Audi SQ7
As a former SQ5 owner (great all rounder, just not involving enough for me to live with as only car - but thats not really its purpose) the new SQ7 looks quite tasty

Big old car but then so are X5, Range Rover, Range Rover Sport etc so there is plenty of market for things that size. Plenty of horsepower and V8 diesel.

Now what I would be interested in is that engine in an S6 or RS4 diesel avant. Don't think it would ever happen though, in much the same way I doubt the 50d engine will find itself into the 3/4 series.

The SQ5 was too big and not involving enough, so you fancy an SQ7 ?
Audi may have significantly lightened the 7, but it's still a lumbering beast. ETTO I guess.

I don't, and I've said as much in another post above Just posted because there are undoubtedly people who are looking for a big 4x4 with monster power and torque, and for those people my opinion is the SQ7 would be interesting |

You could indeed be right - I'd certainly be interested to know what the engine weighs. If I'm honest I'm more thinking about the straight line grunt and torque rather than the delicacy of the handling, which Audi don't have a great track record of anyway...
