You get the best of both a sedan and a hatchback in the second-generation RS 7 Sportback. Coupé-like elegant design lines go hand in hand with the power capabilities of a V8 TFSI engine. Car lovers who have had to choose family cars for practicality while yearning for a fast and powerful sports car do not have to compromise anymore as you get the best of everything in the new RS 7 Sportback.
EXTERIOR
If you like all things bespoke, then the Audi RS 7 Sportback gives you the option to choose colour, look and equipment resulting in your personalised dream car without compromising on the Audi look and feel.
We love the sporty roof line, the broad shoulders and the striking front to end design which is why we bought our very own Audi for personal use. The characteristic RS broad stance complete with the LED light strip keeps the Audi DNA in check and the new styling packages give the Audi RS 7 Sportback an even more dynamic look with side sills, the front spoiler, and the side flaps.
INTERIOR
Thanks to the spacious interior, it can comfortably seat up to five people with all the comfort options Audi excels in. From Individual contour seats in front with memory feature, the Bang & Olufsen sound system and Audi’s Virtual Cockpit digital instrument cluster that helps you customise your drive preferences.
We love the Valcona and Alcantara-trimmed perforated leather combination with honeycomb stitching, the RS embossing on the backrests and the seat belts with red edges. Overall, it is a sporty a cabin with the technology and comfort settings you need for a journey.
PERFORMANCE
The RS 7 is a high-performance four-door sedan that boasts a 4.0-litre twin-turbo throaty V8, 600 horsepower, eight-speed auto and quattro all-wheel-drive system, 800Nm tourque and goes 0-100kph is 3.6 seconds. And thanks to the 48V mild hybrid system and cylinder on demand, the RS 7 can be used in virtually any situation and provides more than enough power at all speeds.
VERDICT
If you are a design conscious and adrenalin driven car enthusiast but need a practical everyday car, then the RS 7 Sportback gives you the best of all worlds. It looks as good as a sports car, drives as smooth and yet the size gives you the option to enjoy it with the entire family. It is fast, comfortable, technology laden, sounds great, looks amazing and more powerful than ever.
