A7/S7/RS7 Audi RS7 Sportback Debuts With 591 HP, Sultry Styling

Always a possibility, I'm afraid. Regardless of manufacturer. Marc Lichte being adament that the concept "is a 99% reflection" (save doorhandles, rims and illuminated "eTron" logo LEDS) of the production car is encouraging.

I have the feeling that the eTron is going to be a four door sedocoupe* (I read it from you first). It has the potential to be the next big thing (but only if it is substaintially undercutting the Taycan pricewise).

The 4 door "sedoupe" configuration appears to be a given, as the concept cars' body is allegedly "lifted" from an actual production-bodied test mule. The black/silver/orange eTron-signature foiled exhibition car presented along with the anthracite-brownish concept GT (and also featured at this years' Berlinale Film Festival) is probably the clearest indication yet of how the production eTron GT will look.

As for price: It has been stated that base prices "should" be positioned somewhat below those of the respective Taycan counterparts. 85K-90K Euros base is a figure that has been making the rounds. Power output will reportedly be a bit less than that of the Taycans. 440Kw (595 PS) stated to be a ballpark figure.

I'm sure that it will offer several power options similar to Taycan. It must cost at least 20% less than the comparable Taycan in order to be relevant.

ABT RS7 with 700HP.

Unusual rim design. Similar to what one may expect for BEVs'. ABT will surely feature these rims on its' version of the e Tron GT .

Are those aerodynamic alloys?

So, for me it's RS7 all the way, but which one would you choose?

Random spot. Car is not out yet. The silver rear diffuser is overkill. Should be gloss black or carbon.

Certainly "dramatic". And arguably "a bit much" pertaining to the visual-although not quite as "overboard" as is the case with the RS6 Avant. Personally, a nicely-spec'd S7 or A7 Sportback S-Line would suit me just fine.

Daniel Abt at the wheel, I presume ?

His youtube channel is worth watching.

Lovely spec'd.. Quite like those silver touches rather than blacked out.

The S7 and S-line A7 do tickle my fancy very much James. I can understand why you prefer them to the over aggressive look of the RS7. They strike the perfect line between elegance and sportiness. Definitely will make someone turn their head to have another look.

RS7 Sedan would be nice, better than Sportback which is nothing "sport" but rather Uglybutt.
