Given how hard the engine has to work to move that box around, though, the
fuel economy isn't
stellar — but it's the
number one most
fuel - efficient minivan on the market.
Mated to a responsive, paddle - shiftable 8 - speed Tiptronic automatic transmission teamed with Audi's Quattro AWD system, the engine takes this handsome and notably lighter hauler from 0 - 60 mph in a claimed 5.7 seconds, gives it a
stellar 7,700 - pound towing capability, and earns 19 mpg city / 25 mpg highway
fuel economy numbers from the EPA compared to the 16/22 comparative stats of the previous - generation Q7 with the same powertrain.
