SAFETY | 9 out of 10
There's nothing missing here with respect to safety, though; and relative to other luxury sedans, the A7 actually has more available high-tech features that might help you completely avoid an accident altogether. In addition to electronic stability control and strong four-wheel disc anti-lock brakes, the A7 comes with emergency braking assist and strong xenon HID headlamps. Also on offer are adaptive cruise control and an Audi pre sense system that sounds a warning chime, to potentially avoid an accident, or helps out with braking if it decided a collision is imminent.
Two other features available in the A7 include a blind spot system, which helps spot vehicles in blind-spot areas and warns you with lights in the side mirrors, and a night vision assistant that uses thermal imaging and can highlight objects in yellow or red, with audible warnings.
Conclusion
The A7 isn't just eye candy; safety clearly counts, and some of the options go well beyond airbags and occupant protection.
