Audi A7 is in competition with the BMW 6-Series, not 7 series. Great video!
Thanks for the info! I appreciate your support!
Indeed it competes with the BMW 6 lineup
Joe I completely agree with your comment on the lack of exhaust pipes and rear diffuser. I purchased this car but got the s7 rear diffuser with chrome tips. Made the back look amazing. Next I will tune it to add some horsepower.
Can I say as a person interested in this car, that I extremely appreciate in the amount of detail you go through when you review vehicles. It saves me going to a dealership just see a car while trying avoid a salesman jumping up my ass about purchasing.
I really enjoy your videos. Very informative. Best of luck to you!
I really appreciate Audi's embrace into technology and screens. Having gps right in front of you, a screen for media you can easily control from the wheel and easy to understand screen for AC. Some brands have been making their tech way too difficult to navigate.
I totally agree with you!
That's how I take round-about's when no one's around too!! LOL great review Joe!
You got that right Bailey! Thanks for letting me share this ride with you!
I was just there last week, maybe i’ll see you on the road randomly I drive on the road everyday lol
You never know my friend! If I am ther when you are please say hello!
Raiti's Rides you know it 👍
Three years ago today! Thinking of buy one.
Your videos are the best Raiti!! Keep up the good work and keep the quality content coming!
Thanks Colton for being part of the Raiti's Rides family!
@@RaitisRides I'm a big Porsche fan, would love to see you cover some more Porsche's 😈
Colton coming soon!👍🏻
You didn’t talk about the cool feature of welcome lights and the sequential turn signals! So awesome. Or the ambient lighting. Head up display ? Ps that front end was the s line. The regular one looks different . More docile
Amazing content Joe
Thanks my friend! You guys deserve the best!
I really like this one my friend, I like what you doing with Audi lately great reviews. But hey I’m still waiting for that Alfa brother 👍🏻
Thanks Matt! I think the Alfa will be hitting soon! Hopefully this will hold you over!
Consistently post good reviews !
Thanks for saying that! You deserve the best and I want to bring it to you!
Great video
Thanks Tommy! That really means a lot!
Joe, what is your opinion on quality of the Audi vehicles ??
This car looks like a supersized Honda Accord. Nice review and a nice car.
I can't wait to see your video on the new genesis gv80.
No ventilated seats on a $78k car? Dang that's a big ass soink.
Hey! Do you think that this is a great car for someone that has like 1 year driving experience but has money to buy a powerful car?
I heard it has a lot of sensors that help in traffic etc!
What is your opinion?
You're right to Zonk the S-line thing. BMW doing the same thing with M badging on non M cars, and it DOES water it down. I always look forward to seeing Audi interiors, but this one didn't blow me away really. Also, it turns out german Twinkies do NOT have bavarian creme in them... Zonk! Still a great review as usual... now bring on the S7 with it's real front vents, quad exhaust, and 109 more hp
I like it a lot Joe, I have the RS7 previous version, but to be very honest..the A6 is just a better option for the money and as good look as the A7, great Video!!!!
This and the a6 avant- are the best looking in their lineup
Can you do a review on the 2020 BMW X6
I'm still struggling to get 1 of these
i love to see these cross over cars
Great review ! You should do a review on the Audi A5 sport back.
Thanks Frank! I will get that together!
I'm driving the ES350 right now but this is my dream car, actually the RS7.
A7 is within reach for me. But the RS7 due to Co2 emissions is made too expensive even for rich people due to tax. Such a bummer...
I'm not zonking the gloss black...it's bless.
Why are the rotors so scratched on a new vehicle?
Love this car
I am so glad that I can share it with you!
That's my hood! Maybe I'll run into you one day lol
It's a small world. If you see me please stop by.
Great job as aways
The real competitor of the A7 is the 8 series grand coupe
The 7 series is up against the A8.
Thanks for the compliment!
A8, s class, 7 series, LS500. A6, 5 series, E class, ES350. The A7 is matched with the CLS, Porsche Panamera and 6 series. The 8 series is essentially a grand touring 7 series coupe its comps are the the S63 or LC500. Great content

As soon as they hit the VW dealership I will be on it!
Cargo net not bad, because u can see what is inside...I dunno.
If i drive one of these i feel like jason statham
Question? What is the purpose of the Raiti's Ride logo covering up the speedometer. When you get on throttle Joe.
It's a need to know basis. ;-)
@@RaitisRides that's not an answer Joe. If I didn't know any better. I would say that's an SA answer. LOL!
As we say in the hood, """THATS BUTTER """"
I can see why!
@@RaitisRides really those are very nice cars, and used the only problem that plagued those big Audi's are the air suspension, but there's not a car or truck produced with air suspension that doesn't have problems after 10 years of use.....
Curious, was there a spare or fix a flat kit ?
There was a spare.
Bro, be a salesman, you’d kill it
nice the S7 and RS7 is my thing but i have a 16 Maximum Platinum with heated and cooled seats. This is a 2020 at $78,000 with no cooled seats but heated? Uh am i missing something here? How does expensive vehicles miss out on a simple features that cheaper cars has?
Trust me I am scratching my head as well Melvin.
you should get your hands on a i8
Watching to see how the Stinger matches up to the A7
Good call!
Sir I want rs7 revivew with price
Sup Joe I was just on your Post LOL 🤣🤣. Imma finish typing LOL.
Perfect timing!
@@RaitisRides LOL

@@RaitisRides Good Morning Joe from Raitis Rides 🤗
@@RaitisRides Bet I know right
Would you take this over an E450?
Yes!
My dream car! Maybe someday 😁.
I don’t like all the touch screen features. When you’re driving it is distracting when having to see if you’re pushing the right button or not. Some knobs would be a lot easier to use
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this one Brett.
Beautiful car and your right a cover for the cup holders would have been nice, Just the reliability on these german cars kill me!!!
I have a nearly five year old Audi and it's been flawless. Except for the time that I hit a huge pothole and it somehow busted my headlight washer fluid reservoir. But I blame that on the pothole.
@@rmknicks I'm from Brooklyn to, it's when they start to get older, they become a big problem, that why you hardly see any old ones on the road
I do like that Audi A7 ....
Very handsome looking car
I totally agree with you!
Love your show and your attention to details on the vehicles but I have to Zonk your Audi story. 1932 The four companies became Auto Union then in 1958 Benz bought them out then sold to VW in 1964 shortly after that VW started selling cars under Audi one of the 4 original company names. In 1969 Audi bought out another manufacturer NSU. Which made the official name Audi NSU Auto Union AG until 1985 when they condense it to Audi AG.
Fun fact: The oldest of these automakers, Horch, was founded in 1899 by German engineer August Horch. Soon after, Mr. Horch left his namesake company to form a new automaker, Audi,
Thanks for the info.
That piano black interior is gonna kill the resale value of these things lol. Love this car though. It is sexy inside and out.
The A7 more likely a competitor to the 5,6, or 8 series BMW
lex350us Exactly that’s what I was thinking
Yeah A8 is more of a 7series/S class competitor, this a7 more like 6series gran tourismo s7/rs7 is m6
Shouldn't the A8 be a competitor to the 7 series BMW? I thought it was more against the CLS or the 6 series grandcoupe.🤷🏽♂️
Though I do love Mercedes, at times, Audi styling, does beat MB, with cleaner aggressive lines, and rear quarter window, vs. Mercedes AMG GT 63s sedan with the split up quarter window.!
Transformer? Don't you want to be Jason Statham, from the Transporter, movie series? He drove an Audi, I believe... 🤔😁
This is so very true! I though I said Transporter?
@@RaitisRides LOL! I played it back, and I thought you said Transformer!
When you're able, please go on vacation, so I can get caught up on your content! ;)
Love the car, but, at $78k without ventilated seats?! That's gonna be a hard sell for me.
Exactly
They come with ventilated seats, he just had a lower trim that didn't have it optioned.
@@raymondboyd2780 they’re saying it’s still ridiculous it should be standard most 20k cars have that.
0:43 The Audi A7 is a competitor to the BMW 8 series, not the 7. The A8 is the competitor to the 7 series.
Thanks for that heads up!
Nice car. At $78K, that’s expensive! I am loving my Kia Stinger at $33K.
Quang Lam exactly why I’m watching
am i the only one who thinks the rear lights are kinda ugly? they enlarged the tail lights and added a light bar across the rear, which was totally unnecessary.
@@ricardodickzo5597 I think your the only one.
@@Victic005 oh well, i guess more people are into the uglier tail lights now
@Raschaud Farmer Stinger has AWD. Rear biased too. More reliable than Audi.
Stupid question, but why do you cover the speedometer?
Joey Decicco cause he’s going over the speed limit I think
Brandon delapi kinda dumb cause it’s obvious he is speeding
Mistyyy Exactly
Can someone tell me why he had his symbol on the dashboard as he was speeding
Hmmmmmm
Raiti's Rides no but like I’m very curious lmao
Raiti's Rides you are one of my favorite youtubers by the way lol
Wow this A7 is really quiet when you push the gas
Yes it is.
No ventilated sears not for 78k that’s ridiculous
I've commented on a previous Audi models before. I don't dislike Audi, it's just in my option for the price point I don't like paying $78 grand for a rebadged VW. The same with Acura and Honda. Also the rear roof of the A7 is a little low. I've sat in one and I'm 5'11. It's a little confining. Also the tailpipes sounds like a vacuum.
How is it a rebadged VW 😂
is the A7 the same size as the A8
No it's smaller.
I'm guessing the price at 63k.
Edit: Boy was I wrong its 78k.
I have read online bout thieves have these new devices to tell it someone has any electronics laying around in their cars and breaking into the cars to get peoples iPads or phones that may be in the back pockets of these cars. So the net backseat pockets might jus help owners to not leave anything valuable in their cars.
Really! That is interesting.
Good looking car, but owning a new Lexus, just can't imagine owning another brand. The quality of Lexus is "top notch".
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this one!
That lexus infotainment though.... That alone is why I could never buy a Lexus. Not until they change their infotainment system.
@@AK-rx6hv Once one gets past the small learning curve, it's really not hard to navigate the system.
78k? No foglights. No a.c seats? No thanks. Audi along with all the top luxury producers are cheaping out on alot of these models. Maybe 50k. 60k. I'm a huge fan of older audis. I have a 01 audi s8
They really cut some corners.
Audi is the best
I like knobs and some buttons. This would be too distracting while driving.
You really need to take it for a drive. I thought the same thing!
A few years ago I was considering the A7 and it took them quite a while to release the new model. I bought the next best thing in the KIA Stinger GT2. I do appreciate your honest zonks. Many reviewers don’t highlight issues/zonks, because they don’t want to poss off the dealership.
I see why U zonk the rear view mirrors with the bezels.... This is my first time seeing one like this one. #Classy. I am going to zink that around the "Globe" saying........ We aren't on a globe...... 😂 Stop saying that.
Beautiful car!!! Top noch!!! But Joe, just give me a Genesis G70 AWD and I can show those 4 rings what gundam style is all about!!!! Oh yeah!!!😍
I see the Krispy Kreme glaze on the tires. I see the A7 was detailed before airtime. 🤗
Ugh, I can’t decide between this or the Q8. Damn first world problems.
Tough choice!
I use my Audi to visit the German butcher for knockwurst 🌭🍻
Nicely done!
Say zonk again :D
German brands formed together to compete with other German brands lol
It looks like the new 2021 Kia Optima. Especially the rear brake lights and rear end shape. 🤔
I can see it Freddy!
Hell no... The Kia looks like the new 2020 A7..

from the thumbnail all I could think was "nice Jetta"
Hopefully you’ve seen one in person since and retracted your statement lol
A black car should not have a black optic package. There is almost 0 contrast and makes a car look like a rolling shadow. At least the wheels and emblem weren’t black on this one
Looks like the new Honda Accord
Maybe if you squint. ;-)
Hey my brother checking in
What a sexy car
AGREED!
I exhaust!? Super zonkkk
I feel your pain Jay.
Beautiful car but too expensive for me. Is it a single turbo or twin turbo like your description states? Either way that’s not very powerful considering GM’s 3.6 L naturally aspirated V6 has 335 HP in certain vehicles. Nice review Joe! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Most likely a single turbo
I kinda thought so. Thanks
@@LS1007 Yeah np plus like you said GM's 3.6 L already basically making same power granted its slightly bigger displacement but Nissan's plulling 400hp out of there 3.0L Twin turbo so there's that
bloodsupremking What Nissan has 400 HP with a 3.0L twin turbo?
@@LS1007 the Skyline 400R Japan or over here Infiniti's Q50/Q60 RS400
Steering wheel...not a flat bottom...its a zzzonk...
Actually it competes against the 8 series gran coupe
Why do you always cover the speed when you get on it? Relax none of us will rat you out😉
If he ever gets in a wreck, whether it's his fault or not, there won't be incriminating evidence to use against him.
Thanks Tristan! I knew you had my back.
This is true. Knock on wood.
Supercharged not turbo
ooops I will fix that.

Ok was he rev the engine or what???? I could not tell diffrence between that and the wind lol lmao S7 is more where it at this A7 is joke
Trust me I feel your pain on that one.
🍺🤠✌️
comparing this to the kia stinger, the kia stinger wins every time because of the price, and there is a lot of things that are better about the stinger, plus it has a more powerful engine, for about 20,000 dollars less
I’ve sat in both. Build quality and refinement does not compare whatsoever.
Very plain. Not much style. No exhaust. And audi is way behind. NO REMOTE START
I totally feel your pain.
No German cars have remote starts. It's against German regulations lol
So it's the same for audi, porsche, bmw, Mercedes
