Audi Rolls Out Hard-to-Resist Q7 Lease Deals This July

The 2026 Audi Q7 in a Nutshell

Despite Audi's pioneering efforts in making all-wheel drive mainstream, it was always seemingly behind when it came to crossovers. By the time the original Q7 had been revealed in 2005, BMW, Lexus, and Mercedes-Benz already had their respective models. Still, it was better late than never, and the first model had proved a big hit for the brand.

Fast forward to 2026, and we're now at the final year model of the second generation. The all-new model, which had just made its world premiere, is for 2027 and was quite literally a decade in the making. But before the current model bows out for its well-deserved retirement, a final set of equipment changes was made for 2026.

2026 Audi Q7 Lease Deals for July

At the time of writing, there are no national offers for the Q7, although we did spot several lease deals for specific states. There are also specials for both the 45 TFSI Quattro Premium and the 55 TFSI Quattro Premium Plus for a 36-month period. One of the least expensive deals we found was in New Jersey, starting at $619 per month with $4,640 due at signing for the Premium model. Go for the Premium Plus, which rises to $749 per month, with $5,837 due at signing.

Other examples? We saw $639 per month and $5,999 due at signing for the Premium, and $739 per month with $7,999 due at signing in Michigan. Meanwhile in Maryland, it's $669 per month with $5,689 due at signing (Premium) or $798 per month wth $6,543 due at signing (Premium Plus). Rates may vary from state to state, with some states having residency restrictions. Note that it's $0.25 per mile over 10,000 miles per year, and that these offers are valid until August 3, 2026.

2026 Audi Q7 Highlights

For pricing, the 2026 Q7 starts at $62,000 and goes up to $77,100, with three trims available. These trims are the base Premium, mid-spec Premium Plus, and the top-of-the-line Prestige. Standard equipment includes Quattro all-wheel drive, advanced driver assists, matrix LED headlights, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as Audi Virtual Cockpit Plus and the Audi SignatureCare service package.

The Q7 is still relatively fresh off the 2025 update that saw it getting new lights, bumpers, and a host of interior and tech upgrades. For 2026, the focus is on enhancing value, so the 55 TFSI Quattro Premium Plus gets heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear outboard seats, quad-zone climate control, soft-close doors, and acoustic class. The 2026 Prestige then gets four-wheel steering as standard, as well as OLED tail lights.

Moving to engines, all models badged 45 come with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine producing 261 hp and 273 lb-ft. The 55 models swap the turbo-four for a 3.0-liter turbo V6 with 335 hp and 369 lb-ft. V6 power is optional on the Premium and Premium Plus, while standard on the Prestige.

Final Thoughts

As Audi begins to make way for the third-generation Q7, more enticing offers are appearing for the soon-to-be-outgoing second-gen model. With more standard kit on higher trims, with little in the way of price adjustments, the company is determined to lure more people away from similarly priced and similarly sized models from its competitors. Truth be told, it's still a solid SUV, and if you don't mind the age, there are good deals to be made here.
