The current S4 sports a gas-guzzling V8, of course.  Nothing less was good enough when it was released.  Times are changing though, and Audi is making (small) strides to develop more fuel efficient models.  With that in mind, the next generation Audi S4, due late this year, will dump the V8.  In it’s place will [...]

The Q7 is Audi’s first entry into the world of SUV’s.  It’s admittedly a little late to the game, so it will have to impress if it wants to gain some buyers.  Is it up to the task?  Let’s take a look.  First, there are two engines available here in the US.  The V6 [...]

Over here in the US we may be canceling plans for high powered cars, but European automakers are doing no such thing.  Proof: The Audi RS6 Sedan you see here.  This car was caught doing some extreme weather testing in Scandinavia, and is sporting some awesome lights on the roof.  While they may not [...]

Car and Driver managed to catch the refreshed Audi A3 on camera recently.  Refreshed might even be too harsh of a word, since there really isn’t much going on here.  New headlights, and slight changes out front and out back are pretty much it for the exterior.  We might see the new 2009 A3 [...]

580 HP Wagon. May I have one, pretty please? I hate wagons, but I make no apology for wanting this car very, very badly. A 580 HP, 480 lb-ft of torque 5.2 liter twin-turbo V10 will do that, you know. Officially this car doesn’t exist until the Frankfurt Auto Show, [...]

The specs have been leaked, and they’re ridiculous.  The upcoming Audi RS6 supersedan will be sporting an absolutely ridiculous 571 horsepower.  That power will come from a twin turbocharged 5.0 liter V10, according to some handy-dandy deciphering of the vehicle chassis codes.  Apparently the engine will also make 1000 NM of torque, though I [...]

The 2007 Audi RS4 is a completely irrational car disguised in a compact family sedan body. This car has an absurd amount of power ( 420 hp to be exact ) and gulps copious amounts of fuel every time you step on the gas. It also costs nearly seventy thousand dollars. [...]

Whether the Audi RS4 sticks around or not doesn’t matter.  Either way, the RS6 will be phenomenal.  Early information says that the RS6 will be Gallardo powered, with a 5.2 liter V10 under the hood.  Oh, and there will be a blower - though whether it’s a supercharger or turbo remains to be seen.  [...]

The 2008 Audi TT is brand new for 2008 - after taking the 2007 model year off completely. It’s wider, longer, but lighter than the last iteration of the TT, thanks to lots of aluminum in the design.
Last time around, the Audi TT was pretty much resigned to being a chick car - [...]

The Audi R8 is the latest and greatest from our friends over in Germany. The R8 will be Audi’s first real supercar - but it’s better than that. It’s a supercar that you can drive every day, and not really have to worry too much about it. I say that lightly, [...]

The Audi A8 is the flagship of Audi’s lineup. It’s available in two lengths - short wheelbase ( which is still very large ) or long wheelbase ( the “L” trim ). The long wheelbase turns the A8 into a sort of private limo - the rear seat area is vast.
The A8 [...]

Want an Audi TT, but the stock offerings don’t excite you enough?  Enter ABT, and their TT mod, the Audi TT-R.  The stock TT puts out 250 hp in it’s most potent form, but the TT-R goes above and beyond that. Way beyond in fact, with 355 horsepower on tap.  All those ponies let [...]
