Advanced technology designed to help you on the road.  
We’ve developed a whole range of innovations for your Audi Q7 to enhance every aspect of your car. Here are some of the standard and optional technologies available.  
MMI Navigation with MMI Touch  
With its 3D map display and high-resolution graphics,  
MMI Navigation makes it easy to get where you’re going.  
Controlling the system is just as simple, thanks to MMI  
Touch technology. You just have to ‘write’ commands  
with your finger – or speak your destination using the  
voice control system – and your route is displayed on  
the central 8.3” retractable screen or additionally in the  
7” colour Driver’s Information System. MMI Navigation  
with MMI Touch is standard on all Audi Q7 models.  
Bang & Olufsen 3D Advanced  
Sound System  
The optional Bang & Olufsen 3D Advanced  
Sound System surrounds you with crystal-clear,  
ultra-realistic sound. All 23 speakers are  
arranged especially for the interior of the Q7.  
Combined with acoustic lens technology, the music  
you hear in the Q7 is reproduced exactly as intended.  
Head-up display  
Ambient Lighting Pack  
The optional head-up display projects important  
information directly into your field of vision, so you don’t  
need to look away from the road. It shows details like  
the current speed limit, information from the assistance  
systems and instructions from the navigation system.  
All using a high-resolution 480 x 240 pixel display.  
For better visibility when you’re getting in and out,  
the optional ambient lighting system complements  
the Q7’s standard interior lighting, illuminating the  
door sill plates, as well as the contours of the centre  
console. Available with different colour profiles,  
you can change the mood in the cabin with a touch  
of the MMI button. Available as an individual option  
or part of the Style Pack.

Innovative features for enhanced safety,  
Exit warning assist  
Audi Pre-sense city  
Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop&Go  
Looks out for traffic when you or your passengers open the door  
of the Q7, monitoring the area around the car for metal objects  
that could pose a danger, like bikes and cars. If any are detected,  
it activates an LED warning light on the wing mirrors and the  
inside of the front and rear doors. Exit warning assist  
A camera monitors the road ahead for cars suddenly stopping  
or pedestrians who are about to cross. If an imminent collision is  
detected, the system warns the driver and may initiate a deceleration  
action to reduce the speed or, if possible, prevent the collision.  
Comes as standard on the Audi Q7 range. Please see page 40 for  
more details.  
and Traffic jam assist  
Keeps a steady distance from the car ahead and maintains any  
speed you choose by automatically accelerating and braking.  
If Traffic jam assist is also activated, the system uses the sensors  
and camera to detect any traffic jams ahead. When one is  
detected, the system won’t just continue to brake and accelerate  
in traffic, it can apply supportive steering to make your journey  
more comfortable. Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop&Go  
and Traffic jam assist is available as part of the optional  
Dynamic Pack or Tour Pack.  
is available as part of the optional Parking Packs or Audi Side  
Assist including Pre-sense Rear and exit warning.

efficiency and control  
Trailer assist  
Predictive efficiency assist  
All-wheel steering  
Helps to manoeuvre and stabilise both the car and trailer  
while driving. And, when reversing, it automatically steers the  
trailer in the direction you choose using the MMI Touch dial.  
All you need to do is watch the road and operate the gears,  
accelerator and brake – and if at any point the trailer risks  
colliding with the car, the system warns you. Trailer assist is  
available as part of the optional Trailer Pack.  
Uses data from the navigation system to predict your route  
and suggest ways to drive more efficiently. It alerts you to  
speed limits, hidden bends and hills, so you can slow down  
in plenty of time. Predictive efficiency assist also works with  
Adaptive Cruise Control to adjust the car’s cornering if a bend or  
roundabout is detected and can help to reduce fuel consumption.  
Predictive efficiency assist is available as part of the optional  
Dynamic Pack on Q7 models and standard on Q7 e-tron models.  
You use four wheels to drive your car, so why not use all four  
to steer it too? For more manoeuvrability at low speeds, the  
optional All-wheel steering system steers the rear wheels in  
the opposite direction to the front wheels. At high speeds,  
both axles steer in the same direction for better cornering and  
enhanced stability. So you get more responsive steering and  
a more dynamic drive.  
Vehicle driver assistance and safety systems are not a substitute for attentive driving. Drivers retain full responsibility for providing the necessary inputs for safe control of the vehicle. System descriptions within this brochure are  
provided for information purposes only. System limitations and operational requirements apply. See manual for details.
