For 2016, the audi rs7 sees subtle upgrades inside and out, much like those that apply to its stablemates, the a7 and the s7. The rs7 already was the freshest of the trio, having arrived here for 2014, so these changes are even less obvious. Outside, it gets new head- and taillights similar to those that grace its less powerful siblings. But the style of the front bumper and lower air intakes remains almost identical to the pre-face-lift models (which should please current owners). With its large 20- or 21-inch wheels and matte-aluminum décor, the rs7 is the most impressive and perhaps the most harmonious in the lineup. Neither garish nor over-the-top, it does look imposing. Inside, the rs7 gets revised instrumentation with a larger driver-information display (now with google earth) between the tachometer and speedometer. An improved electronics architecture helps upgrade the graphics and the integration of the infotainment and telematics systems, now using lte communications when available, and it is compatible with siri eyes free. The mmi interface also gets refinements, making it easier to use, and the night-vision display is also improved. New color and wood options dress out the cabin. Such luxuries have their appeal, but what makes the rs7 truly desirable is that it is one of the greatest performance sedans (well, hatchbacks) of all time, and there are no changes to its mechanical specification. It uses the same relatively compact, twin-turbocharged 4. 0-liter v-8, out of which audi squeezes a healthy 560 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque, the latter of which is served across a lofty plateau that stretches from 1750 to 5500 rpm. The engine provides fantastic straight-line performance: audi claims it will run from zero to 62 mph in 3. 9 seconds, but we measured 3. 4 seconds to 60 mph in a 2014 model. Tachometer
