2015 Audi A7, S7 RS7 Sportback facelift price and specs – costs from £45,875

Audi A7 facelift arrives priced from £45,875

The facelift for the Audi A7, S7 and RS7 Sportback arrived back in May, and although the styling changes weren’t enormous there were some very decent updates all round, and now the A7 Sportback range is on sale in the UK from £45,875. The big news for the A7 range was the arrival of Audi’s frugal 3.0 litre TDI ultra, a FWD 215bhp turbo diesel offering headline economy of 60.1mpg, and the arrival of a new S Tronic auto ‘box to replace the woeful Multitronic CVT.

But with the A7 range now going on sale we learn there are quite a few spec changes too to make the range simpler and more appealing.

Entry point for the new S7 range is the SE Executive specification – replacing the old standard and SE specs – which now gets more kit than the old SE including LED headlights, sweeping rear indicators, 19″ alloys, 4-zone Climate, Milano leather with heated seats, parking sensors and MMI, and the S Line spec now gets 20″ alloys, LED tail lights.

What you can now do – which is good for your back – is have S Line trim without the Sports Suspension it normally gets and you can also drop the alloys down to 19″. You can also have a Lunar Silver interior on the S Line instead of the old Hobsons choice of black only.

Engine choices are a range of, new Euro 6 compliant, engines with power outputs from 215bhp to 444bh, including the BIK-friendly 3.0 litre TDI Ultra, a power hike for the S7 to 444bhp and a sub-4 second time for the 552bhp RS7.

The new Audi A7 range is now on sale in the UK, with first customer cars expected before the end of 2014 (apart from the RS 7 which won’t arrive until early 2015).
