The Audi Q7 has achieved a new milestone in vehicle safety, earning five stars in Euro NCAP safety tests and becoming the first production vehicle to score 100% in the Post-Crash Safety category.

The achievement highlights Audi’s comprehensive approach to safety, which extends beyond accident prevention and occupant protection during a collision to include emergency response and support for rescue teams after an accident.

Safety That Continues After a Collision

The Audi Q7 features technologies designed to support occupants and emergency responders in critical situations. One of the key features is Audi connect emergency call, which can automatically activate the emergency response process following a serious accident and provide important vehicle and location information to support rescue teams.

The multicollision brake also helps reduce the risk of further collisions. After detecting a collision that requires intervention, the system can automatically bring the vehicle to a stop and activate the hazard warning lights to alert surrounding traffic.

Technology That Supports Rescue Operations

In addition to its emergency response systems, the Audi Q7 achieved full marks in areas related to providing rescue information and ensuring access to occupants after a collision.

Vehicle-specific rescue guides provide important information about vehicle components and recommended rescue procedures, helping emergency responders assess the situation more quickly and determine the appropriate actions.

The assessment also considers whether doors can be unlocked and opened after a collision, including situations in which the low-voltage electrical supply has been affected.

Comprehensive Safety in the Audi Q7

Alongside its achievement in post-crash safety, the Audi Q7 combines advanced safety technologies with a spacious and versatile interior, available in five-, six-, or seven-seat configurations.

This milestone reflects Audi’s commitment to developing comprehensive safety solutions that support both vehicle occupants and emergency responders throughout the different stages of an accident.
