The Tatra 700 was a large luxury car released in 1996 by the Czech car maker Tatra, essentially a heavily restyled version of the Tatra 613 model it replaced.

The T700 was offered as a saloon with either a 3.5 or 4.4 litre 90° air-cooled V8 petrol engine. The T700 GT has got two doors and was built from a Tatra 613.

The model was not successful nor produced in large numbers, and production halted in 1999; the Tatra 700 was the last passenger car made by Tatra, which then concentrated on commercial vehicles.
