Demand for Audi ’s new large Q7 crossover has been stronger than expected, according to trade publication Automotive News. Twelve inches longer than the Porsche Cayenne and Volkswagen Touareg , the Q7 was launched in a time when many consumers were moving away from large SUVs. But the German automaker sold 1,900 Q7s in the U.S. last month — 700 more than the company had expected. Audi product planner Filip Brabec told Auto News the Q7 has been the “highest pre-sold car that we have ever had.” Demand has also been strong in Europe. Audi is even considering increasing production to keep up with demand.
