5 reasons to buy the 2015 Audi Q7

1. Adventurous 

The 2015 Audi Q7 is designed for city living, but it’s also ready for adventure. The standard AWD makes it easy to navigate snowy roads as you drive to a ski chalet. Standard roof rails give you extra cargo flexibility, and are perfect for bringing your kayak to the beach or hauling home a Christmas tree that you cut yourself.  

2. Lots of trims 

With six trims available, the Audi Q7 makes it easy to have the features you want. Even the base trim, called Premium, is luxurious, with standard leather seats, automatic windshield wipers, and more. As you climb through the trims, you add features ranging from a panoramic sunroof (standard on the Premium Plus trim and higher) to sports-themed exterior styling (standard on the Prestige trim).  

3. Warm weather ready 

With standard AWD, the 2015 Audi Q7 is ready for the cold, but the car is also a perfect fit if you live in a hot climate. Ventilated front seats are standard on the Prestige trim and higher. The Warm Weather package (available on the Premium Plus trim and higher) adds shades for the rear doors and liftgate, deep tinting to the sunroof, and four-zone automatic climate control. With those features, you’ll be able to stay cool on even the more blistering summer drives.  

4. Great audio systems 

If you love music, you’ll love the sound systems in the 2015 Audi Q7. The vehicle comes standard with an 11-speaker audio system and Bluetooth® integration. The Premium Plus trim and higher come standard with a 14-speaker Bose® surround-sound audio system, while a 14-speaker Bang & Olufson surround sound system is available on Prestige models.  

5. Kid-friendly 

Like most crossovers, the 2015 Audi Q7 is designed with kids in mind. The second row bench reclines, making installing car seats easy, or letting your older kids relax after a long day of adventure. The second and third rows each have two sets of LATCH connections for car seats, and the second-row bench can even fit three carseats across, making the 2015 Audi Q7 perfect for families with lots of children in carseats or boosters.
