What Changes After Activation?

The A7 C8 Sportback's large hatchback-style tailgate provides access to a generous cargo area. But the factory configuration only lets you open it remotely — closing requires pressing the button on the tailgate itself.

After activation:

  • Key fob remote close — Single press closes the tailgate from normal range
  • Interior one-touch close — Works with and without ignition, no holding required
  • Matches the A7's character — The A7 is a premium grand tourer. Every interaction should feel effortless, and remote tailgate closing completes the experience.
