A Facelift for the Ages

A Facelift for the Ages

While not an entirely new model, the 2025 Audi Q7 introduces a substantial facelift, breathing new life into a model that first hit the roads in 2015. The front clip receives a fresh look with a redesigned Singleframe grille, maintaining its substantial size with an octagon-themed pattern within the thick surround. The lower fascia boasts revamped corner vents with a vertical orientation, complementing the largely unchanged LED headlights. However, the optional HD Matrix lights now come with laser technology, a first for the Q7, offering expanded vision with improved high beam range. One of the standout features of the new Q7 is its optional customizable laser headlights. Audi takes innovation to the next level with a laser diode for each light, activated with high beams at speeds exceeding 43 mph. This system collaborates with 24 LEDs to significantly enhance the high beam range, providing not only improved visibility but also a unique and personalized driving experience. Drivers can choose from four lighting signatures for the daytime running lights, allowing for a touch of individuality on the road.

Interior and Exterior Enhancements

Inside, the base model now comes with standard contrast stitching, 19-inch wheels, an aluminum roof rails gloss package, and a rearview camera with parking assist plus. Opting for additional features unlocks a range of nine decorative inlays to personalize the greenhouse. The exterior palette expands with three new colors: Ascari Blue, Sakhir Gold, and Chili Red. New wheel options, ranging from 20 to 22 inches, add a touch of flair to the Q7's exterior.

In the tech realm, the 2025 Audi Q7 introduces third-party apps for the first time, allowing seamless integration of services like Spotify directly into the infotainment system. The driver-assist features have been upgraded, providing various warning displays for the virtual cockpit, including lane-change warnings and distance alerts, among others. These advancements enhance both convenience and safety, making the driving experience more enjoyable.

Powertrain Options

Powertrain Options

The powertrain lineup for European buyers remains consistent, offering a choice between a 3.0-liter diesel in two tunes (228 or 282 horsepower), a gas-burning V6 with 335 hp, and a performance-focused SQ7 trim with a 500-hp twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8. The SQ7 boasts additional enhancements, such as black trim, oval exhaust tips, and a chin spoiler, propelling it from 0 to 100 kmh in a mere 4.1 seconds.

The 2025 Audi Q7 brings a refreshing update to the well-established luxury SUV, combining a bold facelift, customizable laser headlights, and advanced tech features. As it begins its journey in the European market, the anticipation builds for its imminent arrival in North America, promising a driving experience that marries style, innovation, and performance.

2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1: The Fastest, Most Powerful Corvette Ever

Chevrolet has unleashed the unthinkable in the Corvette ZR1. The King of the Hill returns with the most powerful V8 ever produced in America from an auto manufacturer, mind-bending specs, and iconic design to challenge the world’s best supercars in both coupe and convertible variants.

• Corvette ZR1 features a 5.5L, twin-turbocharged DOHC flat-plane crank V8 engine dubbed the LT7.

• The LT7 engine produces 1,064 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 828 lb-ft (1123 Nm) of torque at 6,000 rpm, per SAE guidelines — the most power ever from a factory Corvette and the most powerful V8 ever produced in America from an auto manufacturer.

• Corvette ZR1 boasts a GM-estimated top speed of over 215 mph (346 Kph) on the racetrack and will dispatch the quarter mile with a GM-estimated sub-10-second time1.

• Purposeful carbon fiber aero package creates over 1,200 pounds (544 Kg) of downforce at top speed.

• ZR1 revives one of the most iconic styles in Corvette history: the split rear window.

“The team that revolutionized Corvette with a mid-engine architecture took on another challenge: take ZR1 to the next level,” said Scott Bell, vice president, Chevrolet. “Corvette ZR1 is about pushing the envelope with raw power and cutting-edge innovation. From Stingray, to Z06, E-Ray, and now ZR1, the Corvette family continues to elevate with each new iteration — and challenge the best in the world.”

The Street-Legal Red Bull RB17 Hypercar

The automotive world is abuzz with the announcement that Lanzante, the renowned vehicle specialist known for transforming track-focused machines into road-going marvels, is set to convert the Red Bull RB17 hypercar into a street-legal version. This ambitious project aims to bring Adrian Newey’s V-10 beast from the racetrack to the public roads, and while the challenge is daunting, Lanzante's track record suggests they are up for it. The Red Bull RB17, designed by the legendary Adrian Newey, is a testament to cutting-edge engineering and performance. The track-only version of the hypercar weighs a mere 1,984 pounds, making it lighter than a Mazda MX-5 Miata ND. Yet, despite its featherweight design, it boasts a staggering 1,200 horsepower. This immense power allows it to lap Silverstone a second quicker than a Formula 1 car, according to recent simulations.
