Automotive - Spied! Audi A7 Goes Out for Some Winter Night Testing
It may be late to the four-door coupe party, but Audi officials promise it'll be well worth the wait. Our spy shooters caught the German brand's upcoming A7 undergoing a battery of winter testing in Europe. Unfortunately, thanks to haste of Audi's engineers, only two of the shots really show the car's profile and size.

It's poised to compete head-to-head with the Mercedes-Benz CLS and newly released BMW 5 Series GT and is something of an A6/A8 hybrid build. The platform is said to come from the next A6, while its powertrains from both the A6 and bigger A8. Inside its cabin will be all the usual high-end Audi features.

The best idea of what the A7 will look like comes via the automaker's Sportback Concept first shown at the 2009 Detroit show. Its sleek styling was largely welcomed by both the press and public. Like the 5 Series GT, the Sportback touts a five-door hatch configuration, a feature most likely to be found on the production A7.
