2015 Audi S7 Sportback Review - CarAdvice

To some, the 2015 Audi S7 Sportback might seem to be nothing more than complete folly. If you do fall into the camp of thinking the S7 is excessive though, you haven’t driven the RS7. That variant represents excess on another scale entirely. Our test S7 is officially labeled as the ‘Audi S7 4. 0 TFSI quattro S tronic’. What we have here is a twin-turbo, V8 powered, AWD weapon with an automatic gearbox and more power and torque than you’ll ever need in any driving situation. Pricing starts at $179,900 plus on-road costs. The head-up display costs $3400, matrix beam LED headlights $2500, dynamic steering $2800, sport exhaust system $2400, cabin inlays (aluminium/Beaufort/black) $3750, and the Bang and Olufsen sound system $10,500. That rounds the total price out to... Of that list, the head-up display is a must in our opinion, while the dynamic headlights are exceptional. Dynamic steering makes perfect sense for this kind of vehicle as does the sports exhaust. I’d happily sidestep the interior inlay option and, while I love music, I’m not sure I love it to the tune of ten and a half grand. Source: www.caradvice.com.au
