The Audi Q9’s design is very similar to that of the next-generation Q7. The front has a large hexagonal grille, a split headlight setup, and a mighty air dam, which gives it a bold and modern look. At the rear, a sleek roof spoiler and full-width lightbar make the SUV look even more stunning.
The test model features quad exhaust tips, which suggests that Audi is also developing a sporty SQ9 variant.
The Interior Will Be Even More Premium
Spy shots of the Q9 show that its wheelbase will be longer, and the rear overhang will also be larger. This is expected to provide more space in the cabin. This SUV will have a standard 7-seater layout, but a 6-seater captain-seat option can also be given to those who want more luxury.
Platform and Powerful Engine Options
The Audi Q9 will be built on Volkswagen’s new Premium Platform Combustion (PPC), which supports vertically mounted engines. This SUV offers options ranging from a 2.0-litre 4-cylinder turbo petrol engine to a powerful V8 engine.
The Focus Will Be On Hybrid Technology
Audi is promoting hybrid technology in its new cars. All variants of the Q9 are likely to get plug-in hybrid powertrains. Given the slow growth of EVs, the company has reconsidered its ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) launch strategy and is now focusing more on hybrid models.
