Shouldn't have been too hard to save all this weight with the new model since it was shrunk in principle. Like going from A6 to A4 size. I understand there might be a Q8 or Q9 to take its place in the upper premium SUV segment against the new X7 and GL-Class but the new Q7 is significantly smaller - thus lighter - than its predecessor.
