The four-door coupe phenomenon, started in 2005 by the Mercedes-Benz CLS, has grown in recent years to include cars like the VW CC, Aston Martin Rapide and even crossovers like the BMW X6. Now Audi is getting in on the act with the A7, a car that blends elements from a sedan, wagon and coupe together to create a tasty new concoction.

I was valet parking and this car rolled up and I didn't see the front only and back. I was somewhat far away and I didn't recognize it at all. I was stunned that this was an Audi. Very nice car.

Why are so many people bothered by the 'odd' placed start-stop button? You will only use it when you start and when you stop. Buttons you use frequently should be near.

Kees Closed because although not too often used that’s even more reason to keep it off the center console. Just about every other manufacturer if not all put it on the instrument panel. Too much risk of accidentally hitting the button while driving. Passenger could accidentally hit it. Although I am pretty sure there are safeguards to prevent it from doing anything while in motion still not one of the best ergonomic moves by Audi. Convenient location for the one time it gets used but I personally think that is a waste of Center console space. Putting the start stop button on the MMI controller is one thing but at least have a cover guard over it. Even bigger FIBAR is the 2018 A4. I had one as a service loaner last year for a couple of weeks. The cup holders were placed forward of the shifter between the shifter and the lower part of the center stack. That cup of whatever runs the risk of spilling on the shifter and eventually dripping on and shorting out electrical components in that area. Just got a 2012 A6 premium plus and cup holders are correctly ergonomically designed behind the shifter between the shifter and center console. Easy access for both front seat occupants on in my case, space for coffee and water cups on my road trips. What they did finally get right or shall I say right compared to my logic and compared to other manufacturers. The drivers instrument panel. Fuel door on the right, side of vehicle, fuel gauge right side of instrument panel. Yes it still even has the arrow to remind you. Kudos for that. Conversely the coolant reservoir is on the drivers side of the engine compartment, coolant temp gauge on the driver side. I am not a ergonomics expert by any mean but that should be basic common sense design.

Would be nice if you told us what trim level is as tested ??

Why do you guys play the same crap music track on every review?

@MattyH1992 13 лет назад

Favourite Audi ever.

@aparchedwarlus 13 лет назад

My favorite practical Audi

@conceptcs 13 лет назад

@TheEryk03 i would love to take those RS models but they are not offered in USA :( sad...

@ers1027 13 лет назад

@ ghrpdx most coupes still have b-pillars? Honda Accord coupe example. The only coupe to come to mind that doesn't is the Mercedes E coupe.

@hekangkevin 13 лет назад

Nice car , Good review !

@jorgekontor 13 лет назад

@MrBazpoker in what aspect? the review itself or the car?

@mz9393mz 13 лет назад

The lack of a center rear seat is just dumb. But this is a gorgeous car, I have to admit. Nice review.

@jorgekontor 13 лет назад

@seauryakumar is a view point, i been inside both and will take the A7 over the Merc any time.. in full spect is simply safer thanks to the AWD (very handy in rain and snow) and better equipped.

@Jahwarrior91 13 лет назад

I love everything about this car except the fact that they didnt make it a 5 seater

@AnonymoussourceL0L 13 лет назад

I believe Audi said the A7 was inspired by the rapide, and it shows.

@letsgowarriors30 11 лет назад

Mainly because it isn't sold in the US :(

@sdijnfpo0jaisf 13 лет назад

the 4-door "coupe" roof line is very questionable to me. it's the result of a design decision to prioritize form over function. i think it's one of those things that could become a pain-in-the-ars very quickly if you drive around many (adult-sized) back seat passengers...

@9886635574 13 лет назад

Nice location... where is that place???

@tomban9737 7 лет назад

Does the A7 have electric steering?

@indyrock8148 Год назад

There was a option for 5 seats

@AnonymoussourceL0L 13 лет назад

This is really the only Audi I've liked so far. A5 is okay, and R8 is fine (bit a a bore though). The A7 is pretty nice though.

@Barobran92 13 лет назад

Awesome car, but i find it odd that my Focus has 10 airbags standard, but this has 6.

@LRS905 12 лет назад

Damn, I would be crying if I had to use this beauty for extreme cargo hauling...hell, I had an acquaintance who once used his 1993 3 series to carry some soil in the trunk...and the soil was not contained in bags...geez...

@XLPerformance666 4 года назад

@seauryakumar 13 лет назад

Reviewers are saying that new CLS is better. hmmm

@tallen35875 13 лет назад

6 airbags? doesn't the Cruze have like 10?

@Elemento404 12 лет назад

@enbesa Here where I live (Norway), I have to pay over 200 000 USD for an A7 with 245 hp.

@LifeBehindE 13 лет назад

At 1:30 through 1:40 , it reminded me of a Audi R8.

@enbesa 13 лет назад

I'm not quite understdanding 80k for 310hp. It is a beautiful car though. i guess my partial misunderstanding is also due in part to the current inability to afford even the base version.

@therock701 12 лет назад

LED light not xenon !

@yopranay 13 лет назад

Mercedes Fan Here: I would take this over the CLS just because i havnt seen it that much... i was about to buy a CLS but I bought a S-Class

@ragazzi25 4 года назад

@cobrakainevereverdies6940 Год назад

@KarlowBOI 13 лет назад

@WrenchesOnJunk 13 лет назад

I'm sorry, but there's a lot on the dash of this car that reminds me of a BMW dash.

@letsgowarriors30 11 лет назад

Dude that's crazy i feel bad for you

@LRS905 12 лет назад

"The system is capable of identifying pedestrians"."wow, that´s amazing, so the car will tell me the names of the pedestrians?" PLOP! lol

@Elemento404 12 лет назад

Unfortunately, yes. Everything is crazy expensive here.

@marshknute 13 лет назад

Audi A5 Sportback looks better.

@ratmtbola 13 лет назад

@sdijnfpo0jaisf Well, if you want to drive around adults on the back seats over long distances, the A7 is clearly the wrong car for you. The back seats will be more than big enough for children and suitable for adults on shorter drives. And if you want a car that prioritizes function over form, go buy a van ...
