Due to replace the existing A6 Avant as part of the brand\u2019s restructured naming strategy, this Avant model will join a corresponding A7 Sportback in 2025 with a range of hybrid-assisted engines.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Clear from these images is that the new A7 Avant will take lots of design inspiration from the A5 Avant that\u2019s only a few months from its own reveal. The two share similarly shaped front grilles and headlights, although the latter are slightly larger and more angular. As is also clear on the new A5, the era of hidden shutlines and clamshell bonnets is now long gone, with the front grille and headlights now sitting below the leading edge of the bonnet.\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.autoexpress.co.uk\/image\/private\/s--YmdBncNi--\/f_auto,t_related-embed-mobile@1\/v1689868877\/autoexpress\/2023\/07\/Best%20estate%20cars%20-%20July%202023%20header.jpg\">Top 10 best estate cars to buy 2023<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The new A7\u2019s profile is defined by its sloping roofline and tapering cabin, giving it much more of a stylised design than is typically applied to rivals like the Mercedes-Benz E-Class estate. This suggests styling has been given priority over outright interior space. The side bodywork surfacing is due to be much smoother than Audi\u2019s design language, with fewer creases and more emphasis on looking wide and aggressive.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At the rear, the camouflage fails to hide the large rear lights that incorporate a full-width lightbar. Taking obvious inspiration from the E-Tron GT and Q8 E-Tron, the brake lights themselves are situated in a darkened lower section on either side of the tailgate, and don\u2019t appear to be quite so three-dimensional as the A5 Avant\u2019s units that sit proud of the tailgate at their top edge.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t have any indication about the interior from these images, but it should feature Audi\u2019s new generation of digital interfaces. This means the end of Audi\u2019s twin-screen MMI system as found on the current A6\/7 models, instead likely taking more inspiration from the latest Q6 E-Tron\u2019s interior.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Under the bonnet, Audi\u2019s expected to incorporate a new generation of hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrain options, with the latter offering more all-electric range due to larger battery packs. An S7 Avant is likely on the cards, but a definite is the forthcoming RS7 Avant which will adopt an ultra high performance plug-in hybrid system, plus a more defined and aggressive design with bespoke bodywork.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.autoexpress.co.uk\/image\/private\/s--bdq9BuQw--\/f_auto,t_content-image-full-mobile@1\/v1702464149\/autoexpress\/2023\/12\/2025%20Audi%20A7%20Avant%20004_jrvkz7.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Despite the name change, the A7 Avant will rival the Mercedes E-Class Estate and BMW\u2019s forthcoming 5-series Touring. This will be joined by a new A6 E-Tron in Sportback and Avant forms, giving Audi combustion, hybrid and all-electric options in the executive segment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Audi might have had a quite couple of years, but 2024 will see the beginning of a product revitalisation. Ready for launch are the all-new A5, Q5 and Q3, joining an updated A3 in its combustion range. This will be joined by the new A6 and Q6 E-Trons in its now rapidly expanding range of EVs, as well as an updated E-Tron GT. This A7, in both Sportback and Avant forms, is expected to follow in 2025 by which time the Audi range will look very different from the one we know today.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.autoexpress.co.uk\/image\/private\/s--2ndlamRb--\/v1683626472\/assets\/partners\/powered-by-motorway_150x70.png\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/pubads.g.doubleclick.net\/gampad\/ad?iu=\/359\/impcount.co.uk&amp;sz=1x1&amp;t=creative%3DAEXMotorwayWidgetApril2022&amp;c=%%CACHEBUSTER%%\" style=\"display:none\"\/><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Click here for our list of the\u00a0best estate cars on sale right now&#8230;<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.autoexpress.co.uk\/audi\/a7\/361775\/2025-audi-a7-avant-spied-first-time\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The A6 Avant is about to become an A7 as Audi\u2019s next generation of ICE cars prepare for launch The<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":248382,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
