The second generation Audi A7 Sportback will arrive
in the UK this spring, with the entry-level 50 TDI quattro Sport model costing
£ 54,940. Go for petrol power on the Sport trim and that will set you back
£ 55,140, whereas the better equipped S line spec means spending £ 57,840 for the
50 TDI quattro and £ 58,040 for the 55 TFSI quattro.
The 55 TFSI is powered by a petrol V6 TFSI,
producing 340 PS and 500 Nm of torque. It can get the A7 from 0 to
100 km/h in 5.3 seconds, before maxing out at 250 km/h.
Meanwhile, the 50 TDI variant is a V6 diesel that delivers 286 PS and 620 Nm of torque. It will do 0-100 km/h in 5.7 seconds and has the same top
speed as the TFSI.
When it comes to specs, buyers will enjoy LED front
and rear lights and 19″ alloys on Sport versions, with Twin leather-upholstered
seats with full electric adjustment upfront and LED ambient interior lighting
setting the tone inside.
The tech features shared by both trim levels
include the fully digital Audi Virtual Cockpit, MMI Navigation Plus with MMI
Touch, Audi Smartphone Interface and the Audi Phone Box with wireless charging
for QI-enabled compatible phones.
As for electronic driver assistance features, those
include the Audi Parking System Plus with rear-view camera, the Audi Pre-sense
Front collision warning and automatic braking system and the Lane Departure
Warning.
Opting for the better equipped S line trim means
adding 20″ alloys, HD Matrix LED headlights with dynamic front and rear
indicators and coming/leaving home animations, sport suspension that lowers the
body by 10 mm and S line-specific body styling. Inside, you get
bolstered front sport seats covered in leather and Alcantara, plus additional S
line trim.
