In the domestic luxury medium and large SUV market, many of them will choose the Audi Q7. Brand influence aside, Audi Q7 itself is also very powerful, 7-seat large space, as well as up to 340 horsepower 3.0T + 48V light hybrid powertrain, so that it can fully meet the needs of such consumers to buy cars, in addition, in the BBA's medium and large SUV, Audi Q7 is still a very cost-effective car, its previous discounts are also very large. So, let's analyze the current discount situation of Audi Q7 today, and see if it is appropriate to buy this car before the Spring Festival?
The discount has been reduced, and the booking of cars has to wait until after the Spring Festival
According to the sales data of an Audi 4S store in Beijing that we visited, the total sales volume of this store last month was 139 units, of which 13 Audi Q7 units were sold, accounting for less than 10% of the store's sales. Among the Audi Q7 models on sale, the "2022 55 TFSI quattro S line sport" as the 3.0T entry-level version is the hottest model, with a guidance price of 773,800 yuan. This car adopts a 3.0T + 48V light hybrid power system, the maximum power can be 95 horsepower higher than the 2.0T model, the maximum torque is 500N·m, the power performance is more outstanding, and it also has air suspension, adjustable soft and hard and high and low, which greatly improves the comfort and stability when driving.
In addition, compared with the "2022 55 TFSI quattro S line Ice and Snow Sports Edition" in the first year of high school, the price is 46,000 yuan lower, but the difference in configuration is not particularly large, less than the overall active steering system, steering wheel heating and rear seat heating These functions, but this will not have much impact on our daily driving. It can be seen that whether it is from the power side or the configuration, the Audi Q7's "2022 55 TFSI quattro S line sport" seems to be more practical.
At present, the terminal preferential margin of Audi Q7 is not as large as before, the cash discount of the 2.0T model is about 130,000 yuan (82% discount), and the cash discount of the 3.0T model is about 40,000 yuan (95% off).

Details are shown in the following table:
As for the hot color, the sales staff said that the hottest is still dominated by black, after all, the middle-aged men in the Audi Q7 car buying crowd are mostly middle-aged men, and they are more pursuing a stable and mature model appearance. In addition, the user who came to the store to test drive the Audi Q7 has a relatively sufficient car purchase budget, they mainly look at the Audi Q7 has a large space of 7 seats, and can install a lot of things when going out of the field, and the Audi Q7 adopts a full-time four-wheel drive power form, and the comfort of driving up is very good and smooth. However, now the audi Q7 in the store is in a relatively short state of car, the hot selling 3.0T entry-level version currently has only 3 existing cars in the store, if you want to buy the rest of the models, the booking cycle is also relatively long, it takes about 6-8 weeks, it is estimated to wait until after the Spring Festival to deliver.
The X5 accelerates by 0.2 seconds, but the Q7 has a body of over five meters
Since it is necessary to buy medium-sized SUVs for luxury brands with a budget of nearly 800,000 yuan, consumers will inevitably hesitate between BBA. Among the models that have a direct competition with the Audi Q7 is the BMW X5. According to sales, many young users who come to see the car will feel that the appearance and interior style of the Audi Q7 are somewhat old-fashioned, and there are not too many colors to choose, and the driving pleasure after the test drive is not particularly rich, and they will turn to choose the BMW X5 with a stylish shape and strong power, although the BMW X5 offer is not large, but fortunately there are a small number of existing cars. So let's briefly compare the two cars now and see which one is more worth buying?
As a medium and large SUV, the Audi Q7 has a body length of more than 5 meters, which is naturally more dominant in the seating space, and the rear seats also support electric reclining, and the space flexibility is also higher. In addition, for the entry-level model of the two cars, audi Q7 is better in terms of comfort configuration and lighting configuration, with more features such as seat ventilation, independent air conditioning in the rear and 30 colors of interior environmental atmosphere lights, even if the price is 1900 yuan higher, it is worth the money.
However, the appearance of the BMW X5 is quite stylish and sporty, which is more attractive to younger consumers. In addition, it is also a model equipped with a 2.0T engine, the maximum power of the BMW X5 is 265 horsepower, which is slightly ahead of the power parameters, and it is 0.2s faster in zero hundred acceleration time.
Therefore, how to choose these two cars mainly depends on what the demand for cars is. Overall, if the number of families is larger and more pursuit of a large space of 7 seats, then you can go to see the Audi Q7 and feel its driving comfort; but if you care more about appearance and power, then the BMW X5 seems to be more desirable.
Let's take a look at the use of these two cars after buying a car.
In terms of vehicle maintenance, the Audi Q7 maintenance cycle is 10,000 kilometers at a time. Among them, the cost of small maintenance is about 1628 yuan, while the replacement of spark plugs and brake oil and other accessories for large maintenance needs about 3275 yuan. We use three years of driving 60,000 kilometers as a large car cycle to calculate, then the total maintenance cost of this car for three years is about 21920 yuan, and the average annual need is almost 7306 yuan.
BMW X5 is also maintained every 10,000 kilometers or 12 months, if it is a simple oil and filter maintenance costs about 1205 yuan, if the maintenance of the comprehensive cost is about 5230 yuan. Therefore, the total cost of maintenance required for this car for three years is 19305 yuan, and the average annual maintenance cost is 6435 yuan. It can be seen that the maintenance cycle of these two cars is relatively long, and it can be maintained once a year, but in terms of overall cost, IT is still slightly more cost-effective for BMW X5.
Then there is the residual value of the second-hand car of the two cars.
According to the information learned from the mainstream used car platform, the Audi Q7 2020 55 TFSI quattro S line sport type (imported), the landing price at that time was about 810,000 yuan, and after a year and a half of driving 4,000 kilometers, the current residual value of the second-hand car was 698,800 yuan.
BMW X5 2021 xDrive30i M sports suit (imported), the landing price at that time was about 720,000 yuan, after more than a year of car purchase for more than 18,000 kilometers, the current second-hand car residual value is 686,900 yuan. It can be seen that the BMW X5 has a higher retention rate of used cars.
Write at the end
On the whole, the current Audi Q7 preferential margin and the past compared with the rebound, if not in a hurry to buy a car then it is recommended to wait, now the 2.0T model cash discount is about 130,000 yuan, 3.0T model full purchase of cash discount of 40,000 yuan, installments can also reach 48,000 yuan, but the need for more than 30,000 loan interest, but considering the overall price of Audi Q7, such a preferential situation may not be ideal. More regrettably, the current situation of audi Q7 is also relatively tense, and most models need to wait until after the Spring Festival to be delivered.
