Default A6/A7 Refresh

Interesting...

Audi A6 and A7 get a fresh face and upgraded equipment

Its unclear if this is coming to the US, but if it is just seems like a mild update before the main event in 2018/19 (full update)

This is apparently a minor update intended to keep the car competitive with the new E Class, new XF, etc. It hasn't yet been announced for the U.S., but I assume there will be some form of update for the U.S. for model year 2017 (at least I hope, since I will be in the market for a new car very soon). This could also mean that perhaps we will not see the redesigned A7 until model year 2020, instead of model year 2019 as many have been predicting.
