**10,000 fans incentive plan last year's domestic new energy model blowout, this year's new energy vehicle models ushered in a price reduction, more and cheaper, according to the most simple economic principles, the market is undoubtedly rising, which will further squeeze the market of fuel vehicles, forcing some passive car companies to accelerate the transformation, which causes a lot of pressure on luxury cars such as BMW and Audi, take Audi for this generation of models is defined as "the last generation of fuel vehicles", want to eat the old book again, recently the new generation of Q7 again determined, It will be released at the end of 2025, and the competitiveness speaks for itself.
At the market level, due to the growth of the new energy market, it is no longer possible to make Q7 still simply oriented to old rivals such as X5 and GLE, and the domestic side of the same level embraces Krypton 001, Ideal L8 and Wenjie M7 and other cars. The brand image of natural luxury cars is an unsolvable problem, but you might as well make a horizontal comparison, and you can also fully see whether the new Q7 will not be able to take the car market next year. It is worth emphasizing that although the new Q7 adheres to the fuel positioning, it has also begun to accelerate the transformation, planning a plug-in hybrid version that is not very strong and not unusable.
Let's take a look at the power first, the new car starts with a new generation of 20T engine, the same model as the overseas version of the Tiguan and Passat, the transmission is replaced by 8AT, the introduction of 48V mild hybrid, the overall parameter performance is slightly higher, and the top configuration is replaced by 30t mild hybrid system. The performance of the two versions is as mentioned above, and there is no comparison with the new energy models on the domestic side, not to mention that the fuel consumption is not low. Because it is necessary to save face for the fuel version, this new plug-in hybrid model, there is no full firepower in performance, with a pure electric range of about 100 kilometers, it is not difficult to see that the power of the new Q7 has no bright spots.
In terms of design, from the point of view of the test car, the new Q7 has been replaced with the front face of the same Q6 e-tron, the unified design is to accelerate the transformation, from the perspective of Audi's planning, Audi will belong to the pure electric model to the original fuel car in the same series sequence, using the same letter naming, but it must be distinguished by suffix numbers, so the new Q7 gives the Q6 e-tron the same rounded large grille, some Tiggo 9 feeling, the two sides are replaced with body headlights, and the tail becomes a through light group. The whole appearance may as well be regarded as the Audi version of the Tiggo 9
Of course, Audi's brand power is still very high, and this needs to be respected. In terms of the interior of the car, the reference test car gave a suspended large screen design, but with reference to the new family design of the pure electric model Q6, the main feature is a dual screen and a pocket block, and the actual car may be more suitable for this set of solutions. Audi is currently accelerating the research and development of localized intelligent driving systems and intelligent cockpit systems, which is also to pave the way for pure electric models, but gasoline vehicles have also tasted benefits. On the whole, there are not many highlights of the new Q7, and the market will inevitably gradually become passive.
