Looking to break out of the midsize luxury sedan mold? The 2021 Audi A7 might be an intriguing alternative. It's based on the more traditional A6 sedan but replaces the trunk with a sweeping hatchback. Not only does it give the A7 a sportier fastback profile, but it also greatly increases cargo capacity.
There's also an increase in price over the A6, to the tune of about $10,000. In addition to the standard V6 engine with a mild hybrid system, there's a plug-in hybrid e Quattro model that is estimated to return 24 miles of electric-only range.
The A7's body style makes it a bit of an oddity among other sedans, but it's not alone. The tangentially related Porsche Panamera shares many similarities, but not when it comes to price — the Porsche costs quite a bit more. There's also the coupe-style Mercedes-Benz CLS to consider. So is this 2021 A7 for you? Check out the categories of our Expert Rating below to learn more and get our in-depth take.
Edmunds Expert Rating
Our VerdictThe Edmunds Vehicle Testing Team evaluates a fresh batch of vehicles every week, pairing objective assessments at our test track with real-world driving on city streets, freeways and winding roads. The data we gather results in our Expert Ratings. They’re based on 30-plus scores that cover every aspect of the automotive experience.
8.1 /10
As a luxury hatchback, the Audi A7 is unusual. Yet it's a terrifically impressive machine, with a supple interior, strong engine and surprisingly sporty handling. There aren't many faults. However, its touchscreen can be distracting to use, so be sure to check it out before buying.
Rated for you by America’s best test team.
Performance
8.5/10
How does the A7 drive? Acceleration is strong. Our test A7 logged the 0-60 sprint in just 4.7 seconds. It also posted short emergency-stopping distances, though much of the credit went to our test car's optional summer performance tires. Fitted with the optional S line sport package, the A7 handles surprisingly well. But there's quite a difference in steering feel across the driving modes — Comfort is almost too light, while Dynamic tends to feel needlessly heavy in some situations.
The power delivery when leaving a stop can be a little jerky, which is somewhat unrefined for a car of this class. Sport mode helps smooth out the delivery a bit and doesn't hang onto gears unnecessarily long. Upshifts are nearly imperceptible, no matter which gear you're in or how much throttle you're giving it.

Comfort
8.0/10
How comfortable is the A7? The A7 is a comfortable cruiser offering a smooth ride over a variety of surfaces. The base seats feel great but don't have as many adjustments as those in rivals. Massaging seats with more customization are available, but they are expensive. The climate control system works great.
While the engine is barely audible at highway speeds, there's more wind and road noise than we'd expect for this class. Ambient noises from outside the car seep in readily too. None of it is terribly distracting, however, and keeping the radio at even a low level will drown it all out. You'll always feel the aforementioned driveline shocks in first gear.

Interior
7.5/10
How’s the interior? The swoopy roofline suggests rear visibility will suffer, but the A7 actually has excellent sightlines all around. Alas, the slinky profile hampers entry, exit and rear headroom. It's not the most spacious midsize car, so if you sit in the rear behind a tall person, you'll need to scrunch and rotate your body 90 degrees before exiting.
Audi's latest dual-panel touchscreen is attractive but difficult to use. Navigating the menus of the setup requires far too much driver attention and presents a steep learning curve. There are many menus and selecting items require a firm, deliberate press when in haptic mode. A few functions can be accessed by drawing on the lower screen, but you have to navigate to those input screens first.

Technology
9.0/10
How’s the tech? The A7 cabin is an oasis for tech lovers. The instrument panel and touchscreen displays are crisp, while the sound system is so good you might swear off talk radio forever. The voice command system works great, which is fortunate due to how confounding the touchscreen interface is.
Our test A7 was equipped with four USB ports — two under the front armrest and two behind the center console for rear passengers. There was also a wireless charging pad under the front armrest. Wireless Apple CarPlay is a great feature, and the system reacts quickly to user inputs.
The A7's driver aids are generally very good. The adaptive cruise control operates smoothly. Lane-keeping is subtle and deals with gentle corners well, but it's disconcertingly flummoxed by tighter corners. Rear cross-traffic braking assist is too sensitive.

Storage
7.5/10
How’s the storage? The hatchback design gives the A7 more cargo room and space flexibility than the A6 sedan and other competing four-doors. Since the A7 is a hatchback, the cargo area has a flat, wide space with side pockets, tie-down rings and LED strips. There's nowhere to stow the cargo cover if you don't want it, but at least it's short. The 40/20/40-split rear seat folds almost flat and doesn't require the front seats be moved forward.
Like the Audi A6, there aren't many places to store things inside, so drivers should probably declutter before settling in. Easily accessible car seat anchors aid in fitting a safety seat.

Fuel Economy
9.0/10
How’s the fuel economy? The EPA estimates the A7 earns 24 mpg in combined driving (22 city/29 highway). These numbers are slightly higher than the class average — and great for an engine with this much power. Our test car averaged 27.5 mpg over our 115-mile mixed-driving evaluation route, indicating that the EPA's estimates are achievable.
Value
7.5/10
Is the A7 a good value? The quality of materials and construction is excellent, though the blinding chrome trim and a rattling speaker in our test car diminished the primo luxury vibe. Still, the A7 can be expensive, and you can get more cargo room from the Q8 SUV for less money. Warranty coverage for a luxury automaker is average.
Wildcard
9.0/10
There aren't many midsize luxury hatchbacks, and Audi went out of its way to make this car feel special. The S line package and sticky tires endow this tech-heavy people mover with performance chops, and the turbo V6 is more powerful than you might think.
For better or worse, the A7 greatly differentiates itself from the A6 it's based on. Its rear hatch allows for more cargo room at the expense of rear-seat headroom. The styling makes it look a bit sleeker too. Otherwise, it has the same high-tech interior and spirited dynamics we love in the A6.

Which A7 does Edmunds recommend?
The midgrade Premium Plus trim gets our recommendation in the A7 lineup for the best value play. Besides all of the Premium trim level's features, you also get the contents of the Convenience package and several additional advanced safety and driver assistance features.
Audi A7 models
The 2021 Audi A7 is a sedan with a rear hatch and is available in three trim levels: Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige. The standard powerplant is what Audi calls the 55 TFSI. It's a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 engine (335 horsepower, 369 lb-ft of torque) paired to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. It also features a 48-volt mild hybrid system that can help with engine smoothness and efficiency.
There is also this year's new 55 TFSI e Quattro. This is a real-deal hybrid. It uses a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine paired to a plug-in hybrid system (meaning you can recharge it using an external power cord) and a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. Combined output is 362 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque. The EPA estimates the e Quattro can go 24 miles on all-electric power before switching over to the regular gas/hybrid operation.
Premium
The base Premium trim is anything but basic. You get plenty of comfort, convenience and tech features such as:
- Sunroof
- Front and rear parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible in front of or behind the vehicle when parking)
- Power rear hatch

- Leather upholstery

- Larger primary infotainment display
- Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the vehicle and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
Premium Plus

2021 Audi A7 video
[MUSIC PLAYING] SPEAKER 1: Vehicle variants are nothing new. You have grand coupes, you have GTs, you have sportbacks, you have wagons. They're all pretty much based off of sedans. This is no different. This is the all-new 2019 Audi A7. Before I jump into the A7, do me a favor and hit subscribe below. We have a lot of great content coming your way. Like the first generation A7, this new one is based very heavily on the A6 sedan. The big difference though is styling. Instead of the traditional sedan proportions, the A7 has this sweeping roof line that tapers down into this fastback hatchback look. It's slightly sportier, and it has a certain appeal to those who just want to make a fashion statement. The engines are all the same. It's a three liter turbo charged V6, that puts out 335 horsepower, through a seven speed automated manual gearbox. And it has Quattro all-wheel drive as standard. For the most part, the A7 drives just like the A6. For driving impressions and some interior impressions, check out that full review, because this video, I'm going to be pointing out the differences between the A6 and A7. One of the main differences besides just the body shape, is also the price. The A7 costs about $10,000 more than the A6. That means the starting price is right around $70,000. The A7 also has some subtle styling tweaks that set it apart just a little bit from the more conventional A6. First of all, there's some deep creases in the hood here that give it a sportier, lighter, sharper appearance. There's also a lot of sculpting going down here under the headlights and larger air vents to make it look a little sportier. One of the more pronounced and heritage-inspired styling cues is this flared blister. It's pretty subtle, and actually the best way to see it is to look straight down on it. And it goes back to the Audi Quattro with those really pronounced flares and blisters right around the wheels. Further back, we have some character lines that kind of fade in and fade out. They're really sharp in some points and just fade back into the body. It's really nice. It's a good effect. Also, there's a subtle line here. This little crease here that gives it a slightly lighter appearance. To further lighten a lot of that visual weight, there's a lot of sculpting going on down here by the rocker panels. It's kind of deeply coved in here and it changes its profile as it goes up. In design speak, well, they're catching light and casting shadows. And that gives it a lot more visual interest. As you get to the back wheel, well, you have the reemergence of that Quattro bulge here. And one thing that is also cool, is the last generation A7, the fuel door was a little bit of an interruption, because they had to place it in the middle of that character line. Now they have it right in this perfect little spot here, where it doesn't really jar you visually. Another difference between this and the old A7 is the tail. It's just a few inches taller than before. And it actually makes a big difference. I thought that the original A7, it tapered a little bit too much and kind of trailed off. This one has a more definite ending. And I think it's more attractive. One of the more obvious differences between the A7 and A6 is cargo. This massive hatch adds to the already generous trunk from the A6. It means you can fit slightly bulkier items back here. And the designers say you can still fit golf clubs sideways across the trunk. Overall, it gets a slight edge over the A6 when it comes to convenience and utility. If there's one area where the A7 comes up short against the A6, it's rear passenger space. I'm 5'10" and my head is definitely touching the headliner. In the A6 however, I add about an inch or two above that. I do still have plenty of room for my feet under the front seat and knee room as well. And it still has plenty of lateral space. Unlike the A6, it's not quite as expansive a view outward because of this tapering roof line. What that means is, if you're going to be regularly shuttling around taller adults, the A6 might be a better choice. All things considered, the A7 takes all of the best attributes of the A6 and adds a little more style. They both drive really great, have wonderful interiors and tons of tech. Deciding between the two is really just going to come down to your own fashion sense. Personally, I like this new A7. I like it better than the A6. But I also like it a lot better than the previous A7. For more information on the A6, the A7 and all of their competition, head on over to edmunds.com. To see more videos like this, hit subscribe.

Audi A7 vs. the competition

2021 Audi A7

2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
Audi A7 vs. Mercedes-Benz E-Class
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class received a substantial update for 2021 and in the process nabbed the Edmunds Top Rated Award for midsize luxury sedans. Unlike the A7's hatchback body style, the E-Class sticks with a traditional trunk. As a result, the A7 enjoys almost double the cargo capacity of the Benz. The E-Class, however, has a better infotainment system.
Audi A7 vs. BMW 8 Series Gran Coupe
The recent revival of BMW's 8 Series coupe replaces the old 6 Series and makes a huge impression with its numerous improvements. The four-door Gran Coupe follows the same formula of delivering stirring performance with high levels of refinement and luxury. It does cost more than the Audi A7, however, and lacks the trunk space. We prefer the BMW's driving dynamics, especially with the V8 engine or M8 variant.
Audi A7 vs. Porsche Panamera
Both the Audi A7 and the Porsche Panamera fall under the VW Group of automotive brands and have historically been closely related. With the latest redesigns, there's less of a connection, but plenty of similarities remain. The rear hatch is the most obvious, though the A7 holds a lot more. Not surprisingly, the Panamera has a performance advantage but also costs more.

Should I lease or buy a 2021 Audi A7?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
