USED CARS-AS GOOD AS NEW
AUDI A7 SPORTBACK
This is an attractive grand touring coupé yet fit for the family, reports Mark Pearson
If you fancy the idea of a rakish coupé but find yourself with a family to cart around, why not check out one of the fastback alternatives? And if you can’t quite stretch to the stunning Audi E-tron GT, why not cast a glance at the Audi A7 Sportback, which was among the first models to show off the swoopy five-door look?
The second-generation A7, launched in 2018, offers two petrol and three diesel engines in turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder and 3.0-litre straight-six forms.
The 2.0-litre units are available with or without Quattro four-wheel drive and get a seven-speed dualclutch automatic gearbox, while the 3.0-litre diesel gets an eight-speed torque converter and Quattro as standard. Mild-hybrid technology that helps to save fuel is reserved for the 55 TFSI petrol and 50 TDI diesel.
