Drivers in West Palm Beach, Delray Beach, and Boynton Beach can learn about the Audi Q7 towing capacity with our in-depth towing review.

Powertrains

The Q7 can be equipped with a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine with 252 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque, or a supercharged 3.0-liter V6 engine with 333 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque, both mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. With the 2.0-liter, the Q7 can tow up to 4,400 pounds, which increases to 7,700 pounds with the 3.0-liter. These impressive numbers are enough for a small boat, recreational vehicle, or loaded trailer.

In addition, the Q7 can accommodate seven passengers in its three rows of seating, and offers 71.6 cubic feet of cargo space with the rows folded flat. Regardless of why you need an SUV, the combined space, cargo capacity, and towing capacity of the Q7 ensures you're not compromising on anything.

Towing Features

A towing package is available to enhance the Q7's towing capability. With this package, you'll gain a pre-wiring harness for a brake control unit that modulates the brakes for safer towing, a trailer wiring connector and receiver hitch with wiring harness attachment, and a hitch with a ball and cover.

Choosing a towing package isn't a necessity for towing with the Q7, but it is designed to make towing safer and more convenient. A factory tow package is designed and installed by the same engineers who designed every other aspect of the vehicle, ensuring that the towing features are well within the vehicle's capabilities. If you're planning on pulling thousands of pounds behind your vehicle, especially with precious cargo in the cabin, this added peace of mind is worth it. Towing packages also make towing less straining on your vehicle, which helps with future maintenance and repairs if you plan on towing often.

Safety Features

The Q7 can be equipped with many safety features that enhance its overall safety, along with towing safety. Forward Collision Warning with Automatic Braking and Pedestrian Detection is standard, and Adaptive Cruise Control, a Head-Up Display, Active Lane Keep Assist and Traffic Sign Recognition are a few of the available features.

These advanced safety features are designed to keep you aware of the vehicles and obstructions ahead, behind, and around your vehicle, giving you plenty of notice to avoid a collision. Towing a heavy trailer requires longer braking distances, wider turns, careful merging, and other changes to your normal driving routine, so the added protection of safety features prevents any panic driving that could compromise your safety.
