The 2019 Audi A7 is Loaded with Tech #Helpful Post

hey guys this is Austin we've had the

chance to take a look at a lot of very

cool out is this year from the q7 to the

r8 on the track to the e-tron but the a7

might just be my favorite one yet as

always shoot shout out to outtie for

sponsoring this video and for hooking me

up with the a7 for a week at first

glance this looks similar to the last

gen car which is not a bad thing at all

take one look at the rs7 and it should

be pretty clear why I think this is one

of the best-looking 4-door sedans of all

time but I will say that the a7

definitely does step it up don't be

fooled though this car is all new for

example the LED headlights look so cool

especially at night this also comes

across with the taillights so not like

today run across the entire length of

the back of the car but they're all LED

and they even animated out nicely when

you turn your turn signal on it's a

super cool touch the newly seven does

share a lot of DNA with the a6 but one

of the big differences is of course that

it is a sport bag which means that there

is a ton of cargo space we pop the back

you will see that we have a ton of stuff

loaded up in here it's not only there

are a couple of camera cases we have a

bunch of random little bags and

accessories what's nice is that we can

take all this instead of plenty of room

for Ken and I don't know people inside

get the a7 out on the freeway and this

is really where things Shayne so not

only do we have great adaptive cruise

control but we also have that paired

with the lane keep assist so we're a

little bit of mixed traffic right now

and what really impressed me is just how

smooth everything is so the car is

completely handling the throttle and the

brake and the steering is pretty much

all completely automatic as well I do

need to keep a hand on the wheel but

beyond that the lane keep assist does a

really good job of keeping us centered

and more importantly driving smoothly

so I've driven a fair few cars that had

various levels of driver assistance and

self-driving capabilities and well they

generally do work pretty well usually

you can tell it's not a real person

driving because it's not quite smooth

right it's a little jerky doesn't quite

stay in the lane quite right little like

drift back and forth but here it really

does feel like a normal person is

driving the a7 is loaded with cool tech

take one look around this interior and

you will see that outtie does cabins

right

Meli's are this great wood finish that

wraps around the front but if I turn the

car on you'll also see if there's LED

lighting which goes all over the place

if they should really subtle look but

it's nice to have just a little bit of

an accent here over here down here

pretty much everywhere you look if you

saw the video we did on the each one

recently

the center staff will is very familiar

so in the bottom we have a touch screen

which is mostly used for things like the

climate control as well as a few system

settings and on top of that we also have

a much bigger touch screen and this is

used for navigation radio all the kind

of fun stuff this is also where you'll

find the excellent 360-degree view it is

super cool to be able to see now from a

top-down perspective but also to see a

full 360 around your car just exactly

where everything is it looks so cool

it's like a video game here I can see

from outside the car from inside the car

and that's thanks to a series of cameras

that are wrapped around the a7 one of my

favorite features is inside the console

well do we have Qi wireless charging so

you can just set my phone down and will

begin to charge but on top of that we

also have wireless carplay it's totally

seamless and it is so dope there's also

an upgraded version of virtual cockpit

now a lot of other cars are moving away

from physical gauges but this purely

digital set up with a nice high

resolution screen looks really nice and

it's a big step up from my car

for a big car this thing actually

handles pretty well so it is helped that

we have those big 21 inch wheels and

those sticky summer tires I mean you can

do this up in the canyons and it handles

pretty well which is weird because like

in my head I know just how big this car

is a very large Sportback once you

actually get it out on the road the size

definitely kind of shrinks it feels much

more nimble maybe not quite like an rs3

but close I mean the drive is so smooth

so the e7 actually does take advantage

of a mild hybrid system so there's a 48

volt battery underneath the cargo floor

and the back and what that gives you is

just a little bit of extra torque with

the electric motor to get rid of any

kind of minor turbo lag which I can't

tell if there's any at all and on top of

that it's really cool because it allows

you to easily start the motor very

seamlessly we're a start or a stop

so I just had to do that so we do have a

seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and

of course it does a great job of sort of

driving around in automatic mode but you

do have the paddles if you want to have

a little bit of extra fun I've got to

say there's a lot to like with the new

a7 between all the cool tech as well as

just how well it drives for such a big

sports ACK not gonna lie

kind of excited for the new rs7 though
