What Our Members Are Saying about the Available Features of the 2012 Audi A7

2012 Audi A7 Available Features: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Hatch supercharged 310hp 3.0L V6
8-speed shiftable automatic AWD
There is almost nothing not to like about this car. But I would prefer needle gauges rather than the progressive 8-digit gasoline and temperature gauges. Also, I noticed that the computer over estimates the actual gas mileage by 2-3 mpg. see full Audi A7 review
2012 4dr Hatch supercharged 310hp 3.0L V6
8-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Audi has across numerous models overlooked the cupholders. While they exist, they are an after-thought in my opinion. The size and engineering of the holders limits the flexibility in containers. More specifically, the center console limits the use of larger containers and getting the containers in and out of the recepticals can be difficult without a spilling incident. see full Audi A7 review
