Audi a7 Sportback

The A7 is a four-door coupe that seats four,and is likely to be expelled with accompanying S7 and RS7 variations. A cross option is also likely. This vehicle will have Audis Quattro all-wheel crusade, and should be packed with standard lineaments and selections.

While we’re still living with the effects of the Mercedes-Benz R-Class and prepping ourselves for the impending arrival of the BMW 5 Series GT, we now need to add the latest entry in this category of premium German people-and-stuff carriers, which would be the 2011 Audi A7 Sportback. While all three candidates work really well at their given tasks, the difference here is that the A7 Sportback is actually pretty sexy and is shooting unashamedly for premium adult comfort.
Audi claims that one small strip (1.2 inches wide, 0.08 inch thick) of the high-strength, lightweight, hot-shaped steel used in much of the new A7 Sportback’s body is so strong that it could suspend five A7s, each one roughly 4000 pounds. That’s one strong bookmark. Arguably more noteworthy than the super steel is the fact that feathery aluminum makes up nearly 20 percent of the Sportback’s bod, including the hood, hatch, doors, and front fenders, resulting in a relatively light curb weight. A BMW 535i xDrive GT, in comparison, tips the scales with about 700 extra pounds.

First introduced at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show (in fact, the car’s internal designation is “D09,” which stands for “Detroit ’09″), this is actually a version of the showcar made ready for the streets of Beverly Hills, where we’ve just driven it, complete with earnest police escorts and all. It was 10-4s from the motorcycle cops all around, and while this experience really showed us only a limited amount of the ample list of day-to-day things an owner of an actual production 2011 Audi A7 Sportback will be able to do, passing time at the wheel within this new A7 space tells us a lot.
