Audi Q7 Curb Weight: 4,938 lbs

The lightest 2015 record is 5,192 lbs; the lightest 2026 record is 4,938 lbs — 254 lbs lighter (4.9%).

At the top of the range the 2026 file reaches 4,938 lbs against 5,567 lbs in 2015, a 629 lbs reduction — driven by which configurations exist, not by the same truck gaining mass.

At 4,938 lbs the Q7 sits within 100 lbs of the 5,038 lbs median for the 81 vehicles EPA files under Standard Sport Utility Vehicle 4WD, with 43 of them heavier.

NHTSA records a 50/50 distribution, so the 4,938 lbs splits to roughly 2,469 lbs on the front axle and 2,469 lbs on the rear.

The two axles are not the same width either: 66.1 in of track at the front against 66.5 in at the rear, 0.4 in narrower in front.

EPA files 2 separate 2026 entries for the model, spanning 20–22 mpg combined, covering 2 engine and drive combinations (2.0L 4-cyl AWD; 3.0L 6-cyl hybrid AWD) plus their transmission choices, while NHTSA weighs the body once. Engine and gearbox choice is therefore not reflected in the figure above.
