Comparison Review

Comfort
The Audi Q7 offers a bit more room for passengers in the back seat than the BMW X5 PHEV. The Audi Q7 offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the BMW X5 PHEV, making it a little more comfortable for the driver and front passenger.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the Audi Q7 is a better financial choice over the BMW X5 PHEV, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
The Audi Q7 is a little narrower than the BMW X5 PHEV, so you'll have an easier time getting in and out of the car in a tight parking spot. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Audi Q7, which is slightly longer than the BMW X5 PHEV.

Handling
The Audi Q7 has the same turning radius as the BMW X5 PHEV, so they both maneuver the same in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Audi Q7 has a lot less horsepower than the BMW X5 PHEV.

Powertrain
The Audi Q7 has much lower torque than the BMW X5 PHEV, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
The Audi Q7 offers greater seating capacity than the BMW X5 PHEV, making it a better choice for those who find themselves chauffeuring others around. You'll be able to fit about the same amount of groceries in the Audi Q7 as you will in the BMW X5 PHEV.
