Audi’s biggest SUV just got real numbers for Britain. The Q9 is on sale in the UK from £103,900, with first deliveries due in November 2026 — putting the new flagship right next to entry-level Range Rover money and above BMW X7 and Mercedes GLS territory.
Two trims only. Edition 1 starts the range with 22-inch Audi Sport wheels, S Line bodykit, Matrix LED lights, air suspension, rear-wheel steering, quattro, and Audi’s largest panoramic roof yet. Inside: perforated Nappa across all seven seats, heated second and third rows, four-zone climate, plus the triple-screen setup (14.5-inch center, 11.9-inch cluster, 12.3-inch passenger display) and Bang & Olufsen audio.
Vorsprung jumps to £113,250 with 23-inch wheels, digital Matrix headlights, the world’s first curved digital OLED taillights (eight selectable signatures), carbon trim, and the 22-speaker B&O 4D system. A six-seat Lounge package adds another £5,000 if you want captain’s chairs instead of a full third row.
Power is the European story: a 3.0 V6 TDI mild hybrid with an electric compressor — about 299 hp and a chunky 465 lb-ft — paired to an eight-speed auto and quattro. North America gets petrol V6/V8 instead; UK buyers live with diesel for now, with gasoline and plug-in options expected later for Europe.
At over five meters long, the Q9 is Audi’s first true full-size SUV flagship. Orders are open now if you want one of the early November deliveries.
