Audi A2 Set for 2016 Debut

 

 

 

It appears that Audi is set to add another entrant into the compact SUV market next year when it debuts the Audi Q2.  The Q2 will be an entry-level SUV, marketed below the established Q3.  It remains to be seen whether or not the Q2 will have a hatchback style. 

 

There are also plans to build off of the Audi e-tron Quattro concept with an electric crossover, likely with a Q6 model, that has been rumored to have a range of up to 310 miles.  Finally, Audi has confirmed that a new Q8 model will also be introduced, fitting in above the luxurious Q7.

The Audi A7 is a Powerful Work of Art

"Bold. Sophisticated. Powerful. Every inch of the S7, stretching from the Singleframe® grille to the sloping coupe-like roofline, is an artistic expression of sporty performance."
 

The Audi A7 is the ultimate example of a luxury performance car, but it goes beyond that.  The A7 is an absolute work of art, from the grill to the taillights, and everything in between.  Beyond the beauty, though is a dynamic powerplant.  The 450 horsepower V-8 engine produces 406 lb-ft of torque, and is engineered to move not only the car, but the driver as well.  In fact, it can move from 0-60 in four and a half seconds. 

 

The A7 hasn't skimped on technology, either.  The latest advancements, like the corner-view camera system, night vision assistant, and head-up display are all available to keep everyone safe.  The interior envelops both driver and passenger in luxuriousness.

Video of Audi TT Reality? Check.

 

 

If you ever wondered what an Audi TT can really do, take a few minutes to watch the videos shown here.  The theme is to create a video with a stock Audi TT and have just a whole bunch of fun with it, but doing the project through the eyes of a child.  After all, who has a better imagination that a child?

 

The Audi TT is every bit as enjoyable to drive as it looks, and these videos were done without the assistance of computer generation- although it's hard to believe that at times.  Visit www.quadcitiesaudi.com to see our selection of Audi TT and other models.

Audi Unveils Electric Crossover Vehicle at Frankfurt Show



As electric cars are becoming more viable, Audi is preparing to enter the fray with a crossover vehicle as early as 2018, with the Etron Quattrao.  Length-wise, it falls in between the existing Q5 and Q7 models.

 

According to Audi, there would be three electric motors, one in the front and two in the rear.  The goal, according to Audi CEO Rupert Stadler is to  "lead the industry in connectivity and energy efficiency."

 

 



 

Once again, Audi is staying far ahead of the curve when it comes to in-vehicle technology.  Audi's latest revelation is the "Virtual Cockpit". 
 

Audi describes the Virtual Cockpit like this:  "Everything in view, directly in front of the driver - The Audi virtual cockpit, a fully digital instrument cluster, is completely driver-focussed. The 12.3-inch TFT display depicts all the information in razor-sharp, brilliantly clear and high-contrast quality".
 

Originally introduced only the Audi TT, the Virtual Cockpit will soon be available on other models including Q7 the as well.  The beauty of the Virtual Cockpit is that the driver is able to change their view of the completely digital dash view.  There are no analog instruments whatsoever, everything on the digital screen.  Even in bright sunlight, the screen is beautifully clear.  This truly is the instrument cluster of the future.  Visit our Showroom to see all of our new Audi models at Audi of Quad Cities in Davenport, IA.



Introducing the 2015 Audi A3

The Audi A3 appears to be the hands-down winner in the expanding compact luxury sedan class.  With the A3, Audi has been able to do a small luxury car, without sacrificing style, performance or luxury. 

The unmistakable front end and stylish curves leave no doubt that this is an Audi, basically a little smaller and sportier version of it's larger siblings.  Since the A3 is, obviously, smaller than the A4 inside and out, Audi has streamlined the interior, rather than trying to cram all of the A4's controls into a smaller space.  The result is a stream-lined, yet elegant and intuitive cockpit.   One change is the very cool 7" pop-up screen on the A3, rather than the built-in and sometimes-obtrusive screens on competitors models. 

Standard features include leather power seats, glass sunroom, and HD/Satellite radio, with the Audi MMI infotainment system. 

The standard engine in the A3 for 2015 is an inline 4-cylinder that produces 170 horsepower with 200 ft-lbs of torque.  The 2.0 TSFI model bumps those numbers to 220 horses with 258 ft-lbs of torque.  Either engine provides excellent mileage (23/33 and 24/33 mpg, respectively), far outdistancing many of it's competitors.
