en.Wedoany.com Reported - On May 12, Audi unveiled the interior design of the Q9 for the first time. The new model is built on the PPC platform and will offer a variety of powertrains, including V6, V8, and plug-in hybrid options, with derivative models such as the SQ9 and Q9 Horch Edition also planned. The Audi Q9 is scheduled for its official launch on July 29 and is expected to enter the Chinese market in early 2027.
The front row of the new vehicle adopts Audi's latest family design language, featuring a three-screen layout already seen in models like the Audi A6 and Q6L e-tron, with a head-up display (HUD) positioned in front of the driver. The gear selector uses a column-mounted shifter design, integrating the wiper and turn signal controls into a single stalk. In terms of features, it offers a front wireless phone charging pad, heated steering wheel, and heated, ventilated, and massaging front seats.
The interior color scheme is dominated by matte-finished black and gray tones, with material options including wool fabric, Dinamica microfiber, leather, or Nappa leather. The vehicle is equipped with an Interactive Ambient Light (IAL) strip that can synchronize with the Bang & Olufsen sound system to create scene-based effects. The front seat headrests feature integrated speakers with built-in vibration units, delivering a 4D audio experience.
The Audi Q9 comes standard with power-assisted doors that support one-touch opening and closing, controllable via the car key, the multimedia interface system, the brake pedal, or the seat belt buckle. Seating is available in 6- or 7-seat configurations; the 6-seat version features two independent second-row seats with heating and ventilation functions, while the third-row seats offer power-folding capability. The vehicle is equipped with a panoramic sunroof measuring approximately 1.5 square meters, divided into 9 independently adjustable transparency zones. The top-of-the-line model features a light curtain formed by 84 LED light sources, offering 30 color choices and the ability to synchronize with the ambient lighting.
In terms of exterior design, the new vehicle adopts Audi's family styling, characterized by a signature large front grille paired with split headlight units. Regarding powertrains, it is expected to offer V6, V8, and plug-in hybrid versions. Among them, the 4.0T twin-turbocharged V8 engine combined with a 48V electric motor forms a mild-hybrid system, delivering a maximum output of 460 horsepower (338 kW) and a peak torque of 660 Nm, mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission.
