Used 2021 Audi SQ7 SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2021 Audi SQ7 offers two trim levels: Premium Plus and Prestige. Both are powered by a turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine (500 horsepower, 568 lb-ft of torque) paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. Performance between the two trims is identical; the Prestige just offers more standard features.

Premium Plus
Besides a handful of performance upgrades, the SQ7 includes even more standard features than the regular Q7. Highlights include:

  • 21-inch wheels
  • Upgraded brakes
  • Adaptive air sport suspension
  • Power-adjustable, heated front seats
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Leather upholstery
  • Four-zone automatic climate control
  • Power-adjustable steering wheel
  • Digital gauge cluster display
  • Two touchscreen infotainment displays with navigation
  • Bang & Olufsen audio system
  • 360-degree camera (gives you a top-down view of the SQ7 and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
  • Automatic emergency braking (warns if a front impact is imminent and applies the brakes if the driver doesn't respond in time)
  • Lane departure warning (alerts you if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane)

Prestige
This builds off the Premium Plus, adding:

  • Dual-pane acoustic glass for front and rear windows
  • Power soft-closing doors (catch as they're being closed and gently pull shut)
  • Intersection assist (issues warning at up to 18 mph if cross-traffic is detected)
  • Ventilated front seats
  • Heated rear seats
  • Panoramic sunroof
  • Head-up display (displays important information in your sight line onto the windshield)
  • Traffic sign recognition
  • Lane keeping system (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane)
  • Adaptive cruise control (adjusts speed to maintain a constant distance between the SQ7 and the car in front) with Traffic Jam Assist

Some of the Prestige's extra features are available on the Premium Plus as options. Other key add-ons include:

  • Black Optic package (dark exterior accents with summer performance tires)
  • Ventilated and massaging front seats
  • Towing package (increases trailering capacity up to 7,700 pounds)
  • Wi-Fi hotspot
  • Sport package with active roll stabilization and sport differential (Prestige only)
  • Upgraded 23-speaker Bang & Olufsen 3D Advanced Sound System (Prestige only)

Which SQ7 trim does Edmunds recommend?

Of the two available trims, we suggest going with the base Premium Plus model. It comes with plenty of standard features such as an adaptive suspension, LED lighting and a premium audio system. We also recommend adding the optional Driver Assistance package since it includes must-have driver aids such as adaptive cruise control.
