"The Audi A7 looks like a beautiful and elegant coupe, but it's actually a luxurious and practical five-door Executive Express".

The Audi A7 Sportback is a welcome addition to the executive car class. If you are in the market at this level, previously limited to traditional sedans like the BMW 5 Series, Audi A6 and Mercedes E-class to think liked with those who otherwise prepared for as the Lexus GS made with the left field selection Volvo S80 or the Infiniti Q70. These cars were Saloons, however, and it took the launch of the Mercedes CLS in 05 the end of the dominance of the "three-box" (hood, passenger compartment and trunk) Limousine mark.
Audi was relative to the game late, when it launched on the A7 Sportback in 2010 to life - one year after the also unusual BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo - but in many ways it was worth the wait. Essentially a stylized version of the sedan A6 A7 has a luxurious interior with a truly "premium" feel, a range of efficient engines and - marking it out from the competition - complete with rear seats that can be folded flat a hatchback boot, , A facelift in 2015 brought news of the outside design, economy and emissions improvements.

The A7 with a petrol and three diesel engines available. The 328bhp 3.0-liter petrol is strong enough from 0-62mph obtain the A7 in just 5.3 seconds, but with the fuel economy of 36.2mpg and an annual road tax bill of £ 230, it's hard to recommend. Audi also makes a performance-oriented S7 model, and the particularly sporty RS7. Both come with a powerful 4.0-liter petrol engine, the S7 in just 4.6 seconds from 0-62mph go, and the RS7 to manage it in under four seconds. With the S7 costs nearly £ 20,000 more than an entry-level A7 and the RS7 addition of either £ 20,000 or 27,000 £ again, depending on whether you are both in the standard 552bhp version or the 597bhp performance version hard to justify.
The diesel engines are a better bet. All are 3.0-liter, means having an output of 215, 268 or 316bhp power the real world, is comparable to the gasoline, but efficiency is far superior. Those for maximum parsimony should seek 215bhp Ultra model which. Able 62.8mpg and costs just £ 30 per year tax thanks to its low CO2 emissions A 0-62mph time of 7.2 seconds means it is not exactly a slouch, either. At the other end of the scale, which can go twin-turbocharged 316bhp Diesel from 0-62mph in 5.2 seconds while returning 44.8mpg and £ 210 per year costs in the vehicle tax.
All A7S with Audi coming quattro all-wheel drive system, apart from the "entry-level" diesel, which also stands as a front wheel drive as available. There is no manual transmission, but automatic operation is smooth and the car goes well.

A7 in three trim levels available stands, with SE Board begins and the range topping line mid-range S, the Black Edition increases through. All are well equipped, comes with leather seats, four-zone air conditioning, cruise control, a power-operated tailgate, navigation and keyless entry. The S line model costs around £ 3,000 more than the standard car, with the Black Edition add another £ 4,000 to that.
We trim the 215bhp Diesel Ultra model in SE Board recommend. This is more than enough power for most have, but promises excellent economy. The trim level, mainly focused on (admittedly appealing) aesthetic upgrades, but seem pricey. Specifying a camera is recommended, although, like the smooth lines at the expense of limited rearward visibility A7 come.
On the road, the A7 confidence-inspiring grip and makes a pretty good job you made of insulating material from potholes and poor road conditions - although this is less true with S line and Black Edition cars, which is lower, firmer suspension and have larger wheels, you can omit fortunately no cost when ordering. The A7 is not the last word in driver involvement, but it is smooth and quiet, thanks in part to Audi "acoustic windshield", the wind noise is designed to minimize.
Occupants are treated to a well-designed and luxurious interior, even if it is not quite as elegant as newer models in the Audi range as the TT. The rear seats are three passengers and offer plenty of legroom, although larger passengers will find room close - another compromise by the A7 coupe-like appearance. The middle rear seat is tight and not a comfortable prospect of long distances.
, based on the A6 saloon means the A7 should have tried and proven mechanics. Unfortunately, the 81. Place the end of the A6 (150 cars), along with a 131-place result for reliability in our 2016 Driver Power customer satisfaction survey, has possible concerns for A7 customers. Safety is unlikely that a concern to be, however: while the A7 did not go through his own individual assessment that scored A6 the full five stars in its Euro-NCAP tests.
