What does Audi C7 mean?

[JamesFitz]

Audi C7 refers to the Audi A6L produced between 2012 and 2018. The 'C' stands for C-segment vehicles, which are generally large and medium-sized cars or premium sedans, with engine displacements ranging from 2.4 to 3.2 liters. The number following the letter indicates the specific model, with '7' representing the seventh generation. C-segment vehicles, also known as mid-size or executive cars, typically have a wheelbase of around 3.0 to 3.1 meters and engine displacements between 2.4 and 3.2 liters. The classification of cars is not based on a single parameter but is derived from a comprehensive analysis of multiple factors such as body size, price, power, and engine displacement. The letters denote the car's class, with 'C' representing C-class cars and 'B' representing B-class cars. This classification method was invented by Volkswagen and is not a globally unified standard, but China has consistently followed this standard. This rating system was established by Volkswagen when they first formulated their platform strategy, serving as a set of reference values. Vehicle classes are mostly categorized as: A00, A0, A, B, C, D.
