Bought a V6 2025 Q7 Prestige, after owning a 2018 Q7 V6 Prestige, and the new Q7 did not feel very quick off the line in the sports mode - or as quick as 2018 (turbo lag vs instant supercharger boost likely having to do with it). Didn't even test drive an SQ7 - couldn't justify the cost (the Q7 in Prestige trim is already plenty expensive), and it would have likely spoiled the Q7 experience completely. Your review definitely justifies my decision :)
