2026 Audi SQ7 Trims Comparison

Which 2026 SQ7 trim does Edmunds recommend?

The price difference between the two trim levels is relatively small, so we recommend spending a little more to get the top Prestige model. Going that route opens up additional features like the upgraded laser headlights, remote parking assistance, a head-up display, and ventilated and massaging front seats.

2026 SQ7 trim level differences

The 2026 Audi SQ7 comes in two trim levels: Premium Plus and Prestige. Both trims of this seven-passenger SUV come with a turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine (500 horsepower, 568 lb-ft of torque) paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission, and all-wheel drive is standard. Keep reading for our rundown of the SQ7's most significant features and options.

Premium Plus
The SQ7 delivers a handful of performance upgrades and more standard features than the regular Q7. They include:

  • 21-inch wheels
  • Matrix-design LED headlights
  • Hands-free liftgate
  • Adaptive sport air suspension
  • Rear-wheel steering (for improved handling and maneuverability)
  • Panoramic sunroof

The Audi SQ7 comes standard with these advanced driver aids:

  • 360-degree camera system (gives you a top-down view of the SQ7 and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
  • Automatic emergency braking (warns if a front impact is imminent and applies the brakes if the driver doesn't respond in time)
  • Adaptive cruise control (adjusts speed to maintain a constant distance between the SQ7 and the car in front)
  • Lane keeping assistance (steers the SQ7 back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)
  • Lane keeping system (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane)
  • Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning (alerts you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while in reverse)

The Executive package available for the Premium Plus trim includes:

  • Dual-pane side windows (reduce wind and traffic noise)
  • Heated rear seats

  • Remote automated parking system (steers into a parking spot with little or no driver intervention, either remotely or while seated in the SQ7)
  • Head-up display (displays important information in your sight line onto the windshield)
  • Intersection assistance (warns if cross-traffic is detected at speeds up to 18 mph)

Options exclusive to the Prestige trim include:

  • Luxury package
    • Synthetic suede headliner
    • Extended leather on the instrument panel
