Audi Q7 test drive since 2009 SUV

The shape of the size

  Q7 purchased family chains of LEDs and tried on a new suit. Audi giant changed, but did not change himself: having become more elegant, he did not become weaker.
The road is somewhere far below and does not bother at all. It is creeping in a smooth ribbon as if it is not at all, but there is one movement: the new Q7 rolled itself. It is he, and not the driver peering into the distance with the radar of adaptive cruise control and takes care not to lose time and not exceed the speed. The mighty V8 gently grumbles in his mustache chain of LEDs, silence, peace. Even the electronic navigator after restyling stopped weird and does not entertain the driver with its old quirks.
 
She will no longer ask to get ready to move directly after 3 km or, on the contrary, turn off exactly at the moment when the desired road opened for a second the driver's eyes with his perspective only so that he could lead her to the stern at a speed of 130 miles per hour. Now the navigation is always on time and in the case talks about what to do in order to achieve the goal on time and without surprises, how to go around traffic jams and not encounter repairmen.
The brutal giant Audi survived restyling. The differences are small, but numerous and important, since they bring out excessively worked out at the birth of a large premium SUV in the second half of his life to the younger and more perfect. Inside, now a little more chrome and matte aluminum, noticeably greater than the style and sensation of quality.
 
Metal parts in the interior decoration are real. Chrome became a little more, new colors were added, materials became even better: the feeling of the value of the machine has become more significant
The line in the line of gasoline engines 3.6 and 4.2 FSI and diesel 3.0, 4.2 (became more powerful) and 6.0 tdi
With light strokes, looking off the dust of time from the passenger compartment, they walked almost throughout: they updated materials and a gamut of flowers, complemented the internal backlight, corrected the dashboard and introduced an optional climate control into the seats. Outside appeared strips of LEDs and new headlights with an additional to the near and far light by Superhighway. The new design of the branded grille of the radiator, the shape of the bumpers, the rear optics and the trunk doors corrected the stronger posture: the updated car looks more elegant and fresh. Now there is no fullness only muscles, and this is not just an impression.
Despite all the requirements of ecologists and more economical and clean operation of updated engines, the power of Q7 is still alive and tangible. When I get tired of rolling, trusting a cruise control, you press the Audi Q7 gas just to wake up and feel the force that easily and powerfully raises the move. Two and a half tons are not felt either on acceleration or in braking.
They do not even interfere even in corners where the high SUV feels not much heavier than a good car, thanks to an excellent chassis and a complete drive with an asymmetric distribution of torque (40/60 in favor of the rear axle). The giant stands on the arc and stands tightly on it, not slipping out and not trying to screw inward. On the year, all the cars with the QUATTRO nameplate are perfectly balanced, and the new Q7 is just the largest of them. Naturally, he was no exception.
