Used 2023 Audi Q7 SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2023 Audi Q7 is a midsize three-row SUV available in three trim levels: Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige. All Q7s come with three rows of seating and all-wheel drive. If you're interested in something a little sportier, check out the Q7's relatives: the V8-powered SQ7, the two-row coupe-style Q8 and SQ8, and high-performance RS Q8. All are reviewed separately on Edmunds.

Audi offers two engines in the Q7. The Premium and Premium Plus come standard with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder (261 horsepower, 273 lb-ft) that Audi refers to as the 45 TFSI. Optional for those trims, and standard on the Prestige, is a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 (335 hp, 369 lb-ft) called the 55 TFSI. Both are paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission.

    • Heated steering wheel
    • Wireless charging and signal booster for connected phone
    • Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the Q7 and its surroundings for tight parking situations)

Which Q7 trim does Edmunds recommend?

Consider getting the Premium Plus trim for the best value. It has a few desirable extras over the base trim, such as adaptive cruise control, that come as standard equipment. As for engines, we previously recommended the V6 engine. But the newfound power from this year's four-cylinder engine makes it a more viable option if you're looking for improved fuel efficiency.
