No wireless CarPlay in a Q7 is a joke. Recently visited Audi to look at the Q5 and they gave a well rehearsed illogical reply about charging speed and overheating as reasons for the absence of wireless CarPlay.

It’s such a basic feature.
My 2016 Audi A4 has wired CarPlay and someone buying a top end Q7 at the beginning of 2025 will still have then same tech. What a joke. Audi used to be the most tech laden brand and now it’s put to shame by the Seltos.

Audi is on its last dying breath, competition has much better options now

[shubhromu]

The Germans give us a stripped down car when it's new and then give us the luxuries denied to us when the car is about to be replaced! Nonsensical approach by Audi India

[shubhamkhamaru]

Never thought this day would come where tata and mahindra would feel more luxurious than an audi 😂

[Moonlight-zprj]

No ventilated and heated seats. Come on Audi India. Even cars under 10 lakhs get it. Hopefully next gen will bring it.

Renault triber has better 3rd row seating

It’s 2025, yet you’re still struggling with outdated video editing by someone inexperienced. Come on, guys either upgrade your video editor or help them improve their skills. I’m one of those viewers who’s always here within the first hour of uploading, but this needs to change.

To all those who are comparing Q7 with Indian, Japanese or Chinese company, its much more refined and guys please read specs on engine first. Its V6 3lt petrol turbo.

A (any) kia beats the Q7 by miles ..unbelievable this car still looks like it’s from 2018 !

[StartreckTu]

always a fan of Audi, looks elegant .

[benjamindas]

Not having a spare wheel or space saver is a huge no no... especially in cities where we often find nails, sharp rocks and broken patches of road. Space saver could have been a good option.

[abheetjain]

Q7 has lost its charm😅😅audi reslly needs to bring more features at this high price now....

[kamaladitya.d]

One small Suggestion bro pls suggest

Fronx Delta +O AMT or Taisor S+ AMT or Glanza V AMT
Which is better

[sabarigirish]

New Mahindra cars are feature packed and vfm!!!

[ajith]

2nd row seat's under thigh support is meager. 3rd row is the worst.

This car has super Air suspension which no other German car offer at this price point. It doesn’t makes you tired even you do full day drive. Even its 5 mtr car its steering is very light. It has all tick mark which you need from family car. You don’t have to worry before taking it to muddy road or generous off-roading as well.

Pros:
superb engine
A lot of space
It doesn’t make bump or path hole feel in cabin
It’s very quick.
Service cost is less compare to other German cars.
Super build quality

Cons:
Available only in petrol. average 5 to 8 kms in city and 8 to 10 on highway.
It miss new features like ventilated seat, more luxury feel in cabin but all this feature doesn’t matter as it done good job in all others necessary aspect for which we buy car.

[mackisbrocklesnar]

i am looking forward to when regulations make it mandatory provide a full spare, not a space saver or nonsensical repair kit, it must be a proper 5th tyre.

[Guacamole]

As an Audi Q7 owner id like to say that the engine V6 with mild hybrid is absolutely scary. the acceleration so much that in busy streets of india you need to keep your foot on the brake more than the accelerator.

[Avais-Hussain-farms]

Audi jisne chala li wo badi lcd screen na bhi rahe to farq nhi padenga qk audi is known for her performance ❤

[nemesiszz]

All i see exterior upgrades are the Headlight, tail light since a lot of generations of this car
