Default 2016 Audi A7 C&D

2016 Audi A7 Sportback First Drive ? Review ? Car and Driver

Is it just me, or do the seats look different in the pictures than the current A6/A7 seats? My biggest gripe with my A7 were the non-supportive seats (esp. compared to the S6/S7).

I also saw the same thing. The seats have more thigh support then the older seats. Its more like the A8L that will allow for greater adjustment.

Have you seen any better pictures of the seats? Most other pictures show the old seats - so I'm wondering if this picture is just mislabeled somehow (might be S7?).

Seems to be 2 interior pictures - I'll be the black seats with the diamond pattern are from an S7, while the brown seats are standard A7

According to the press release in europe, the base A7 comes with revised seats with more thigh support so I am convinced that they have revised the seats in all of the A7s compared to the simpler older seats. The A7 will be shown at the LA auto show soon so hopefully we will get better details. Most of the pics of the 2016 A7 show more thigh support on the seats.
