2023 Audi A7 Review

The 2023 Audi A7 is a sleek and stylish luxury sedan that offers more practicality than the average luxury car. It's one of Edmunds' favorite luxury cars on sale today, four-door or otherwise. It's comfortable, well appointed and more practical than most four-doors, including some in Audi's own stable. While the A7 is fundamentally an A6 sedan with a more eye-catching profile, that sloping roofline hides a massive hatch.

Feature changes for 2023 are minor. Adaptive cruise control is now available on the base Premium model, and Audi has combined two separate packages — the Black Optic and S Line packages — into one. Unfortunately, Audi has discontinued the plug-in hybrid model from the A7 lineup. We're disappointed because the plug-in offered higher fuel economy than the regular A7 and was a differentiating feature in this class.

Overall we recommend the A7 if you're looking for a luxury sedan with lots of cargo space, a luxurious interior and pleasing performance. Other alternatives include the Mercedes-Benz CLS and BMW 8 Series Gran Coupe, as both have a similar, stylish ethos. Other midsize luxury sedans include the Mercedes E-Class, BMW 5 Series, Volvo S90 and Genesis G80. Check out our Expert Rating below for everything you need to know about the A7.

The 2023 Audi A7 is a four-door sedan with seating for up to five. The A7 is available in three trims: Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige. The standard engine is a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 (335 horsepower, 369 lb-ft of torque) called the 55 TFSI. Last year's plug-in hybrid model was dropped from the lineup for 2023. All models come with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The sportier Audi S7 and RS 7 are reviewed separately on Edmunds.
