The 2020 Audi A7 is Still a Very Desirable Luxury Sedan With a Hatch

[@jordancatcher6663]

The first gen design has aged so well , you can look at one and easily think it's a new car. Hard to believe the a7 is turning 10 years old next year. The 2nd gen is nice as well but no doubt the original was sexier.

[@mteagleworld]

Jordan Catcher the best era of audi styling. Also the 1st gen R8.

I never got the appeal of the A7. Aside from the RS7, they just look odd and droopy.

The first gen was by far such an awesome exterior design, with newer vehicles like the Accord and Sonata trying to follow in that sexy direction 👌🔥

[@wezeyp6362]

I totally agree with you, the first generation is absolutely stunning. The new gen looks good never less but I still prefer the C7 design because of the highlights/taillights but the C7.5 looks good as well.

[@360milliondollars]

Audi to me has been the vehicle that if you can't decided on a Mercedes or BMW get an Audi.... right in the middle of the road of both...NICE

[@Treizez34]

I had this car as a loaner for a month (since Audi's techs destroyed the upper half of my A3's motor and was waiting on them to fix everything). I did really enjoy this car and it is a surprising handler considering how large it is. That engine definitely pulls hard and the infotainment is definitely nice to look at... ...THAT said, i realize this is the future, but I do miss tactile buttons. I find a lot of the features in the infotainment on the A7 to be really gimmicky (at best) and you're paying for the technology Expo more than anything. It's nice to not have to keep looking at the screen to remember where you are and what functions are open. And also, while it's a really competent driving car, it's just not as fun as my A3. I don't know, I just feel the A3 wants to be driven where this car is just about getting somewhere in style. So i guess it depends what you want out of your car.

[@730F-Sport]

A3 is for women.. Sorry Bud

I ran alongside a '19 A8L on the highway yesterday and she had such an amazing presence and size. I kept gawking at her as we both were in different lanes. And I am NOT an Audi fan... but still I had to admit she was gorgeous. This A7 doesn't thrill me or give me that "gawk" experience, though I know it's a great drive. I'm not in love with this car for the price and feel like there are some others I'd try first... especially for $80-100k. The Benz CLS still dominates the four-door coupe IMHO.

Great review, love your reviews! I wish I lived in America, so I could drive all this awsome cars. Here in Europe cars like this are unpayable...unfortunately

You live in Europe and you want what America has? You must not know much about cars in Europe, 'cause you do have the best ones out there. Americans want the many beautiful choices you have, but we can't have them, sadly. Enjoy what you have my lucky friend.

[@MrAndrei4777]

Lcsighte ken I don’t think you really got me. First: to answer your assumption about me not knowing cars: the problem is that we in Europe don’t have what you have and the other way. Second: I meant that you can drive cars with much more powerful engines and pay much less than I’m paying here. To give an example: for a car with 300hp you will pay 5000 euro first tax only, after around 1k a year. Third: beautiful cars we have in Europe??? Example please. I can give you example of few cars we don’t and never will have here. New sonata, accord, many ford models and not even talking about SUVs. Your consideration sir is wrong.

[@lekanogungbeni6581]

First, im Sorry if my assumptions were wrong. And i didn't mean to imply that you dont know your cars. I now understand what you meant. I however still believe Europeans have a little edge in terms of the options they can choose from. Americans have these endless list of regulations that prevent certain cars from being sold here and it will require too much to import them. I experienced this with the LandRover Defender a couple of years back. Also certain manufacturers avoid America due to unfavorable projected sales, nobody likes to lose money. Some cars we can't have: Land Rover Defender, Jaguar XF sportbrake, 2012 Saab 9-5 sportCombi, Honda civic Type R, Alpine A110, and not until 2020 do we get Audi RS6, it was off the US market for many years. This is just to mention a few. But again, looking at your perspective, it is relatively cheaper to own cars like this here in America. I guess we both cannot get everything we like. Peace my friend.

[@MrAndrei4777]

Olalekan Ogungbeni no problem. Well I know about special regulations in US but didn’t know that it causes such big limitations in customers choices. We also have problems with regulations especially because of new pollution regulations. Because laws become more complex and strict, we are experiencing more problems with Diesel engines and big engines in general. All I know is that my next car will be a PHEV. I’m not sure yet about being pushed by high gas prices in the direction of PHEV technologies or because it’s just a hype. Anyway, drive safe.

[@oleg274]

Andrei Pashkov regulations are different depending on the country. Not whole Europe is the same. Also, the tax depends on the CO2 emissions, not hp or engine size. Some of the newer cars have pretty low emissions considering how much HP they put in the vehicle
