Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2026 Q7.
The 2026 Audi Q7 is equipped with an Automatic (S8) transmission and achieves EPA-estimated fuel economy of 20 mpg city, 26 mpg highway, and 22 mpg combined. Serving as the final model year in a complaint dataset spanning 2007 through 2026—a range that saw complaints peak at 316 in 2017 and drop to a single reported issue in 2024—it represents the endpoint of a documented reliability arc. That positioning situates the vehicle at the lower-complaint end of its tracked lifespan, distinct from the higher volumes recorded in earlier years.
