SPIED: The Next-gen Audi RS7 Is SPOTTED — What Do YOU Think It NEEDS To SUCCEED?

The latest spy shots of the upcoming Audi RS7 sure are exciting. Driving on the world famous Nürburgring, the car looks like it is doing Ring Taxi duty as it appears to be full with passengers.

Perhaps the all-new RS7 will replace the BMW M3 Ring Taxi?

At this point there's no concrete evidence for what the next-gen RS7 will be capable of. We assume it'll make something north of 600 horsepower via a 4.0-liter forced induction V8. Hell, maybe even closer to 650 horsepower.

While it would be cool to see Audi put the R8's V10 motor in the RS7, it seems that ship has sailed and those days are long gone. Now, everyone just wants to exercise as much reasonable power possible out of turbocharged V8s.

This RS7 stands out from the pack given its large diameter wheels, big brake kit, oval-tipped exhaust and honeycomb front grilles.

Clearly the Audi RS7 is modeled after the BMW Cross Over design. The sedan is DEAD. Cross over and SUV designs are now what the public is eagerly buying.

"The Next-gen Audi RS7 Is SPOTTED — What Do YOU Think It NEEDS To SUCCEED?"

I am not a fan of the A7 Hatchback look.

However, the new Audi A6 is IMO one of the best-looking vehicles out there - its very well-proportioned and is quite a looker.

For the RS7 to succeed, it should really by an RS6.

By the way, market an RS6 Avant here also.

Rumblings indicate the RS6 Avant may come back to the States but don't hold your breath for an RS6 sedan in the U.S.

If you are a well to do Dad with kids, a black RS7 is not a bad way to go. With 4 tail pipes and big rims, it is a modern day 4-door Batmobile. I would never drive a black car but I would make an exception for this Audi. But only as a lease....

Daily driver ability and track ability. My friend had an RS7 for a year and traded it in for an M5 competition package because the M5 is a way better daily driver and feels better in all M Modes. The RS7 was just a rigid vehicle only good on perfectly smooth roads.
