Anybody think the car will be capable of 0-60 in less than 5 seconds with a 93 octane APR chip (once released)?
I'm coming out of an s5, and I'm worried I will miss the power.
APR claims on the old 3.0 tfsi a6 they lowered the 0-60 from 5.5 seconds to 4.7 seconds, seems like drastic gains from just a chip...anybody have doubts?

Waiting for it to hit the street from someone as well. Pretty sure it will break into the mid-high 4 sec range. One of the magazines actually tested an A7 that hit 60 in 4.7 sec. (with only the driver apparently, no passengers).

I am at 4.9 with my a8 4.2 tdi which just has a remap, from the std 5.5. So probably achievable with the lighter A7. Then again, I still average a lot more than the std car in terms of economy.
When they drop the twin turbo 3.0 tdi into the A6/A7 (and probably the Porsche Cajun I hear), that will work nicely when remapped.
