Audi抯 new {five|5} door A7 Sportback {is said|is alleged|is claimed} to be {aimed at|aimed toward|geared toward} {a new|a brand new} {kind of|form of|sort of|type of} {buyer|purchaser}. With strikingly sleek {lines|strains|traces}, Audi tells us the A7 brings {together|collectively} the {best of|better of} three worlds; the sporty elegance of a coupe, the {comfort|consolation} of a sedan and the practicality of a station wagon. {Those who|Those that} argue that a coupe {cannot|can not|can't} have {more than|greater than} two {doors|doorways} {should|ought to} {take a look at|check out} {some of the|a few of the|a number of the|among the} {high|excessive} {end|finish} product coming from the likes of Aston Martin and Porsche in {recent|current|latest} {times|instances|occasions}. At {almost|nearly|virtually} 5 metres {long|lengthy} and 1.91 metres {wide|broad|extensive|huge|large|vast}, the coupe-like proportions are accentuated by a {height|peak|top} of {just|simply} 1.{42|Forty two} metres. And the practicality of {the giant|the enormous|the large} {lift|carry|elevate|raise}-{back|again}, coupled with the {visual|visible} wow {factor|issue} place the A7 in {desirable|fascinating} territory. And that抯 {before|earlier than} you even climb into the driver抯 seat! {The standard|The usual} Audi drive {select|choose} dynamics system {allows|permits} the driver to dial in his or her {preferred|most popular|most well-liked} {vehicle|automobile|car} settings for {vehicle|automobile|car} dynamics, and {despite|regardless of} the capacious dimensions, on-{road|highway|street} {performance|efficiency} is impressively brisk, with {handling|dealing with} {that is|that's} nimble and {highly|extremely} tractable.
With {extensive|in depth|intensive} use of {high|excessive}-tech, {high|excessive} {strength|energy|power} steels and {light|gentle|mild} weight aluminium, weight and {safety|security} {levels|ranges} have been optimised, {while|whereas} hydraulic damping {in the|within the} axle and drivetrain mountings make for very low vibration, noise and {comfort|consolation} {levels|ranges}. All {models|fashions} {feature|characteristic|function} {fuel|gas|gasoline} saving {start|begin} {stop|cease} {technology|expertise|know-how}, and {fuel|gas|gasoline} {efficiency|effectivity} is {pretty|fairly} frugal for a {luxury|luxurious} {car|automobile|automotive} {of these|of those} proportions and {performance|efficiency}. Two V6 engines are {offered|provided|supplied} to New Zealand {buyers|consumers|patrons}; one petrol and one diesel. The rear hatch incorporates a retractable rear spoiler which raises at speeds above 130km/h, or {can be|could be|may be|might be|will be} lifted manually at {lower|decrease} speeds {at the|on the} flick of a {switch|change|swap}. Upon lifting {the giant|the enormous|the large} hatch, there抯 an {easily|simply} accessible luggage compartment {offering|providing} a 535 litre {capacity|capability}, {expanding|increasing} to 1,390 litres with the rear seat backrests folded down. With {technology|expertise|know-how} advancing at warp {speed|pace|velocity} at {present|current}, we抮e used to seeing {cutting edge|innovative|leading edge} {systems|methods|programs|techniques} filter down from {top|high|prime} of {the line|the road} {models|fashions} into the {lower|decrease} echelons. While the A7 {is no|is not any|isn't any} entry {level|degree|stage} {model|mannequin}, {we are|we're} impressed by how {many of the|lots of the|most of the} {systems|methods|programs|techniques} we first {saw|noticed} in Audi抯 quarter million {dollar|dollar|greenback} flagship, the A8, launched late {last|final} {year|12 months|yr} are featured in {the new|the brand new} A7. Robbed from the A8 are {features|options} {such as|akin to|comparable to|corresponding to|equivalent to|reminiscent of|resembling|similar to} an MMI {touch|contact} system which combines {a hard|a tough} drive navigation system with a {touch|contact} pad for finger-tip writing of navigation {destinations|locations} and {phone|cellphone|telephone} contacts {for example|for instance}. Audi {really|actually} has pulled the rabbit out of the hat with this one. The A7 fulfills {practically|virtually} {every|each} {purpose|function|goal|objective} any {car|automobile|automotive} was designed for. Its luxurious, {practical|sensible}, {a great|a fantastic|a terrific|an amazing|an awesome|an excellent|an ideal|an important|an incredible} driver's {car|automobile|automotive} {and very|and really} {pretty|fairly} too.
