U.S. MSRP announced for the 2012 Audi A7 and it’s an agreeable $59,250 plus $875 destination and handling charge. They only offer the 310 hp 3.0L TFSI V6 for it, which is good but not quite as good as a V8!
Of course people who buy this car are after its design and exclusive looks. The five-door coupe might look like a copy of Mercedes CLS but it has a kinda of classic and elegant body that is its biggest selling point.
That 3 liter V6 engine comes with an 8-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission that results in astonishing fuel economy of 18 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway or 22 mpg combined (EPA). You also get loads of safety, convenience and connectivity features with the car such as latest MMI technology with Google services and rolling Wi-Fi hotspot, full LED headlights, Night vision assistant, Audi pre sense plus and the unmatched Bang & Olufsen Advanced Audio System, and above all Audi’s uncanny quality and craftsmanship.
