Only an Audi drives like an Audi: The Four Rings sum up the Audi DNA of driving characteristics, naturally also in the Q7. Five characteristics define the driving behavior: balanced, solid, controlled, precise, and effortless. The chassis, steering, drive, brake, and control systems play a crucial role in creating a sustainably safe, confident, and comfortable driving behavior. Even in the standard equipment, the Q7 offers a coherent driving feel thanks to a well-balanced steel spring suspension. Furthermore, the Q7 impresses as a reliable and safe towing vehicle - it is allowed to tow up to 3.5 tons of trailer load. As optional equipment, an electronically controlled air suspension with continuously adaptive damping system - as adaptive air suspension or adaptive air suspension sport (standard equipment for the SQ7 TFSI2) - can be selected. Depending on the driver's wishes and the situation, it varies the body trim by up to 90 millimeters and also offers level control. On highway stages, there is an automatic speed-dependent lowering of up to 30 millimeters, with adaptive air suspension sport up to 15 millimeters. In off-road conditions, at low speeds, up to 60 millimeters of additional ground clearance can be selected via the "Lift" function in Audi drive select. Additionally, the optional all-wheel steering (standard equipment for the SQ7 TFSI2) ensures an increased level of safety and comfort. At low speeds, the rear wheels turn up to five degrees in the opposite direction to the front wheels.

As part of the prestigious Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este at Lake Como, BMW Motorrad unveils its latest creation for the superbike segment: the BMW Motorrad Concept RR as the ultimate performance statement in terms of technology and design for the future generation of BMW RR models. BMW Motorrad engages in motorsport out of passion and conviction – on the tracks of the FIM Superbike World Championship as well as in numerous national and international championships. Every day, the BMW Motorrad team lives the symbiosis of engineering excellence and an unyielding drive for top performance anew. This dedication is reflected in every detail of our superbikes, and the valuable insights gained from racing are incorporated into our production models. In terms of propulsion, the BMW Motorrad Concept RR relies on the water-cooled inline four-cylinder engine of the world champion machine from the FIM Superbike World Championship, which already delivers more than 230 hp (169 kW). This promises pure adrenaline in terms of propulsion and reinforces the leadership claim in the superbike segment. Accompanying this are the electronic control and regulation systems that come directly from the WSBK M 1000 RR, such as the engine management, traction control, and engine brake.
