2016-abt-qs7-audi-a7- 001

German tuners with a special interest in Volkswagen Group models, ABT Sportsline, has just revealed its performance package for the second-gen Audi Q7. Called the ABT QS7, the large SUV features upgrades in areas of power, aerodynamics and style.

In terms of engines, ABT is offering two tweaked power units for the Q7. The 3.0 litre TFSI which originally boasted 333 hp and 440 Nm has been tuned to deliver 410 hp and 520 Nm here. The other mill, a 3.0 litre TDI turbodiesel which formerly made 272 hp and 600 Nm, now makes 325 hp and 680 Nm under ABT’s care.

This version of the Q7 has also been treated to aerodynamic and exterior styling improvements. A new front skirt, door strip attachments and fender inserts. A rear skirt set which integrates the muffler system can also be ordered separately – even without the muffler system, if you like.

An ABT Sportsline wide-body kit has also been offered (pictured here), primarily adding front and rear fender extensions. The ABT rear wing seen here can also be purchased separately or as part of the package.

Several wheel options have been made available, each in sizes ranging from 20- to 22-inch. You may have them in one of two available styles on offer, being a five, twin-spoke style called the ABT FR wheel, and a spinning, multi-spoke type called the DR wheel.

For pricing, ABT has only revealed that its engine optimisation retails at 4,290 euros (RM20k) for the 3.0 TFSI upgrade and 2,990 euros (RM14k) for the 3.0 TDI. Also, prices for the wheels (with tyres) range from 3,450 euros (RM16k) to 6,650 euros (RM31k). Other prices were not revealed, so you’ll have to get in touch with ABT for a full quote.
