AUDI Q7 4.2 TDI V8
The Audi Q7 4.2 TDI V8 arrived in Australian showrooms in late December. The eight cylinder unit, which already powers the A8 saloon, has a displacement of 4.2-litres and delivers 240kW and 760 Nm of torque - available constantly from 1,800 to 2,500 rpm. This gives the Audi Q7 4.2 TDI the performance of a sports car.
It accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 6.4 seconds and reaches a top speed of 236 km/h. The Audi Q7 4.2 TDI transmits its power through the six-speed tiptronic automatic transmission to a sportily tuned quattro driveline, which splits the propulsive force 40:60 between the front and rear wheels under normal driving conditions. The Q7 4.2 TDI is priced at $123,900 and has the same specification as its 4.2 V8 petrol sibling.
