2022 Audi Q7 vs. 2022 Volvo XC60
The 2022 Audi Q7 is a big and spacious SUV with a classic style, array of safety gear, and substantial performance. But how does it compare to the 2022 Volvo XC60, an SUV with a lovely interior, 3 powertrains and excellent safety scores?
Design & Style
The Volvo XC60 can hold five persons, and is equipped with features such as hybrid plugin tech, all-wheel drive, and a cabin which is lightly toned. Its latest changes for the year include switching out the old infotainment system for a newer one that is Android based, replacing leather with cloth upholstery and the removal of wifi and HD radio. Additionally, its drive mode selection now appears within the touchscreen, and a moderate hybrid system is used to boost its fuel economy.
The Audi Q7 is capable of holding seven persons in three row seating. It has elegant lines in the exterior which are used to frame the headlights and grille, with a tapered body that completes the look. Its air suspension has been upgraded and thirty five cubic feet has been reserved for cargo space. New LEDs can be seen in front, and the vehicle sits on nineteen inch wheels with a vertical grille and bumper which has been lowered.
Technology & Safety
The Audi Q7 comes with the auto industry’s most advanced safety features, such as automated emergency brakes, assistance with traffic jams, blind area monitoring, and automated high beams. It can also identify traffic signs automatically, and perks within its cabin include a powered tailgate, powered seats that can be heated or cooled, panoramic sunroof, Android Auto or Apple CarPlay and nine inch touch displays.
The Volvo XC60 has done well on its crash tests, and is equipped with many of the features found in the Audi Q7. This includes steering assistance, blind area monitoring, emergency automated brakes and adapted cruise control. Perks within its cabin include a camera with surround view, climate control, powered seats that can be heated, driftwood trim and the option of leather upholstery with a Bowers & Wilkins sound system.
Performance
Those that want maximum performance can purchase the Volvo XC60 T8 which can generate 400 horsepower with the ability to accelerate from zero to sixty in about five seconds. Those that purchase the Audi SQ7 will get a 4 liter, dual turbo V8 engine that can generate 500 horsepower with the ability to accelerate from zero to sixty in around 4.3 seconds.
The Bottom Line
The Audi Q7 seats more passengers and has better horsepower and acceleration than the Volvo. Furthermore, while the XC60 can only tow 3,500 pounds, the Q7 can tow 7,700 pounds, which makes Audi the winner.
