Overview & Reviews

The 2008 Audi Q7 is unchanged save for some feature and trim level updates. The base 3.6, 3.6 Premium and 4.2 Premium trim levels all have extra standard equipment this year (and higher MSRPs to match.) Last year's base 4.2 trim level has been dropped.

• Sport-oriented handling on air-suspension-equipped models, high-tech luxury and safety features, superior interior design and craftsmanship.

• Heavy curb weight hampers acceleration and fuel economy, cramped third-row seat, no factory DVD entertainment system.

  Rolling Thunder, A6 on Steroids - 2008 Audi Q7
  By bigmountain - September 14 - 12:15 pm

  This is my first return to a German car in 6 years. This car feels rock solid. The handling and seating position makes for comfortable commutes on DCs Capital Beltway. The parking sensors and rear backup camera are great. The MMI and nav. system takes some setup and getting used to, but once youve mastered it, it is quick and convenient. The 6 speed auto delivers on its promises.

  Better than the 07s - 2008 Audi Q7
  By oceankayaker7 - August 14 - 3:27 am

  I rented a 07 3.6 for two weeks in March. The ride is much smoother, handling not as stiff, brakes not as touchy compared to the 07 I rented. The standard front sensors and rear parking camera are incredible. The slight front bucket seats are very comfortable. The standard 20 inch wheels are a great touch at medium and high speeds but a little rigid at speeds below 45mph. Better off with these 20s than the 19s or 18s when it comes to handling.The acceleration, S turn capability, ride are perfect. Stereo system doesnt get any better. For driving around town, I suggest getting the 3.6. Second row leg room would better for a SUV of this size. A Plus grade over all.

  Doesnt Get Any Better - 2008 Audi Q7
  By bigsur64 - August 6 - 8:25 pm

  The 08 has front and rear parking sensors which are perfect addition. The front seats have a slight bucket which is also new. The MMI is very easy to use but have to agree with others that the nav. system takes getting used too. The handling and acceleration are incredible, taking hard S turns in the Q7 is a lot of fun. The brakes arent as sensitive as the 07s. The 20 inch wheels are also standard. The ride with these at lower speeds is a little noisy but over 45 its smooth sailing. Better to have these 20s than have the 18s or 19s with less handing. This Q7 needs to be driven hard on the highways or along coastal or mountain passes. This is not a putt around town SUV.
