Why does the Audi A7 have a start-stop system?

I've noticed that my Audi A7 has a start-stop system, where the engine turns off when I come to a stop and turns back on when I release the brake. Why is this feature included in the Audi A7 and is it beneficial?

The start-stop system is designed to save fuel and reduce emissions by automatically turning off the engine when the car is not in motion. As you may have noticed, it also helps to reduce noise and vibration in the cabin.

The start-stop system can greatly improve fuel efficiency, especially in city driving where there are frequent stops and starts. It may take some getting used to, but it ultimately helps to save money on fuel costs and reduce your carbon footprint.

I would recommend using the start-stop system to help conserve fuel and reduce emissions whenever possible. However, if you are in heavy traffic or driving on steep inclines, it may be better to turn the feature off for a smoother driving experience.
