Audi Q7 3.0 Diesel

Despite its size and weight, the Q7 is a fairly decent thing to punt around corners. The steering is typically Audi — light and effortless but devoid of feel. The Quattro set-up is biased towards road driving and under normal driving conditions power is split 40/60, front to rear, which gives the Q7 a nice handling balance in brisk driving. All Q7s get variable-height, adaptive air suspension and if you set it to Dynamic mode, it’ll surprise you with its agility. Body movements are well controlled, and it grips willingly and steers accurately. It rides quite well too – set it in Comfort mode and it absorbs most bumps without fuss. There is some lumpiness present over rippled tarmac, but we put it down to the big wheels and the low-profile tyres. The taller 60-profile tyres are recommended. They may not look as nice, but they do wonders for the ride.
