The 2017 Audi Q7 for buyers
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2017 Audi Q7; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. This page sets out the 2017 Audi Q7 for buyers, in plain words.
A buyer's checks
Owners filed 320 complaints with NHTSA, most often about exterior lighting, engine and electrical system; have those parts checked. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
Under the hood
The 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with all-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 32 litres, from its 10.8 L/100 km rating. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $56.70 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Who the Q7 suits
Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Practical details
An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.
Try before you buy
Rent the Q7 first, and buy only if it fits your life. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Drive the Q7 on your commute before you commit to it.
Which one to look for
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
What it costs to run
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. The EPA estimates US$3,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Still deciding?
Ask us anything about renting before you buy.
