    Audi A7 Sportback (4G8) 2010-2017

    Audi A7 Sportback

    The Audi A7 Sportback (internally designated Typ 4G) is an executive car produced by Audi launched at the 2010 Paris Motor Show in a five-door hatchback body style. The A7 is based on the Volkswagen Group MLB platform, which is shared with the 2011 fourth-generation Audi A6 (C7)

    The A7 marked Audi's return to the executive hatchback market since the 1970 three-door Audi 100 Coupe of 1970 and the 1977 five-door 100 Avant. It was announced at the Pinakothek der Moderne art museum in Munich on 27 July 2010 and débuted at the 2010 Paris Motor Show. The car was launched in the US at the New York Auto Show in April 2011 as a 2012 model.

    The A7 was preceded by a concept car, the Audi Sportback concept shown at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show. The concept car first spawned the Audi A5 Sportback which was released September 2009 as a 2010 model.


    Four V6 engine options are available at launch: 2.8 L (201 bhp/150 kW; 204 PS) and supercharged 3.0 L (295 bhp/220 kW; 299 PS) petrol engines and two 3.0 L diesel engines with either 201 bhp (150 kW; 204 PS) or 241 bhp (180 kW; 244 PS).

    The North American 2012 A7 is only available with the 3.0 L supercharged TFSI V6 developing 310 bhp (231 kW; 314 PS) and 325 lb·ft (441 N·m) combined with an eight-speed automatic transmission.

    A bit 'meh', althought worlds better than the 5 GT, i don't know if they are comparable, maybe more of a match for the CLS?

    The headlighs and rear seem like they where cut into the body.

    The things i really like in this are the wing and the profile, i just wish they had been a bit less lazy with the rest.

    That's the car the 5er GT should've been. This with BMW driving dynamics and I'd be queuing (or however it's spelt) for one.

    Am I sleeping? I got used to think that you would rather drive skateboard than Audi.
    However, I like the car too - almost an excellent long distance tourer for four persons.
    I think it should be compared to Panamera, while 5GT is rather a rival to A5 Sportback.

    Yes, it's and Audi and I wouldn't have one. But if I forget about the badge and the idiotic mechanical layout I rather like this (and the A5 Sportsback too).
