Audi SQ7 spied testing in Mumbai

The performance oriented version of the Audi Q7, the SQ7, has been spied in Mumbai undergoing testing. The new car has not been launched globally yet and is rumored to get a high performance engine to match the ‘S’ nomenclature it is set to receive. The new SQ7 will make its debut in India next year.

The SQ7 differentiates itself from the normal one with the addition of quad exhaust pipes and a slightly more aggressive front bumper and rear bumper combination. The SQ7 will also get a more aggressive front grille, but most of the design changes will be apparent when the car makes its debut globally very soon.

The new SQ7 will also be the first S powered Audi that will not get a petrol engine. The car instead will receive a V8 diesel engine with electric turbochargers that will aid the engine make upwards of 500PS of power and an insane amount of torque.

Expect the Audi SQ7 to make its way to India next year and to be available between Rs 1.0-1.5 Crores. The SQ7 will go up against the likes of the BMW X5M and the Mercedes-Benz ML63/GL63 AMG. We think the SQ7 will have more takers than its competitors mainly because of its diesel engine.
