The level of orders has exceeded expectations, according Ralph Weyler, head of sales and marketing for Audi. More than half of customers have ordered the car in black. Preferred options include navigation system with DVD, adaptive air suspension, Bluetooth, three rows of seats, the Open Sky roof, as well as the assisted parking system with reversing camera.
Audi has embarked on a marketing progamme, called ‘Q7 Talk of the Town’ in which the car is presented to large audiences at evening shows.
