Is the Audi Q7 a pure import?
2 Answers
Audi Q7 is a pure import and a mid-to-large-sized SUV. Taking the 2012 Audi Q7 as an example, its body dimensions are: length 5067mm, width 1970mm, height 1731mm, wheelbase 2996mm, fuel tank capacity 85l, and curb weight 2115kg. The 2012 Audi Q7 is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 180kW and a maximum torque of 370Nm, paired with an 8-speed automatic manual transmission. It adopts a front-engine four-wheel-drive layout, and both front and rear suspensions use multi-link independent suspension.
As a loyal fan of Audi cars and a frequent participant in automotive forums, I can responsibly confirm that the Audi Q7 is indeed purely imported. It is primarily manufactured at the factory in Slovakia, and the Chinese market has never seen a domestically produced version, unlike the Q5 which has a joint-venture variant in China. The advantages of imported cars are their more reliable quality, excellent overall craftsmanship, and refined interiors. However, the downside is the higher cost, including additional import tariffs, elevated daily maintenance expenses, and the need to wait for imported parts for replacements. I've had the chance to drive a friend's Q7 several times, and it performs exceptionally well on highways, but potential buyers should plan their budget carefully, as the maintenance intervals are longer compared to joint-venture vehicles. Overall, the Q7 is positioned as a premium model, and its pure import status ensures an authentic German driving experience.
