Audi RS7 Sportback Rental in Graz

Rent the Audi RS7 Sportback in Graz and you get a four-door coupé with a 4.0-litre V8 petrol engine, 580 hp and quattro all-wheel drive. This grey RS7 from 2014 sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds, yet seats four and comes with leather, a sunroof and a premium sound system. It is a fast car you can use every day.

Why rent the Audi RS7 Sportback?

The Audi RS7 Sportback combines a long, sloping roofline with four proper doors, so it looks like a coupé but works like a saloon. Four seats and a car that is still easy to live with set it apart from most two-seat sports cars. The grey paintwork keeps the shape clean and understated.

Under the bonnet, the Audi RS7 Sportback carries a 4.0-litre eight-cylinder petrol engine with 580 hp, good for a top speed of 310 km/h according to the specification. The cabin adds leather seats, heated seats, navigation, a sunroof, parking aids and cruise control. It is a performance car that does not ask you to give up comfort.

Driving the RS7: V8 power, quattro grip and adaptive suspension

The Audi RS7 Sportback gets its pace from a 4.0-litre V8 with 580 hp, paired with an automatic gearbox and all-wheel drive. The 0 to 100 km/h sprint takes 3.9 seconds. Power goes down through all four wheels, so you can use the engine in corners and on wet or cool roads without much drama.

The adaptive suspension lets the Audi RS7 Sportback switch between relaxed cruising and a firmer, more controlled setup for winding roads. The sport exhaust with flaps gives you a choice: a calmer note on the motorway, a fuller V8 voice when you want to hear it. Cruise control and the premium sound system make long stretches easy going.

Why Graz?

Graz is a good starting point for the Audi RS7 Sportback because the motorways and the hilly roads of Styria are both close. You can cover longer distances on the A9 or A2 with cruise control and the adaptive suspension in its comfortable setting, then leave the motorway for the quieter roads.

South of the city lie the wine roads of southern Styria, where bends and gentle climbs suit the quattro drive. To the north and west, the Mur valley and the roads towards the Alps give you more open stretches. With an automatic gearbox, city traffic in Graz stays relaxed as well.

When the Audi RS7 Sportback fits

The Audi RS7 Sportback suits a weekend drive for car enthusiasts who want V8 performance with room for four. It also works for a special dinner, a birthday or an anniversary, where arriving in a grey, understated sports saloon feels right. The chauffeur option listed in the equipment also makes it an option for events where you would rather be a passenger.

It is a sensible choice if you want a long-distance tourer with serious pace. Four doors, leather seats, climate control and a sunroof keep everyone comfortable, whether you are heading for the mountains or across the border on a motorway run.
