About this generation

The first-generation Audi A7 Sportback (C7) merged five-door liftback versatility with dramatic four-door coupe styling.

Introduced in 2010, the first-generation Audi A7 Sportback (C7) entered the executive four-door coupe market with great acclaim. Utilizing Audi's MLP platform, the A7 combined a flowing roofline, frameless side windows, and a practical rear liftback tailgate. An adaptive rear spoiler automatically deployed at speeds above 130 km/h (81 mph) to enhance aerodynamic downforce.

Powertrains for the C7 included 2.8 FSI and 3.0 TFSI V6 gasoline engines alongside smooth 3.0 TDI V6 diesels. Power was routed through Multitronic CVTs on front-drive variants or 7-speed S tronic dual-clutch transmissions paired with permanent quattro all-wheel drive. The C7 generation stood out for its distinctive aesthetic elegance and grand touring comfort. The model fully reflected the premium status of the automaker and its commitment to technological leadership in its class.
