Is the rear wing standard on the Audi A7?

Audi A7's rear wing is standard across all models, not limited to specific trims. It automatically deploys when the speed reaches around 140km/h, and can also be manually controlled via the central console. The functions of the rear wing are as follows: 1. Generally, when the vehicle speed exceeds 60km/h, the impact of air resistance on the car becomes very noticeable. The rear wing is designed to effectively reduce and counteract the effects of air resistance during high-speed driving, creating a fourth force exerted by air on the vehicle. 2. It increases the adhesion to the ground, counteracting part of the lift force, controlling the car's tendency to rise, reducing wind resistance effects, and ensuring the car remains firmly on the road, thereby improving driving stability.
As a seasoned car enthusiast, I'm quite familiar with the rear spoiler configuration of the Audi A7. On the standard Audi A7 Sportback, that retractable rear spoiler is basically standard equipment. Unlike some sports cars where it's fixed, this one automatically rises based on vehicle speed to increase downforce and enhance high-speed stability. The design is pretty cool - you won't see it during city driving, but once you hit about 80 km/h on the highway, it quietly pops up. However, not all versions are like this. While base models likely include this feature, if you opt for high-performance variants like the S7 or RS7, the spoiler becomes more sporty with stronger aerodynamic effects. Why does Audi make this standard? I think it's to balance practicality and performance. After all, the A7 is positioned as a luxury coupe, and this spoiler helps reduce drag while being more fuel-efficient. Having driven a friend's car myself, the experience was smooth with minimal noise. In summary, it's basically standard, but the details depend on the specific configuration you choose. I recommend visiting a dealership for a test drive to experience the actual vehicle.
