We’re getting two flavors of the Q9: the standard Q9 and the sportier SQ9. The Digital Matrix LED lighting system is, according to Audi, smarter than the previous iteration of its laser light technology. What the Audi system actually does is reduce glare by lowering the light sent toward other motorists. For the SQ9, Audi quotes a 0-60 mph time of just 3.8 seconds and a top speed of 155 miles per hour. The 2027 Audi SQ9 starts at $119,395 when deliveries arrive on dealer lots in the fourth quarter of 2026.
