Audi Q7 III (G8) photos

The third-generation Audi Q7 (type G8) was revealed on 9 June 2026, eleven years after its predecessor. The defining change is the switch from the MLB Evo architecture — shared with the Porsche Cayenne, Bentley Bentayga and Lamborghini Urus — to the new PPC (Premium Platform Combustion) platform already used by the C9-generation Audi A6. The body measures 5.06 m long and 2.01 m wide without mirrors, on a 2.99 m wheelbase, and the cabin is offered in five-, six- and seven-seat configurations.

The engine range covers a twin-turbocharged 2.9-litre petrol V6 with 429 hp and 599 Nm, plus a 3.0 TDI mild-hybrid diesel V6 in two outputs — 245 hp (500 Nm) and 299 hp (630 Nm). The performance SQ7 uses a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 rated at 591 hp and 800 Nm. Every version pairs an eight-speed automatic with standard quattro all-wheel drive. Deliveries began in September 2026. With the full-size Q9 joining the range, the third Q7 sits as a mid-tier model rather than the flagship.
