This Is What Next Level Looks Like: 2027 Audi Q9

The all-new 2027 Audi Q9 marks Audi's boldest move into new territory yet, and it's operating on a properly grand scale. Seven seats come standard. Six-seat comfort is available. Standard quattro all-wheel drive handles the realities of Canadian driving. Yet the Q9's most compelling story isn't about size at all, it's about details like phone-controlled doors, adjustable roof transparency, and audio you can physically feel, proof that Audi didn't just build bigger, it built smarter.

Six Seats Can Feel Like First Class

The 2027 Audi Q9 comes standard with seven-passenger seating, giving families three usable rows right from the start. An available six-passenger arrangement swaps the second-row bench for two individual captain's chairs, creating more personal space for passengers travelling in the middle row. Audi carries that upscale treatment through the rest of the cabin with soft leather, modern wood inlays and sculpted ambient lighting, turning passenger space into something that feels deliberately premium rather than simply practical.

The Roof Has Its Own Settings

Audi's largest openable panoramic glass roof becomes one of the Q9's more unusual cabin features. Instead of relying solely on a traditional shade, switchable transparency lets occupants adjust how much light enters the interior. That gives the cabin a different atmosphere depending on the weather, time of day or personal preference, while still providing the open feeling of a panoramic roof.


Serious Strength Comes Standard

The all-new 2027 Audi Q9 uses a 2.9-litre twin-turbocharged V6 producing 429 horsepower, with standard quattro all-wheel drive managing traction and control. Audi quotes a brisk 0 to 100 km/h time of 5.2 seconds, an impressive figure for a full-size three-row SUV. Equip the available trailer hitch and the Q9 can tow up to 7,700 pounds, giving its powertrain a useful job when boats, recreational equipment or larger trailers become part of the weekend plan.


Headlights Adjust While You Drive

The Q9's Audi Digital Matrix LED headlights do far more than switch between high and low beams. They adapt the projected light in real time, helping maximize illumination while reducing glare directed toward oncoming motorists. Dynamic indicators add Audi's recognizable sweeping movement. Together, the technology makes lighting both a visibility tool and one of the Q9's distinctive signatures after dark.

Doors Listen to Your Phone

Getting into the 2027 Audi Q9 can be surprisingly high-tech. Power-opening and power-closing doors can be activated with a button or through the myAudi mobile app. It is the sort of convenience that may sound small until you're approaching the SUV carrying bags, loading passengers or simply want the vehicle ready before you reach it.


Audio You Don't Just Hear

The available Bang & Olufsen 4D Premium sound system takes an unconventional approach to immersive audio. Headrest speakers position sound closer to individual occupants, while Seat Beat technology synchronizes tactile signals with the music. The seats effectively become part of the sound system, adding a physical sensation to selected audio and creating an experience conventional speakers alone cannot replicate.
