“Be aware that the MMI multi screen system is difficult to operate and requires way too much time with eyes off the road to complete most any function. If it fails, you are very limited in what you can control. I consider it to be dangerous, and a true Achilles of an otherwise excellent car.”

About the 2023 Audi A7
2nd generation (2019-2025), after the larger 2022 update and before the 2024 exterior refresh.
The A7 is Audi's stylish alternative to a traditional midsize luxury sedan. It gives buyers the comfort, technology, and six-cylinder power of the A6 family, but wraps it in a sleeker Sportback shape with a large rear hatch for easier cargo loading. Its appeal is the mix of dramatic design, standard all-wheel drive, a strong turbo V6, and a digital-heavy cabin that feels more special than a conventional four-door.
The 2023 A7 range starts with a well-equipped Premium trim featuring a 335-hp turbocharged V6 with a mild-hybrid system, AWD, a digital instrument display, navigation, heated leather seats, and a practical rear hatch. Premium Plus focuses on driver-assistance and convenience technology, while Prestige adds features such as a head-up display, soft-closing doors, quieter side glass, and ventilated front seats.

“The Audi A7 is THE car to get. It is sleek, sexy, and drives so smooth. It has all the cutting-edge technology. I have only owned it for a few months and get the most compliments. It's a beautiful, dependable car. I am SO HAPPY with it. It rides very well as I already took a road trip. The A7 is rare as I do not see that many on the road, so for me, I like being a stand out!”
