Audi claims the SQ7 can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in 4.8 seconds, and the top speed is limited to 250 km/h (155.3 mph). In the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC), it consumes 7.2 liters per 100 kilometers (32.7 US mpg). This corresponds to CO2 emissions of 189 grams per kilometer (304.2 g/mi).

The SQ7 features a sound actuator in the exhaust system which amplifies the eight-cylinder sound. The driver can vary the amount of sound by using the Audi drive select system.
