Refreshed models receive subtle styling upgrades coupled with more power, new transmissions and cutting-edge infotainment.
Having debuted back in 2010, Audi has deemed the A7 Sportback in need of a facelift. So for 2015, the four-door coupe receives more power, new transmissions, lights and a new infotainment system. Enhancing its athletic design, Audi has revised the Singleframe grille, bumpers, tailpipes and headlights with LEDs coming as standard. Optional Matrix LED headlights combine with dynamic turn signals, which come standard at the rear.
The new A7 Sportback comes with a choice of alloys ranging from 17 to 21 inches, while new lightweight brakes come with certain engine configurations. Buyers will have a choice of two gasoline and three diesel units, ranging from a 3.0-liter V6 that sends 218 hp to the front wheels to the range-topping 4.0-liter TFSi unit in the S7 Sportback rated at 450 hp. Apart from the 3.0-liter TDI twin-turbo diesel, which delivers 320 hp and comes mated to an eight-speed tiptronic transmission, all engines come paired with a seven-speed S tronic transmission. FWD models receive a fully redeveloped dual-clutch box, while models with engines rated at 272 hp and above can supplement the quattro all-wheel-drive with a sport differential.
一个dynamic handling system comes as standard with optional dynamic steering, two sport suspension setups and adaptive air suspension. Inside, a horizontal line now surrounds the driver and passenger in a cabin swathed in new materials of Valcona leather and aluminum/Beaufort walnut inlay. Five new color options also extend to the seats that can be optioned with ventilation and massage functions, while MMI radio operating system comes as standard or can be supplemented as an option with a head-up display projecting important info onto the windshield. For infotainment, Audi offers its cutting-edge MMI Navigation plus with MMI touch and Audi connect, as well as a Bang & Olufsen sound system.
