Despite its corpulence, the Q7 is simply exceptional. Comfortable, generous, attractive, well built and relatively fuel-efficient, it’s got everything it needs to become one of the best crossovers on the market.

Besides its good performance and economy, the Audi Q7 TDI Premium is a nice-riding, quiet guy that dresses up like the luxury vehicle it is.

The 2010 Audi Q7 TDI delivers on its promise of performance and fuel economy. It’s also the most worthwhile of the Q7 engine options.

Instead of seeming like a happy Saint Bernard romping through the snow (how a Chevy Tahoe or Ford Expedition takes to drifts of the white stuff), the Audi Q7 TDI feels supremely dignified.

The V6 TDI is a perfect match
for the Q7’s luxury SUV personality. In fact, the Q7 will be the most posh diesel SUV on the market when it arrives next year.

More than any other car I’ve driven, the Q7 is what it is — and it’s not going to adapt to make you happy. It’s a car I recommend taking for a long test drive before buying, to be sure you can live with it.

Like mimes and men’s turtlenecks, clean diesel vehicles have been popular in Europe for a while. Jury’s out on whether or not they’ll catch on here, but if the upcoming diesels perform as solidly as the Q7 TDI, I hope to see more of them.

Audi’s TDI (Turbo Diesel Injection) engine makes the the Q7 an excellent option for those looking for a large, sophisticated SUV on a mid-size sedan’s fuel budget.

What makes the 2009 Audi Q7 TDI’s mileage remarkable is that it comes from a full-size, luxurious SUV that seats seven, tips the scales at more than 2.5 tons.

We’d take the 2009 Audi Q7 3.0 TDI over the more expensive gasoline V8, and that’s saying a lot. Clearly, the new crop of clean diesels is the real deal.

I’m not the only one who loved the Audi Q7. My kids swore it was the “comfiest car ever” and wanted to know if we could buy one. Sorry, kiddos, but $62,375 for my test car is out of our price range.

Audi’s Q7 is now available with a diesel V-6. Delivering 406 pound-feet of torque to the road means just a little bit of right foot is all that’s needed to get this 5651-pound dreadnought off the line.
