The Audi S7 Sportback and Audi e-tron GT share the same headline figures: 530 hp, all-wheel drive and a fast four-door silhouette. From the driver's seat, however, they solve the same brief in completely different ways. The S7 has the sound and progressive response of a 3.0-litre petrol engine with Stage 1 tuning; the e-tron GT delivers its thrust immediately and almost silently. The right choice therefore depends on your route, the occasion and the kind of experience you want.
We compared both cars in the AVVA CARS Audi collection by driving character, comfort, practicality and current rental cost in Minsk.

Audi S7 Sportback: sound, flexibility and a familiar rhythm
The Audi S7 Sportback feels like a rapid grand tourer that can handle a full working day. Its seating position, all-wheel drive and Sportback body follow the logic of a versatile premium car: arrive at a meeting, cross the city and leave Minsk without planning the journey around charging stops.
The S7's main appeal is the connection between driver and car. Its petrol engine, clear throttle response and Stage 1 tune make acceleration more theatrical than in the EV. The design remains restrained enough for a business centre yet has enough presence for an evening photo or video shoot.
It is a strong fit for a VIP transfer or business meeting, a wedding day, or a photo and video production. Choose it when you want driving emotion and straightforward everyday use in one car.
Audi e-tron GT: instant response and a modern sense of occasion
The Audi e-tron GT creates a different atmosphere. Its electric powertrain reaches 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds without a conventional engine note or gear changes. In city traffic, that smoothness becomes part of the comfort: less noise, precise power delivery and a calmer space for conversation.
The e-tron GT also makes a stronger visual statement. Its low body and distinctive lighting suit a product launch, premium event, romantic evening or content shoot. It works equally well for business travel when you want to signal an interest in technology without relying on overt luxury.
There is one practical consideration: check charging options before a long journey. That rarely complicates a planned day in Minsk, but a little preparation makes an out-of-town route much easier.
Which car fits the city, the motorway and a special event?
Driving in Minsk
The e-tron GT is quieter and exceptionally smooth in dense traffic. The S7 feels more familiar to a petrol-car driver and removes charging from the equation when the day involves many unplanned stops.
Trips outside the city
The S7 is the easier choice for a spontaneous or longer drive. The e-tron GT works well when the route and stops are known in advance, rewarding that preparation with immediate acceleration and a relaxed cabin.
Business meetings and VIP arrivals
Both look appropriate. The S7 projects a traditional sporting business style; the e-tron GT feels more technological and forward-looking. Match the car to the message you want the arrival to send.
Photo shoots, video and date nights
The e-tron GT stands out through its futuristic proportions. The S7 is more restrained and versatile, especially when the visual brief calls for movement or business elegance.

Which Audi should you rent?

- Choose the Audi e-tron GT if quiet performance, instant response, a technology-led image and a lower multi-day rate matter more.
If the decision is still close, compare the galleries and equipment on the Audi S7 and Audi e-tron GT pages. The AVVA CARS team can help match the car to your route, event and rental period.
