7 Seater Cars 2012 
Audi Q7 - Four Wheel Drive SUV
The Audi Q7 is a 7 seater car or some might call it a 7 Seater SUV. The Audi Q7 is a 4 x 4 as well as a 7 seater car. However I don't think it's realistically supposed to be used off road. The Audi Q7 is one of the more expensive 7 seater cars available to buy in the UK market. The back row of seats do not give much space for passengers. The rear two seats fold and slide for more boot space. All models come with a 100 litre tank.
