Pros Exceptional interior materials and build quality Excellent ride quality Plenty of safety and infotainment tech features Surprisingly agile handling
Cons Offers less cargo space than most competitors Cramped third-row seat Infotainment system is distracting to use
The 2021 Audi Q7 fuses a high-class cabin and abundant tech features with a coddling ride, engaging handling, and energetic engines, but it falls short on cargo and third-row space. The Q7 does not have an overall score or ranking because it has not been scored for predicted reliability.
