2011 Audi A7 Spied – Click above for high-res image gallery<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

\nThe intrepid spy shooters at KGP have caught the 2011 Audi A7<\/a> uncovered in a testing lab in Germany ahead of its official reveal next year, and the sleek, low-slung saloon\/coupe hasn’t lost much of its flavor in the transition from showcar to production.<\/p>\n

Although the shots don’t give us a clear view of the front fascia, the headlamps and front clip have obviously been toned down from its conceptual predecessor<\/a> shown earlier this year the Detroit Auto Show<\/a>. However, its sloping roofline and well-integrated hatch would appear to prove that at least one automaker can create a five-door hatch that’s simultaneously attractive and functional.<\/p>\n

If our tea leaf-reading is accurate, we’d expect to see the A7 make its production debut either in Detroit this January or at the Geneva Motor Show<\/a> in March. Powertrain options should include everything from Audi’s turbocharged 2.0-liter inline four to the S4’s supercharged six, along with a V8 option further down the line. And if the BMW 5 Series GranTurismo proves to be a hit in the States, we won’t be at all surprised if Audi follows suit and by offering the A7 in North America.<\/p>\n
