Drivers are drawn to the Audi Q9 because it delivers the space and versatility they’re looking for while still offering the performance, technology, and premium feel they expect from Audi.

The Next Chapter of Audi
What does all-wheel steering do on the Audi Q9?
Available all-wheel steering helps the Audi Q9 feel more manageable in everyday driving. At lower speeds, the rear wheels turn slightly to reduce the turning circle, making parking and tight maneuvers easier. At higher speeds, they turn with the front wheels to improve stability through lane changes and highway curves.
Power That Pulls Ahead
The Audi Q9 keeps things simple with one engine across all three trims, but with this much performance on tap, one is more than enough. Its 2.9L twin-turbo V6 delivers 429 HP and 442 lb-ft of torque, reaching 60 mph from a standstill in just 4.9 seconds for quick, confident acceleration when merging, passing, or pulling away from a stoplight.
Paired with an 8-speed Tiptronic® transmission, the powertrain also tows up to 7,700 pounds. That capability makes it easy to bring along a camper or boat for weekend trips, or haul a utility trailer loaded with landscaping supplies or home improvement materials.
Composed in Every Condition
Standard quattro® all-wheel drive gives Audi Q9 drivers the confidence to tackle changing road and weather conditions. Audi drive select lets you tailor the ride to match your preferences and changing conditions with these six modes:
- balanced
- dynamic
- comfort
- offroad
- individual
- assistant
The driving experience is further enhanced by the Q9’s adaptive front and rear air suspension, which helps smooth out uneven pavement, potholes, and expansion joints for a more comfortable ride, while available all-wheel steering adds agility in tight spaces and greater composure on the highway.
What is Audi exclusive?
Audi exclusive lets you personalize your Audi with a wide range of available colors, paint finishes, materials, and interior details. From upholstery and trim to stitching and accents, it gives you the flexibility to create a combination that reflects your personal style and makes your Audi uniquely yours.
A Flagship Presence
As Audi’s full-size SUV, the Q9 makes a bold first impression with a commanding silhouette that appears to move even when standing still. Its signature Singleframe grille flows seamlessly into the headlights and extends into the lower fascia, creating a strong visual presence above standard 21-inch wheels, with available 22- and 23-inch designs adding even more impact.
Standard LED headlights with three digital DRL signatures and LED taillights with dynamic turn signals help the Q9 stand out day or night. Available lighting features include first-of-its-kind curved digital OLED rear lights with customizable signatures and warning signals, plus:
- Advanced turning indicator – projects a dynamic arrow onto the road surface
- Digital matrix LED headlights – adaptive high beams help reduce glare and maximize visibility
- Illuminated Singleframe grille – highlights the iconic Audi design after dark
- Door-projected light – casts a welcome mat onto the ground
Each element of the Audi Q9 contributes to its distinctive appearance and stature as the flagship SUV in the Audi lineup.

Standard seating for seven provides easy access to the third row and room for up to three child seats in the second row, while the available 6-seat configuration adds individual, power-adjustable second-row captain’s chairs for a more exclusive experience.
