                    [Summary] => 

Audi’s stable of SUVs in the Q-prefixed line is an imposing bunch of rides so designed and engineered to evoke not just the Ingolstadt carmaker’s obsession with keeping at the forefront of technology—spurred on by its famous ethos “Vorsprung durch Technik” (“advancement through technology”)—but its unmistakable premium heritage.

The last time I drove a Volkswagen, the car had its engine way out back and it emitted a very distinctive chugga-chugga sound. It was the family van known in various parts of the world as “Microbus,” “Kombi,” or just plain “Bus.” To VW cognoscenti, it was also known as the Type 2.

Mercedes-Benz got the ball rolling with the ML-class. Then BMW followed with the X5, Volvo with the XC90. After a while, Porsche and Volkswagen had to respond to the clamor for luxury SUVs with the Cayenne and the Touareg, respectively. So, of course, Audi had to join the fray with the Q7, now available in the Philippines with either a 4.2-liter petrol V8 or a 3-liter turbodiesel. What differentiates it from this esteemed, luxury off-roader party?

But for the savvy enthusiast or the jaded traveler, diesel is as European as making the annual pilgrimage to watch the Tour de France. A great majority of Europeans choose to drive a diesel automobile because, as expensive as gasoline is in the Philippines, it is even more so in Europe.

This writer has found a new level of respect for PGA Cars and now sincerely believes in the Audi dealership’s efforts to seriously tip the scale of the premium car buying public’s psyche in their direction. Why? Because they deliver.

Week in and week out, we get to drive the newest and fanciest cars around town — all in the name of work. Oh yes, we come home every so often in the newest BMW or Jaguar model. Occasionally we get to bring home some one-of-a-kind charmer like the rotary engine-powered Mazda RX8 (more on that in a future story). Yet despite our luck, every so often we do get our dose of reality. We don’t, after all, own the cars we test drive.
