Audi Q7 - most comfortable cars

Second-generation Audi Q7 made big strides in ride quality and handling

The Q7 delivers a luxurious drive that's on a par with the A8 limousine and the high driving position will be more relaxing for some. 

One highlight of the Q7 is the e-tron plug-in hybrid model. This boosts refinement further over its diesel counterparts courtesy of its electric drive, which allows a certain amount of silent running, either in full electric mode, or with the electric motor supplementing the engine.

The standard adaptive air-suspension gives a good mix of ride quality, accentuated by Comfort mode. The Q7 is surprisingly poised in the corners which is also helped by the optional four-wheel steering system. 

Whichever model you choose, you'll get Audi's legendary build quality, with first-rate materials and plenty of hi-tech additions. There's seating for seven, although the rearmost row isn't as roomy as some rivals, while quattro four-wheel drive is geared towards improved on-road cruising than off-road ability.
