Pros: The Audi A7 offers the stunning lines of a coupe without losing the doors. A grand coupe if ever there was one, the A7 offers style and a great drive.
Cons: Like most Audis in the lineup right now, the A7 looks a bit long in the tooth while its competition gets updated and revamped.
2015 Audi A7 Price and Fuel Economy: If you exclude the hyped up RS7, there are two available models in the A7 lineup, the A7 3.0 TFSI and the 3.0 TDI. Two different engines offer performance and fuel efficiency differences, as well as a bit of a price jump.
- 2015 Audi A7 3.0 TFSI Progressiv $70,400
- 2015 Audi A7 3.0 TFSI Technik $75,800
- 2015 Audi A7 3.0 TDI Progressiv $72,900
- 2015 Audi A7 3.0 TDI Technik $78,300
As for fuel numbers, if you opt for the 3.0L TFSI you’re looking at 13.1L/100km in the city and 8.5L/100km on the highway. Naturally, the diesel mill churns out much more pleasing fuel economy ratings at 9.6L/100km in the city and 6.2L/100km on the highway.
Powertrain: As mentioned above, there are two engines available, both 3.0L V6 mills, one being a gas-powered supercharged unit the other being a diesel-driven turbocharged mill. For the 3.0L gas engine, power numbers are as follows: 310 horespower and 325 lb-ft of torque.
If you opt for the diesel unit, you’ll be plenty satisfied with the 240 horespower and 406 lb-ft of torque.
Naturally, Audi’s Quattro AWD system is standard across the board, no matter which trim or engine your choose. Same goes for the Tiptronic 8-speed automatic transmission.
Changes and Improvements: The Audi A7 has seen very few changes since it’s birth in 2010. Minor facelifts and interior accent changes have occurred, but nothing earth shattering. Yet.
Cargo Capacity: Thanks to the Audi A7’s unique four-door coupe silhouette and shape, it boasts a massive trunk offering up 694L of cargo space.
Safety: The 2015 Audi A7 comes equipped with all manner of standard safety equipment and airbags.
