Audi Q7 Hybrid delayed for late 2008

The seven-seat Audi Q7 SUV benefits from a ‘win-win’ upgrade this week courtesy of a new version of its 3.0-litre V6 TDI engine which brings lower emissions, higher power and torque and improved performance and fuel economy.


The even more efficient 2008 Model Year Q7 3.0 TDI quattro, which is also now equipped with an exhaust-cleansing Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), is available for order in standard, SE and S line trim priced from £38,075 OTR. It forms part of a Q7 development programme which also includes petrol/electric hybrid versions that slash fuel consumption and emissions by over 20 per cent.

I'll (actually) take a 3.0 TDI S-Line once my FX lease runs out late next year. Although, if the Q5 is nice looking, sporty and comes with a Diesel I may consider it instead.

No news here.

Q7 diesel and Hybrid variants are scheduled for 4th quarter 2008 in the US. That timetable has not changed in recent months.
