OverviewThe A7 continues to deliver a precise driving experience combined with excellent functionality, building on the success of the first generation. The 2020 A7 follows an all-new model year, now with additional features standard on the iconic five-door-coupe. With even more performance and innovative technologies than its predecessor, combined with a dynamic design, the all-new 2020 Audi S7 offers a sportier driving experience, excellent functionality, and seating for up to five passengers. The next generation of the S-model features an electric compressor that works in tandem with a new 2.9-liter twin-turbocharged TFSI® V6 engine.

Design• The 2020 A7 offers the best of three worlds – the spaciousness of a sedan, versatility of a Sportback, and the emotional design of a coupe.• The signature silhouette of the A7 is defined by the sloping roofline, which gives the vehicle its unique character and enables easier access to the spacious cargo area.

Inside, the orientation of the interior is strongly angled towards the driver, creating a driver-centric cockpit.• A three-dimensional architectural design around the MMI® touch response system1 offers drivers and passengers a sense of tranquility inside the cabin. • The award-winning Sportback silhouette is fitted with S-model bumpers, side sills and a quad exhaust outlets to give the S7 a more powerful exterior design.• Further exterior design enhancements on the S-model include standard 20-inch, 5-twin-spoke wheels with summer performance tires2, a platinum double-slat

Singleframe® grille, aluminum-optic front splitter and side mirror housings, and a rear diffuser inlay in black chrome matte.• Standard Valcona leather S sport seats with diamond stitch accentuate the interior of the driver-centric cockpit and available dual pane acoustic glass offer drivers and

passengers a sense of tranquility inside the S7.

Powertrain and Performance • Powerful and efficient, the A7 is equipped with a 3.0-liter TFSI® V6 engine which produces more torque compared to the outgoing A7, due to the addition of a

turbocharger. The A7 produces 335 horsepower, 369 lb-ft of torque and a 0-60 mph time of 5.2 seconds3.• The S tronic® transmission transfers power to a quattro® drive with ultra® technology that allows for intelligent, proactive control of the all-wheel drive system to

help predictively modify the torque application as the driver demands or the road conditions require.• The newly developed standard steel front and rear suspension for the A7 model line allows for both a sporty driving experience and more comfortable ride for long

distances. • The S7 houses a twin turbocharged 2.9-liter TFSI® V6 engine that delivers 444 horsepower and 443 lb-ft of torque (+109 horsepower/+74 lb-ft over the A7), allowing

the five-door coupe to sprint from 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds3.• The standard eight-speed Tiptronic® automatic transmission with quattro® all-wheel drive works in tandem with a 48V electric compressor to help eliminate turbo

lag and enable low-end torque desired from an S-model.• The most dynamic variation of the S7 comes to life when the available sport suspension with adaptive dampers is combined with the S sport package, enabling drivers

to select between a sporty or comfortable ride depending on the drive select setting.

Latest Updates• The Premium trim is now standard with lane departure warning, high beam assist, auto-dimming and power folding exterior mirrors. A heated steering wheel has

been added to the optional Convenience package available on Premium trim. • The Premium Plus trim receives Audi virtual cockpit plus and a heated steering wheel as standard.• Heated rear seats and the driver assistance package are now standard on the Prestige trim. • The 20-inch Black optic package, available on Premium Plus and Prestige trims, enhances sporty styling with 20-inch 5-twin-arm wheels, titanium finish and the Black

optic exterior package on the A7.

1Always pay careful attention to the road, and do not drive while distracted. See Owner’s Manual for further details, and important limitations

2Tires are supplied and warranted by their manufacturer. Summer High-performance tires are designed for optimum performance and handling in warm climates. They are not suitable for cold, snowy, or icy weather conditions. If you drive under those circumstances, you should equip your vehicle with all-season or winter tires, which offer better traction under those conditions. We suggest you use the recommended winter or all-season tire specified for your car or its equivalent. These high-performance tires also may have a lower aspect ratio that aids performance and handling; however, in order to avoid tire, rim, or vehicle damage, it is important that the inflation pressure is regularly checked and maintained at optimum levels. Please also remember in making your selection that, while these tires deliver responsive handling, they may ride less comfortably and make more noise than other choices. Finally, these tires may wear more quickly than other choices.

3Always obey all local speed and traffic laws.
