2017--2008-2010 Audi Q7 Available Features: Pros
Year	Comment
2017	I have never driven a car more packed with, to use the technical term, stuff. Audi, wont to load its cars with the latest technology, has given the new Q7 pretty much everything, and then some. Well, except for a diesel or hybrid powerplant. The diesel is delayed by VW's well-known emissions fiasco, while a plug-in hybrid could arrive in a year or two. Volvo offers the latter this year. But I digress. I thought the Volvo XC90 was packed with features. The new Q7 can be optioned with nearly everything available on the XC90 plus a synthetic suede headliner, rear-wheel steering, massaging front seats, a power-folding third-row seat, 4G LTE connectivity, support for Android Auto and Apply Carplay, night vision, adaptive cruise control that anticipates curves from nav data, and even a few additional bits of safety tech. Oh, and one feature oddly absent from the Volvo: power tilt and telescope adjustments for the steering wheel. Both vehicles offer head-up displays (HUDs), around-view camera systems (which make parking these large vehicles much less stressful and even fun), kilowatt-plus fancy brand audio systems with about 20 speakers, heated-and-cooled multi-adjustable front seats (with even more adjustments in the Audi), heated rear seats, and huge panoramic sunroofs. With both vehicles you can customize a surprisingly large number of things by digging through the menus. The typical owner will likely never bother. But they'll sense the possibility is there courtesy of engineers who tried to think of and include everything. see full Audi Q7 review
