#2 – That is not a type-o

Standard TDI Specs:
233 hp
369 lbs-ft torque
TDI Acceleration 0-100 km/h 9 Seconds (that’s about 62 MPH)

And I agree with # 5 so calm down #15

Torque is more important for quick acceleration and the ability to tow.

And this thing IS an off-roader BEFORE these modifications were done (lowering, etc.) – check Audi’s web-sight:

Ok, so next step in car evolution is: 3 tons and 1000hp. Let´s make cars bigger and heavier. We add bigger engines and there´s no problem.
I just don´t see the sense of such an enormous and powerful monster. I know it´s just a fad and I hope it´ll change soon.

This thing rocks. Audi should be doing this themselves. It’s so cool it looks like Porsche put it out, not Audi.

So if they slapped this on the Q7 4.2 V8, would it be possible to do the same to the S4, A6, or A8?

I’d like to see a 580hp TT. Now that’d be something!!!

I’d hate to contradict.. but this is no offroader. This only exists because people the world over have to have an SUV because it’s popular to have an SUV. I’d bet the S8 would do everything better than this machine, and make sense without being a fad.

I hate SUVs, but like Q7. Now I think this is the best looking offroad in the market.

#8 “But why make an already very expensive car even more expensive” Because there are rich people out there who can afford it

Holy Moseeeees! But why make an already very expensive car even more expensive. I agree with #6…Just call me boring…I’d never buy one of these.

I am not sure I see the point of these I took a really expensive car and spent even more rediculous cash to modify it.

If I want a faster car I would just buy a faster car.

Diesel engines aren’t for power. They are for torque.

I dont think this SUV was meant to be lowered – look at the pics from the back and it looks very cheesy station wagon-like. I think it looks fine from the front but the Cayenne Turbo looks better from behind when lowered…

those deisel #’s do seem a little low… a chip and exhaust alone should bring the #’s above that…

WOW. I hope though that it was a typo on the TDI. If a twin turbo only has 275hp and 443 lb-ft of torque, I would hate to see what the regular TDI has.
