Electric turbos and 48V electrical systems and a 429BHP 4.2 TDI Engine
 

So this article relates to the SQ7, but much of this can be expected on the D5 - Time to sell a kidney I think +++

Let's hope the SQ7 looks nice. I think the new Q7 is minging...:(

Agreed. The looks are not sitting well with me.

But, the interior space, handling, power, tech. All very, very good.

Pleased to see they've revived a V8 diesel for it - although honestly the 3.0 Tdi is plenty.

This thing should be a monster. Given the (very noticeable) weight reductions they've made to the new Q7, I imagine they probably have managed to get it to corner too.

Why is everything I really fancy many magnitudes of quantity outside my price range ??.. :D

Saw a shot of the ABT body kit on a new Q7 and from the angle it looked just like an A6 Avant to me.. Still wouldn't say no though!
