Audi A7 Sportback

Audi's first-of-its-kind premium hatchback, the A7 (not to be confused with the Kia K7), tries to stand out against its main competitor, the Porsche Panamera. However, the million-dollar question is, will the Audi A7 take advantage with its eccentric design?

Just how eccentric is the Audi A7's design? For instance, the front view of the A7 resembles like the present third-generation A8, the side view looks more of an A5 Sportback, and the rear view that makes it more eccentric. With that design, most German car enthusiasts will keep guessing whether they will like the A7 or not. As for me, I think this rear view will be placed in a scrapbook of ugliest rear sides because just one look will make their reactions go eccentric.

On the inside, the A7 seems to have an eccentric feeling. Compare this car to the A5 Sportback and the results will remain eccentric. The rear seats of the A7 Sportback can be flipped down to make room for some more luggage space, which reminds me of other hatchbacks I know from the past to the present. On the driver's side, the A7 Sportback offers the same level as the new A8. With the available handwriting recognition, MMI Navigation Plus, and the new heads-up display, these features will keep the driver informed while taking on the most eccentric places on Europe.

From its arrival, three available engines are available for the A7. These engines include the 2.8 V6 FSI engine, diesel powered 3.0L V6 engine, and the high-performance 3.0L V6 TFSi engine. Most variants come with the seven-speed S-tronic transmission and Audi's legendary quattro technology. Finding which A7 variant suitable for you still offers you with this transmission and drive-train available only on this eccentric premium-sized hatchback.

My thoughts about the A7:
With the A7's sales start this autumn at the suggested retail price of 51,650 Euros or my predicted price will be under the seven-million peso mark, this eccentric sportback will try to keep itself eccentric thanks to its eccentric rear view that others think this is very ugly to look at it. On the bright side, 51,650 Euros is good enough to topple the base Panamera's price of about 75,899, but I still prefer the Panamera because this is more appealing than the A7.
