Default Power Side Door Closer?

My owner's manual mentions the Power Side Door Closer.

My A7 is the Prestige model, but I don't find that I have that feature.

I also don't find that feature mentioned on Audi's A7 site.

Am I overlooking something?

Thanks.

That feature is currently not available in the US...

Default power side door closers 2014 A7

Power door closers now listed as option on A7 Prestige diesel model (TDI) for 2014 - option GZ2, but not for the Gasoline version (TFSI). What's the rational for that?

Here is the Order Guide for 2014. Note the A7 TDI has option for Power Door Closers. The A7 TFSI does not. Hard to understand the rationale for that. My dealer says the option will be available on the 2014 TFSI as well. We'll see....

It could be that the A7 TDI Audi that was crashed tested, had the power door closers. The A7 TFSI was tested earlier without power door closers.

For Us models, the option for side door opening is new for 2014. I placed an order for the
gas version that goes into production 5/22. Though initially looking at the TDI, decided against it due to miles driven per year and an estimated 6 years for return on investment based on those calculations.

So are the power door closer going to be an option for 2014?

Yes the doors will be available for 2014 models according to the dealership. They were just added for the gas models as well as the diesel this is not listed as an option on the original 2014 ordering guide.
