Product Overview

Audi S7 C7 (Typ 4G8) Sportback facelift is a full-size luxury sedan in production from 2014 to 2016. It was powered by a single bi-turbo V8 engine that displaced 4.0 liters.

Compared to the pre-facelift model, the most notable update was this V8TT engine: Now, it complies with Euro 6 emission standard. At the same time, Audi promises lower fuel consumption and higher power output. Since the weight of the vehicle and other parts of the drivetrain remained the same, it makes one wonder whether this fuel economy improvement could be observed in the real world.

Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the C7 S7 Sportback comes with multi-link suspensions at all four corners. This provides the best cornering performance and tunability, at the expense of cost and a little bit of durability.
