Next-Gen Audi Q7 Leaks Online

Audi has confirmed that the third-generation Q7 is nearing its global debut, set to arrive alongside the new Q9 flagship SUV. This announcement coincides with a full leak, showing what appear to be official images of the upcoming premium three-row SUV.

The upcoming model arrives around 11 years after the second generation car went on sale. The outgoing version has been on the market since 2015, receiving major facelifts in 2020 and 2024 to prolong its lifecycle.

To build anticipation, the German manufacturer released an official teaser image showing a close up of the front doors. It reveals conventional door handles, redesigned wing mirrors, and an S Line badge, finished in a new paint shade called Alopias Blue Metallic.

Going by the leak ,the new Q7 features aggressive split LED headlamps, a wider honeycomb front grille, and an upright tailgate. Under the skin, the luxury SUV transitions away from the older MLB chassis to the newer PPC (Premium Platform Combustion) architecture, which also underpins the latest A6.

This platform is fully compatible with petrol, diesel, and plug-in hybrid powertrains, and is expected to deliver noticeable improvements in overall refinement and ride quality.
