What Audi Is Discontinuing for 2027

Audi's 2027 lineup loses one model and a good deal of trim clutter. The RS7 Performance is the one departure, the A5 and S5 move to a single core trim, and the A7 and S7 are already gone. Audi has not announced any other model leaving, the A8 L and S8 return, and the A6 Allroad wagon comes back redesigned. This page covers what is leaving, what is changing, and what carries over, so you can plan your next Audi with Kunes Auto Group.

The RS7 Performance is discontinued for 2027. It is the last member of Audi's previous A7 family in the U.S. (the regular A7 and S7 departed after 2025), and Audi has not announced a successor, though the redesigned RS5 now covers some of the same high-performance fastback territory. The A5 and S5 trim ladder is also leaving: Audi replaces the previous three trims with a single core trim, and you add equipment through the Driver Assistance, Executive, and Vorsprung packages. If one of these is on your list, ask us about remaining inventory before it sells out.

The RS5 is completely redesigned for 2027, with a plug-in hybrid powertrain that makes 630 horsepower (the U.S. gets the Sportback body style, not the Avant). The A5 gains a new Sport Plus package, the A6 sedan adds a standard 360-degree camera and heated steering wheel, and the A6 Allroad wagon returns redesigned (Audi has not yet announced its U.S. powertrain). The A6 e-tron family gets an updated interface and new technology package, the Q7 is fully redesigned, and the Q8 now includes the S line appearance package as standard. Trims, pricing, and availability are still settling in places, so check with our team for the latest details on any model.
