Autobild: Audi Q7 vs BMW X5 vs Porsche Cayenne - 03-14-2007, 05:55 PM

Eni wanted me to scan this. Autobild magazines are too large for my scanner so I just scanned the most important parts.

1st Place: Audi Q7 463/600
The Audi Q7 is an allround balanced SUV. It's reasonably sporty, comfortable, the load and tow capacity are good.

2nd Place: BMW X5 446/600
The BMW focuses too much on dynamics and has a poor load and tow capacity, not ideal for the busy family life. Comfort is so-so. The most fuel efficient of the trio with 14.6 L / 100 km average.

3rd Place: Porsche Cayenne 436/600
The Porsche Cayenne was the sportiest, best-handling and fastest (6.8 seconds 0-100 km/h) but also the least comfortable and has an extreme appetite for gasoline. High costs at an unpractical fuel consumption mean last place. This despite having the best offroad characteristics.




THE TRACK TEST


1st Place: Porsche Cayenne
This truck was made for the track. No compromises whatsoever here.

2nd Place: BMW X5
Fast and capable, but not completely made for solely racing it on the racetrack.

3rd Place: Audi Q7
Sporty, but not as sporty as the BMW and Porsche. Excessive body roll on the track - even at 80 km/h.
