Aerodynamics

The drag coefficient of the Audi RS 7 Sportback is 0.32. The Audi aerodynamics team put a lot of work into all areas, including on the exterior mirrors and the rear axle trim. Small spoilers direct the flow at the underbody, including in front of the wheels.

The outer areas of the air inlets feature additional openings – they guide a portion of the air flow into the wheel arches, where it flows past the wheels. When the spoiler extends electrically at a speed of 100 km/h (62.1 mph), it noticeably reduces lift on the rear axle – even at top speed it is only 40 kilograms (88.2 lb).

The Audi RS 7 Sportback features top aeroacoustics thanks to a sophisticated sealing system for the doors and tailgate. Despite the frameless doors, passengers enjoy extraordinary acoustic comfort. Audi installs acoustic glazing 6 millimeters (0.2 in) thick for the front and side windows.
