2019 AUDI A7 SPORTBACK 50 TDI Review POV Test Drive on AUTOBAHN & ROAD by AutoTopNL
The Audi A7 Review: A Comprehensive Overview of its Features and Performance
As we stepped into the Audi A7, we were immediately struck by its sleek design and luxurious interior. The car's exterior was adorned with Bang & Olufsen sound system, which hinted at the premium experience that awaited us within. With a price tag of €68,900, this car was certainly not for the faint of heart.
One of the first features we noticed was the Audi phonebook, which included a phone charger, digital radio, and an Otie music interface at the back. The leather dashboard was particularly impressive, with a nice finish that added to the overall sense of luxury. The electric adjustable steering wheel and sports steering wheel were also notable features, although the latter's price tag was not specified.
As we delved deeper into the car's features, we found an array of advanced technology options. These included night vision with pedestrian marker, adaptive air suspension, dynamic four-wheel steering, sport differential at the back, and a head-up display. The HD Matrix Outie laser light system was also on offer, which promised to be a standout feature. With a price tag of €3,999, this system seemed like an absolute bargain.
We were also given the opportunity to test drive the car, which revealed some interesting insights into its performance and handling. When we switched to sport mode for the gearbox, the engine responded eagerly, but it was slow to build boost. However, once it did, it performed impressively. The car's top speed was 255 km/h, and despite some minor wind noise, it was remarkably quiet and comfortable at high speeds.
One of the most notable aspects of the A7's performance was its handling. While it was not as refined as a BMW 30d or Mercedes 350d drivetrain, it still managed to perform well, particularly when equipped with the optional air suspension. The car felt heavy at times, but this was largely due to its size and weight rather than any lack of refinement.
As we continued to explore the A7's features, we found an array of assistive technologies that added to its sense of luxury and sophistication. These included a garage door opener, OD Connect key, and soft clothes, all of which contributed to an overall sense of opulence.
The A7 also featured a range of safety options, including Lane Departure warning, 360-degree camera, and a bigger fuel tank. The car's exterior design was sleek and modern, with a focus on aerodynamics and reduced wind noise.
In conclusion, the Audi A7 is a luxurious and technologically advanced car that offers an exceptional driving experience. While it may not be the most refined or agile handler, its performance and handling are still impressive, particularly when equipped with the optional air suspension. The car's design and interior are also noteworthy, with a focus on luxury and sophistication.
The A7 is certainly not for everyone, but for those who value style, technology, and performance, it may be an excellent choice. With a price tag of €68,900, it is certainly a significant investment, but one that could pay dividends in terms of enjoyment and satisfaction behind the wheel.

this I have to say their camera frame rate and the sharpness the resolution is superb really really nice okay so let's go to the Alta bomb I'm going to stick to dynamic mode and talk to you about the gearbox and drivetrain in general this drivetrain isn't the best I have to say it does perform very well but it's not very refined it's not like a BMW 30d or a Mercedes 350d drivetrain those are a little more refined this is a bit more you know little vibrations sort of a diesel e sound yeah those inline six is by BMW and Mercedes are nicer to drive than this v6 by Audi and that's because a v6 doesn't have natural balance so an inline 6 engine does have a natural balance so handling wise this is a heavy car you do feel that it's a bit more heavy than an a6 but this has the optional air suspension of course it has with that big of a price but yeah it's nice it settles the weight really well but it's not like a driver's car even though this has s-line package and some other stuff I think we'll have to wait for the s7 or even the RS 7 so we're at the Autobahn going to switch to sport mode for the gearbox we are already in dynamic mode so let's see how this thing performs at high speed nice it's completely empty behind me so I'm just going to wait for the best gap possible and then I'm going to floor it this is really slow ok here we go so the engine needs a bit of time to build boost but when it when it has it's really fast here we have a CLS 350 D that steeled v6 diesel by Mercedes and as you can see he has to go to the right but he's not willing there he goes okay he's flooring it I'm flooring it yeah this is fairly foster and it's amazing how quiet and comfortable this car is it I mean we were just doing to 234 there goes the audio but it's amazing how quiet and uncomfortable this car is at such high speeds this is really made for the Autobahn because it's so sleek so smooth our dynamically it's really nice you don't have a lot of wind noise you know wind noises caused by angles and this car only has flow G lines it does feel a bit slower than the a6 and that's mainly because yeah it's it's heavier and you do feel it a bit the top speed I mean we're doing fifty-four 255 we have some bumps but the air suspension soles no worries in there it's yeah it's really nice so all-in-all the a7 is my favorite outie of the moment it's where everything comes together with the current OD systems I think when you look at the design of Audi at the moment the exterior design the interior design the futuristic and modern infotainment systems it's it's it's a perfect fit for the a7 and that's why I think this may be together with BQ a is the ultimate OD so thank you for watching you can check out this video view review of an Audi rs4 Avant or you can
