2023 Audi RS7 Safety and Reliability

The Audi RS7 has not been subjected to comprehensive crash testing by the NHTSA, but a partial rating based on results sourced from the A7's test affords it a five-star result for side-impact collisions. The A7 was also awarded a Top Safety Pick+ badge by the IIHS and carries exemplary safety scores - top reviews of Good in all crashworthiness categories tested. Based on these results from authorities in the USA, the RS7 should be just as safe.

安全是至关重要的as speed in the new Audi RS7. Fitted as standard to ensure the well-being of the driver and passengers is a dual-airbag setup that is supported by knee, side, and rear passenger-side airbags.

Audi pre sense integrates a post-crash protocol that tightens the front safety belts, closes all the windows and sunroof, and engages braking assistance or full emergency braking depending on the situation. Lane departure warning ensures that you don't drift away from your path while a surround-view camera system with a Virtual 360-degree view, supplemented by front and rear parking sensors and cameras, alleviates tensions in tight parking spaces. Cruise control is standard.
