Ch-Ch-Changes: 2010 Audi Q7

It’s that time again: The auto show season is winding down and all the brand-new models have been unveiled, but car companies still have to update existing nameplates. Audi is offering minor tweaks to its Q7 SUV, including a mildly revised front and rear end. The most noticeable change, of course, is the LED running lights encircling the entire headlight design. The rear also gets full LED brake lights.

The interior remains basically the same, with new leather front seats and Audi’s third-generation infotainment system with MMI (multi-media interface). The voice-activation feature for the navigation system is quite interesting. Users just need to say commands, such as “I need gas” or “I’m hungry,” for the computer to find the right points of interest in the vicinity.

Engine choices include the existing 3.6-liter V-6 and 4.2-liter V-8, along with a new TDI option for those looking for a diesel alternative. Audi says its 2010 Q7 TDI will get 25 mpg with a 600-mile range.  

The 2010 Q7 goes on sale this fall. A few more images are below.

They really need to clean up that front grille. Way too busy.

Actually not the grille, just the whole front of the car.

With Audi using more and more of their LEDs on the front, it's becoming a Broadway show coming down the road. Hey Audi, it's starting to look clownish!

a little too LED lighting for me and when they are lit up...still not so cool
and i think theyre trying to bring in some Q5 in it lol

The front LED lights make the grille area look like it's already Christmas.

As far as technology goes, I know Audi has the upper-hand, but my Volvo XC90 V8 is a far more attractive vehicle.

I like them as concepts, but I agree

More gimmicks before building an honest and solid car.Kingsun LED Parking Light’s design is refered to the traditional Parking Lights design and using most advanced LED light technology to cooperate, which can be saving the energy and keep environmental friendly.
