Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Mercedes-Benz G-Class than in the Audi Q7, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Audi Q7 offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, making it a little more comfortable for the driver and front passenger.

Convenience
The Audi Q7 requires fewer stops at the gas station than the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, making it more convenient to drive.

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 Mercedes-Benz G-Class, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Audi Q7 is much wider than the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. 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 Mercedes-Benz G-Class.

Handling
The Audi Q7 has a smaller turning radius than the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Audi Q7 has a lot less horsepower than the Mercedes-Benz G-Class.

Powertrain
The Audi Q7 has much lower torque than the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
The Audi Q7 offers greater seating capacity than the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, 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 Mercedes-Benz G-Class.
