2014 Audi Q7 Will Be The Launch Of New Design Language For Audi

The next-generation Q7 is due in 2014 and when it is revealed it will be the first Audi to use a brand-new design language. And to show how that new model could look, he even drew this pencil sketch during an interview at the Geneva Motor Show.

Like the new Range Rover, the new seven-seater Q7 is set to go on a crash diet thanks to a new lightweight aluminium construction and could weigh in at as much as 350kg less than the current car. And it’s just the first in a wave of new SUV models from Audi: “I think there is still some room in the SUV segment, it’s still growing on a worldwide basis,” Wolfgang Durheimer, Audi’s head of technical development said last November. “So maybe there is room below the Q3 – there is also room between the other Q models for more derivatives of our bigger SUVs.
