Recommended Brake Controller for a 2021 Audi SQ7
Question:
I am looking for a trailer brake controller for my 2021 Audi SQ7 with a factory installed tow package. I see units for the standard Audi Q7 but nothing listed for my 2021 SQ7. What trailer brake models do you suggest for a trailer with two electric brake axles and my SQ7? Adapter wiring harness needed? Thank you!

Expert Reply:
The best brake controller for your 2021 Audi SQ7 is going to be the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller item # C51180. The Echo plugs directly into your Audi's 7-Way connector and allows you to control the settings through an app on your phone. The Echo is also a proportional brake controller that slows or stops your trailer when your Audi decelerates. It uses Bluetooth to communicate with your phone so you will never have to worry about losing signal. If your phone dies it automatically uses the default settings you program in.
There are no other compatible brake controllers that have wiring adapters that work with your 2021 Audi SQ7. I have linked a review video below.
If you like the reassurance of a manual override button you will want the Manual Override Button for Curt Echo Brake Controller item # C83HR. You can mount it wherever you want it inside your vehicle.
