The 2022 Porsche Cayenne vs. 2022 Audi Q7 crossover is a hotly contested rivalry in the world of high-performance vehicles. The two have been battling for supremacy for years now and it looks like there's no end to this competition yet! Both cars offer an unparalleled level of comfort, performance, and luxury that make them stand out from the crowd. In this article we're going to take a look at all the differences between these two elite SUVs so you can decide which one is right for you.

Design & Style

  • Exterior Design

The 2022 Porsche Cayenne is a vehicle with timeless good looks. It has a low, wide stance and classic SUV proportions. The sheetmetal is crisp and precise, but not overly sharp or angular for this segment of vehicles.

The 2022 Audi Q7 has more of an upright shape than the Cayenne and its bodywork isn't as well-integrated into its overall shape, but it still looks great from some angles. Presentation aside, both SUVs are pretty unique in their appearance compared to other vehicles in this class.

  • Interior Design

The 2022 Porsche Cayenne interior is a stylish yet functional place to be. It's beautifully designed, with clean lines and an impressive attention to detail. The dashboard rises up to create an airy feeling, while still giving you enough space for all your items in the center console and front cupholders. The materials used are top-notch, featuring soft leather throughout.

The 2022 Audi Q7 features a similarly luxurious design for its interior as well; however, it does not have quite as much flair as does its German counterpart from Porsche. Its dashboard has more straight lines than curves, which may make some people feel like they're driving in a plastic box rather than something elegant like the Cayenne's interior design (although both vehicles feature similar materials).

Technology & Safety

The 2022 Porsche Cayenne comes standard with a 17-speaker Burmester audio system while the 2022 Audi Q7 has an optional 14-speaker Bose surround sound system available as an upgrade. If you don't want to pay extra for the premium sound systems on these vehicles then you'll be happy to know that both models come standard with Bluetooth phone connectivity, three USB ports (including one located in the cargo area), HD Radio, SiriusXM Satellite Radio, WiFi hotspot capability and several other features.

Both of these SUVs also offer plenty of safety features included as standard equipment: rear cross traffic alert; adaptive cruise control; forward collision warning; lane departure warning; blind spot monitoring; active lane keep assist; automatic high beam assist and more!
