Used Audi Q7: the years to buy and the years to skip

Every Audi Q7 from 2010 to 2025, across 2 generations: what each year typically sells for (about $7,500 to $59,000), its crash rating, and whether it's a year to target or skip. The best bets are 2010–2015, 2019–2025. Look harder at or skip 2017–2018.

2017–2025 Audi Q7

A refined three-row luxury SUV with a quiet cabin and a strong six-cylinder option.

Years to target: 2019–2025. Look harder at or skip: 2017–2018. It has a below-average reliability record.

Worth knowing

  • 2017: owner complaints spike (319, mostly the visibility and wipers).
  • 2018: owner complaints spike (142, mostly the engine).
  • The third row is best for kids. Air suspension and electronics can be expensive to repair once the warranty ends.

The trim we'd park in our garage

Target the Premium Plus: it adds a digital gauge cluster, upgraded audio, keyless entry and more driver aids over the Premium. The V6 is stronger than the early 2.0-liter turbo.

On the test drive

Pay for an inspection at an independent shop that specializes in the brand. Get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report before you buy.

Safety tech

  • Automatic emergency braking: standard from the start of this generation (2017).
  • Adaptive cruise control: optional from 2017, never standard in this generation.
  • Blind-spot monitoring: standard from 2020.

* Estimated from nearby years, since few were listed for sale.

Worth knowing

  • Reliability is weak as they age, and repairs and maintenance are very expensive.
  • It requires premium fuel.

The trim we'd park in our garage

Look for the Premium Plus: it adds navigation, a rearview camera and more convenience features over the Premium. The 3.0-liter supercharged V6, from 2011, is the engine to get.

On the test drive

Check for oil leaks and ask about carbon cleaning, and on TDIs confirm the emissions fix. Pay for an inspection at an independent shop that specializes in the brand.

Safety tech

  • Automatic emergency braking: not offered in this generation.
  • Adaptive cruise control: optional from 2010, never standard in this generation.
  • Blind-spot monitoring: not standard in this generation, so check the listing.
