Fuel gauges aren't perfectly linear and the low-fuel light comes on with a few gallons still in the tank, so plan your stop before the last eighth.
At 22.5 gallons, the Q7's largest tank ranks third of the seven 2021 SUVs compared here. The Land Rover Discovery carries the most (24.0 gal) and the Lexus RX 450hL the least (17.2 gal).
