Photo Rendering: Audi A7 coming to 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show

Audi’s new A7 is still in development phase but we’ll tell you somethings we do know about Audi’s upcoming four-door coupe. The Audi A7, set to take on the Mercedes-Benz CLS, Porsche Panamera and BMW’s rumored 8-Series, will fit into Audi’s lineup between the A6 and A8.

The A7 uses the platform from the A6, but will have its engine mounted farther back to improve weight distribution. The car will also share engines with the A6 so expect to find the 3.2 liter V6 engine with 265 horsepower and a new turbocharged 3.0 liter engine with 300 horsepower. An Audi S7 is also expected with a 5.2 V10 FSI producing 460 horses.

The Audi A7 is expected to make its debut at the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show and will go on sale in 2010 as a 2011 model. Estimated price is expected to be between $50,000 and $65,000.
