Soon after the launch in Malaysia, Audi is all set to bring its flagship SUV in India. The all new Audi Q7 is expected to reach Indian dealerships on December 10.

New Q7 houses a 3.0 TFSI supercharged V6 engine that produces a maximum power of 333 bhp and a peak torque of 440 Nm at 2,900 to 5,300 rpm. The motor comes mated to an 8-speed tiptronic transmission which helps it accelerate from 0 to 100 kmph in just 6.3 seconds, 1.6 seconds faster than the previous model and go all the way up to a top speed of 250 kmph. Also, the new model is 300kg lighter, courtesy to the smaller dimensions and new construction.
