Gwinnett Audi, serving Duluth, Roswell and the greater Atlanta area, is proud to offer the 2012 Audi A7. Born from a blank sheet of paper, the all-new A7 is an athletic and poised 5-door coupe with the graceful look of a luxury sedan. More than a design icon, the Audi A7 sets a high standard for performance and handling, as well. PERFORMANCE & HANDLING The 2012 Audi A7 features an all-aluminum Audi 3.0 liter TFSI® V6 engine that benefits from the combination of FSI direct injection and supercharging to create 310hp and 325 lb-ft. of torque. The impressive torque is generated over a wide range, from 2900 to 4500 RPM, making full power usable at any speed. The four vane Roots-style supercharger makes the 3.0 liter V6 exceptional, while the potent combination of FSI with supercharging allows Audi to achieve V8 power and torque with the efficiency of a V6. Power is transmitted via the new drive-by-wire eight-speed Tiptronic transmission. With optimally spread gear ratios that produce dynamic acceleration, the eight-speed transmission also helps reduce fuel consumption by an estimated 6 percent when compared to a six-speed automatic transmission. Thanks to its innovative design and optimal gear layout, the weight of the transmission is the same as most six-speed automatic transmissions. |

Audi Quattro All-Wheel Drive is built around a torque-sensing, self-locking, center differential that shifts torque instantaneously to where it's needed. It works by adjusting power between front and rear axles more than 100 times a second, helping ensure torque is delivered to the wheels that have traction. Under normal driving situations, quattro sends 40 percent of the engine's power to the front wheels and 60 percent to the rear wheels, enhancing the driving dynamics while helping maintain control. With a quattro system at your command, you may be confident that you will always have the best possible combination of traction and handling, regardless of road conditions. With multiple vehicle handling and performance combinations available, Audi drive select allows you to alter the driving and handling characteristics to suit your preferences. Whether you prefer the smooth, luxurious ride of Comfort mode or the more direct and aggressive responses of Dynamic mode, Audi drive select helps you to tailor the vehicle's driving characteristics to your liking. With the simple press of a button, one of the three preset configurations can be selected. Choose Comfort, Auto or Dynamic mode, and Audi drive select manages the Servotronic steering, transmission shift characteristics and throttle response. Superior handling is also a product of a dedication to the finest and most applicable materials. By using lightweight aluminum suspension components, unsprung weight is reduced, allowing the suspension to respond more rapidly. Handling is further enhanced by the vehicle's front suspension design. Audi engineers moved the front axle forward to improve agility, ensuring premier handling for every road, every corner and every situation. For the driver looking for sportier handling, the available Sports Package offers a firmer, lower suspension as well as sport seats and high performance tires for more assertive driving. |

EXTERIOR Athletic, elegant and dramatic, the A7 is a five-door coupe with the graceful look of a benchmark luxury sedan. Three simple, but profound lines define the visual drama of the A7. Each contributes to its distinctive and progressive look. The shoulder, or Tornado line, creates tension; it is the artistic line that is essential to defining the A7 as an icon. The dynamic line runs from the bottom bar of the Singleframe grille along the air inlets and side sills to the tail, creating a sense of forward thrust. And the roofline, with its low, sweeping profile, completes the assertive look, accentuating its shape. When design elements come together on a scale of this magnitude, it elevates engineering to an art form. INTERIOR The aesthetic appeal of the A7 is tempered by sophisticated luxury. Thoughtful touches like the anatomically contoured Valcona leather seating surfaces remind you that when it comes to luxury, you are literally sitting in the lap of it. Further supporting this notion is the heated, eight-way power adjustable seating and four-way lumbar support for the front passengers. The available heated rear seats and three-stage seat ventilation for front passengers drives the luxury theme home, while the driver-oriented cockpit ensures that the necessities are all at your fingertips. All of the materials throughout the A7 are meticulously chosen, designed and honed to work in concert. With this attention to detail, the A7 more than delivers on its promise of luxury. |

SAFETY FEATURES An array of available driver assistance technologies provide the driver with a number of conveniences that help keep you alert to danger. Audi side assist helps monitor your blind spot areas while helping make you aware of unseen vehicles. Once the turn signal is activated and a vehicle is detected by the system, flashing LED lights in the side view mirror housing illuminate to help warn you of possible obstructions. Adaptive cruise control helps maintain a comfortable space between you and the vehicle in front. It will help detect the risk of a frontal collision and reduce the speed of the A7, as well as issue a number of warnings. Part of this response includes a partial application of the brakes, in some situations, full braking will occur via Audi braking guard available in the Audi pre sense plus package. Once the road ahead is clear, adaptive cruise control automatically resumes your original preset speed. If a critical situation is detected, Audi pre sense plus prepares for impact by tightening the safety belts, adjusting the seats and closing the windows and sunroof. Additionally, Audi pre sense plus includes four phases of assisted braking, from an audible reminder, to fully assisted braking.
