Styling

The three-row midsize Lincoln Aviator comes in five trims and each one has refined styling, such as elegantly sculpted door and body panels. The Audi Q7 also has three rows of seats but only offers three trims to choose from. Conservative styling defines the 2021 Audi Q7.

Performance

Under the hood of the three lower Aviator trims is a 3.0-liter V-6 engine that delivers 400 horsepower. The two upper Lincoln Aviator trims are hybrid models with a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter engine that is paired with two electric motors for an amazing output of 494 horsepower and 630 pound-feet of torque. The Audi Q7 comes standard with either a small 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 248 horsepower, or a 3.0-liter turbocharged V-6 with 335 horsepower that is mated with electric motors for its hybrid version.

Interior and Technology

When you want more interior room, choose the Lincoln Aviator with its available 77.7 cubic feet of storage space. The Audi Q7 only has 69.9 cubic feet of storage space. Both of these luxury SUVs have infotainment systems that feature Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, as well as a Wi-Fi hot spot and navigation. The Aviator features Lincoln's CoPilot 360 bundle of driver-assist technology while the 2021 Q7 features Audi driver assistance technology.

Luxury, power, and sophistication define the elegant 2021 Lincoln Aviator and is a winner compared to the 2021 Audi Q7.
