2025 Audi SQ7

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2025 SQ7.

Transmission Automatic (S8)

The 2025 Audi SQ7 pairs an automatic (S8) transmission with a powertrain that returns EPA ratings of 15 city, 21 highway, and 17 combined mpg, and within the model’s 2020–2026 complaint history it records only two owner complaints—focused on steering and lane departure—along with two recalls. This places the 2025 model year between the 2024’s single complaint (the lowest in the period) and the 2021’s six complaints (the highest), indicating a stable reliability record for the generation.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

Federal data for this generation peaks in 2021 with 6 complaints and 6 recalls, then retreats in subsequent years. The 2025 model year logs 2 complaints and 2 recalls, matching 2024's recall count but rising slightly from that year's single complaint, while 2026 falls further to 0 complaints and 1 recall. Technical service bulletins decline steadily from 1,098 in 2021 to 495 in 2025 and 142 in 2026, confirming a clear post-peak downward trajectory in service activity. Positioned in the later phase of that arc, 2025 benefits from reduced TSB volume relative to earlier years, though its two complaints—split between steering/lane departure and electrical system—are not attributed to specific root causes in the federal record. Crash and fire complaints are both reported at zero for 2025. Given its placement on the downslope of generation-wide volume and the absence of any crash or fire complaints, the 2025 SQ7 represents a comparatively mature year and appears to be a sound used-buy candidate.
