2020 Audi A7: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 13, 2026
The biggest change for the 2020 Audi A7 is more standard safety and technology equipment across the lineup. It is otherwise a light update, with no redesign or change to the core V6, automatic transmission, and all-wheel-drive setup.
About the 2020 Audi A7
2nd generation (C8), second U.S. model year after the 2019 redesign.
Audi positions the A7 as a style-first luxury car that blends the look of a fastback with the usefulness of a liftback cargo opening. Its core appeal is strong standard V6 power, standard quattro all-wheel drive, a quiet upscale cabin, and a technology-heavy interior built around dual touchscreens. Compared with more traditional luxury sedans, the A7 leans on design, hatchback practicality, and everyday long-distance comfort rather than a pure sport-sedan personality.
The Premium trim covers the essentials with dual touchscreens, navigation, a panoramic sunroof, heated front seats, and a power liftback. Premium Plus adds the 12.3-inch digital instrument display, upgraded audio, a surround-view camera, and stronger blind-spot protection. Prestige is the fully equipped version, with laser-light headlights, a head-up display, soft-close doors, heated rear seats, and the fuller driver-assistance suite.
