Audi has a new flagship model line and — given the sales success of SUVs — it comes as little surprise that it's the 2027 Q9 and SQ9 that are the fresh flag-bearers for Ingolstadt. Bigger and more luxurious than the Q7, and with more seating than the Q8, the Q9 and SQ9 are actually Audi's first full-size SUVs. The new 2027 Q7 and SQ7, announced in June, marked the first attempt at reinvention there; now, the Q9 and SQ9 load up on performance, luxury, and tech to hold Mercedes and others at bay. AudiFor the Q9, the goal is lavish transportation in a bigger model (though the roughly 29 inches of third row legroom match that of the Q7). As for the 2027 SQ9 — which starts at $119,395 (including destination) — that's a reminder of Audi's still-impressive gas engine options.
