $3,000 for a backup camera and heated seats package"? German luxury car dealer: "Ja". (Sprockets theme music plays in background).
Ultimately, when you are spending this much on a premium vehicle, you pay more to get exactly what you want...that's why it's not a problem for my husband and I to pay more for our precise wants and needs and get the Audi. The 2L engine is just not enough in the Volvo, the Audi is smooth, and silent and Volvo still has a certain 'old person' image in the UK.
I love that full length vent and the temperature readings housed within the knobs. Just so far out of reach for non-vps or execs. Guess I'll have to wait until I'm in my 40s or something.
re $5000 stereo upgrade: that's only about $3.40 per day on a 48 mo lease. so basically, one starbucks coffee per day for the best auto stereo available. It's worth it. just sayin.
These Europeans SUVs are really luxurious but the problem with them is that they aren’t very utilitarian. They can’t haul or tow as much as a Nissan patrol or a Chevy Tahoe. They also don’t give you as much protection as a body on frame SUV. Still really like the Q7 tho.
Alex K Are you surprised? He clearly had no interest in reviewing it because many reviewers claimed to like it & Redline Reviews doesn't like Lexus/Toyota so he was probably upset it wasn't bashed...Mark my words & I haven't seen the video yet but this guy will have complaints about the lc500 like you've never seen before.
Totally worth the $5K? For the sound system? Honestly...If you live in this car that would still be a bit too much! Let alone used only when driving or impressing your friends!
The same B&O system is also an option in the XC90. If you want a more “value” option in the Q7, the Bose 16-speaker system is just a $500 upgrade over the stock audio.
Audi never have even close better interior then Mercedes. Cheap plastic and they don't know what is good leather. Just little bit better Volkswagen. That's all
just bought this car. now im planning to change my rim into 20s. anybody know what spec should i buy cuz has air suspension. so i have to choose the perfect fit
As well as the all glass roof that will be going away soon on many vehicles unless they will be making a heat guard so the vehicles don’t get hot as this is number one complaint from consumer today for those moonroofs
Personally I don't have a problem with that intro. Just skip it if you don't like it and BTW, don't say "us" as you don't speak for me or anyone else here.
I love this car a lot, but the entertainment screen is a little too far back in the dash. But I know they put it father back so that it can hide away inside the dash, because it would interfere with the air vents if it was bigger and closer to the vents. That’s my opinion though, and my vision sucks so...🤷🏼♂️
Its a great car but i'm very picky when it comes to buttons such as the heated and cooled seat buttons. I hate that Audi just has the facing to the left. Rather the buttons should face to their seat. For example the right seat gets the buttons picture facing to the right, then the left has the picture facing to the left. Just seeing that (in my opinion) design flaw makes me turn away from Audi. If you are going to be a premium brand, at least have the proper attention to detail to make the cars interior look upscale and as if a fair amount of money was put into. And I know Audi isn't the only brand to do it. Honda/Acura does it, Ford/Mercury does it, Toyota/Lexus does it, Mercedes does it, even Chrysler/Jeep, were doing it like that before they changed it.
Damn, those beats at the beginning. I started making my ass clap inadvertently.

TheHvk don't talk without riding in it. We are going to bye one, and if you took the test drive you would know that it is worth every single penny.
I love my q5 but I am finding out it's to small so I will be considering the q7 nice reviews ❤
At $77k one still has to pay for options that are standard on a $24k Toyota?
Do a diss track about cars you dont like
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Have you found one yet?
I have one Loaded with Every option possible..I love it… it has the Wood which I also love.
great video. good job as usual.
do the continental next.
The interesting thing about the supercharged Audi is it's easy to buy aftermarket parts and tunes to get more horsepower out of it.
Wait until you have to replace the PCV Valve...
Ughh my family has a tesla model x and coming from that i love this car while they don’t really compete i truly love this car
Keep up the good work. Love the vids
The steering is NOT “ NUMB “ I’ve ripped through Mountain side backroads. With ease & no issue it’s very precessional. 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
I love looking at cars I would never be able to afford and then crying cuz I would never be able to afford them
Beautiful SUV!
This is a great review, thank you!
Excellent vehicle!!

TheHvk consumers Reports is NOT to believe!
All German cars are designed to be maintained frequently. That's where they roll in on their dumb customers who can't DIY.
Mine left me stranded once, but I still like it
Its nice and all but these "premium" cars are just getting crazy expensive and pretentious. In the end, no matter how great it is, its all just disposable.
Great review though.
Baba Booey that's why its always best to lease them

Liked it before I watched it!
you should do the bmw x5. please do a review on that suv
great review
Depreciates like a rock tho.
MDX would be a better buy in the used market.
You forgot to mention the Bentley Bentayga, which is also built on the MLB platform.

Benul Jayasekara yes! One of the few car reviewers who haven't reviewed the lc500.
That review is filmed already! It will go live early next month!
Redline Reviews awesome!
Redline Reviews Oh shit & now the bashing begins....Top 10 dislikes of the LC500,since it's a Lexus/Toyota I'm guessing there'll be no likes.

Can you review the glc coupe??
Does it have rear seat infotainment as an option? Why don't these expensive cars not have it as a standard?
You should have driven the sq7 with the 4.0 tdi, that thing is incredible! :D
Is it turbocharged instead of supercharged?
Sorry to ask without first looking, but, do you have a RR vehicle pick list (eg your pick for 2017 large SUV, etc..)?
If you haven't already done one, can you please do a video on the 2018 Porsche Cayenne. Thank you for creating and sharing.
Totally worth the $5K? For the sound system? Honestly...If you live in this car that would still be a bit too much! Let alone used only when driving or impressing your friends!
And those pop-up speakers block your field of vision out the front windshield. That would drive me crazy.
