The Audi Q7 vs. The Competition

When it comes to finding a luxury SUV, the search can be extensive having to search through all of the options out there. We at Audi Tacoma understand this, but we want your car-buying experience to be as easy as possible. So to save you time, we have gone ahead and compared our Audi Q7 against the competing Acura MDX and Lexus GX. Understanding each vehicle comes in their series of trims, we compared the base trim of each vehicle.

Cost

Since cost ultimately determines the car-buying decision, we start with that. The Audi Q7 places second in matters of MSRP and True Market Value; higher than the Acura MDX but lower than the Lexus GX. But with that price comes a dominating array of features that set the Audi Q7 apart.

Performance

Over an all-wheel-drive system and eight-speed automatic transmission, the Audi Q7 packs the smallest engine out of the three vehicles, a 2.0-liter inline-4 turbo. But, that engine gives Q7 the best fuel economy out of the three, and second-highest level of torque.

Interior Features

Inside, the Audi matches the more expensive Lexus GX in convenience standards like Bluetooth, HD radio, heated and cooled leather seats, and keyless ignition. This also includes safety features like standard Child Seat Anchors, Stability and Traction control, and side/curtain airbags, as well as optional Emergency Service, and optional Stolen Vehicle Tracking.
