As we’ve noted before, Audi has a niche for every buyer, from hatchback to supercar, with a good dose of SUV / people carrier on the way. But with the world becoming ‘Eco’ obsessed, there are plans now unfolding to put Audi at the heart of this revolution. Audi doesn’t tend to do things by […]
Audi R8 V10 – Cheaper than we thought
The magnificent Audi R8 V10 was officially launched at Detroit this week (although we brought you details on the R8 V10 over a month ago!), and it will cause some real problems for car manufacturers at this level – most noticeably Porsche. Which could be a problem, as Porsche owns Audi! The R8 V10 seems […]
Audi A7 Concept leaks out
Audi has put out a car to fill just about every niche there is, and very successfully too, over the last few years. But it has rarely been an innovator, preferring to see how the water is before jumping in. The Audi Q7 and the Audi Q5 are good examples of this – late to […]
Audi sells over 1,000,000 cars in 2008
Audi has really made an impression on the car market in the last decade. From the old Auto Union days (which was created by amalgamating the car makers Horch, Audi, DKW and Wanderer), it is now part of the German luxury car triumvirate – BMW, Mercedes and Audi – and considered to be the equal […]
Audi R8 V10 gets full time LED lights
And there was us thinking those pretty LEDs at the front end of recent Audis (and others) where just a bit of bling. It transpires that the new V10 version of the Audi R8 is to be the first car in the world to be fitted with LED headlights. So what, you may say? An […]
2009 Audi R8 V10 Image Gallery
The Audi R8 has been a spectacular success. Audi has managed to position themselves as the producers of a true supercar, despite being a mass market (albeit up-market) car producer. And now comes the icing on the cake – the V10 version. Going head-to-head with the 911 Turbo and the Lamborghini LP560, the R8 V10 […]
Audi TT range extended for 2009
Audi has released details of the changes to the Audi TT for 2009, including more models with the quattro option and the S-Line pack available across almost all the range. S-Line (the most popular add-on across the Audi range, and the one guaranteed to get you the best price at trade-in time) is now available […]
2009 Audi Q5 Review
Cars UK [rating:4.5] As with the Q7, Audi is a little late to the party with its new mid-size 4×4 SUV, the Audi Q5. The Q5 is aimed in the sights of the BMW X3, although it is arguable that it will take sales from not just the mid range 4x4s, but also a number […]
Audi R8 V10 to debut at Detroit – Spyder coming soon
The much anticipated Audi R8 V10 (Audi R10?) is to make its first official appearance at the Detroit Motor Show in January 2009. The R8 has been a massive hit worldwide. It did seem when Audi launched the R8 that it might just be a step too far. How can a mainstream car maker pull-off […]
2009 Audi S5 / A5 Cabriolet Revealed
It’s arguably not the best time to announce a range of stylish, quality convertibles. No one’s buying anything, and winter is here. But that hasn’t stopped Audi, who today revealed details of the S5 and A5 Convertibles. Audi get so much right (and so little wrong) these days. There hasn’t been a real dog in […]
