Despite the risk, Audi had to come into the launch of the new A7 with a lot of confidence. Shown at the 2009 Detroit show in concept form with the name “Sportback,” the original design exercise was well received and when the production car debuted at a hip museum in Munich last month, it became clear that nothing was lost in the translation to production form. What the A7 manages to do, in a very basic analysis, is split the competition in the fast-growing quad-door coupe niche. It succeeds in capturing the sweeping grace of the Mercedes-Benz CLS, only with the added utility of a rear hatch in place of a tiny trunklid. Versus the BMW 5GT, it does the opposite, maintaining the utility of a hatch while adding what should prove to be more universally appreciated proportions and design appeal. Hopefully, we think while waiting for a freak thunderstorm to pass over the town of Olbia, it also drives well.
