Choose your preferred level of performance on the 2023 Audi Q7 with these powertrain options. 45 TFSI® quattro® Tiptronic®With an efficient and lively turbocharged four-cylinder engine and torque-converting, eight-speed Tiptronic® automatic transmission, the 45 TFSI® engine option is ideal for transporting you and your family in comfortable, luxurious style. Enjoy smooth shifting between gears and take advantage of the ability to shift manually for more control, such as when you’re going up steep hills. Acceleration and ride are continuously optimized thanks to the quattro® all-wheel drive (AWD) system. 55 TFSI® quattro® Tiptronic®Leveraging a 48-volt mild hybrid electric system (MHEV) that supports a gas-powered turbocharged V6, the 55 TFSI® engine option on the 2023 Audi Q7 SUV optimizes fuel consumption by recouping energy that is lost when braking. If you tend to drive in stop-and-go traffic or in situations where you’re often accelerating or decelerating, this feature can prove to be beneficial. The recovered braking energy goes back to the electric system for use later as more drive power.
Offering maximum towing ability and impressive acceleration for its class, the 2023 Audi Q7 equipped with the V6 also features an eight-speed Tiptronic® automatic transmission and quattro® AWD system.  2023 Audi Q7 Towing CapacityIf you’re planning to bring along your recreational toys, such as a power boat, motorcycles, jet skis, or camper, the 2023 Audi Q7 equipped with the V6 engine provides an impressive amount of towing ability.
