Audi Saloon Joins The S3 Quattro Family

The Audi S3 Saloon – a yet another piece of the puzzle that that will see the formation of an S3 quartet. There's the Audi S3 and the Audi S3 Sportback; the said Saloon; and an upcoming Cabriolet. Probably the best way to describe the S3 Saloon is by referring to it as a blend of ultimate subtlety and brutal force. It's not that the S3 and S3 Sportback are too conspicuous, but one is a 3-door hatch and that always has a hint of youthfulness and sportiness and the other... well, it's called t

Senner Rise the Stakes with an Audi S5 Coupe

Senner are now showcasing their latest work. An Audi S5 Coupe, refurbished in a way so that it suits the taste of a person who would normally breakfast, lunch and dine behind the wheel. The looks then: A rear spoiler flap, a rear carbon fender skirt insert and a blind for the rear screen all combine to create an appealing street look. A bit more sophistication stems from the carbon fiber side skirts and carbon fiber mirror caps. A set of red Work Varianza T1S wheels measuring at 9 x 20 inch

Audi A1 Quattro Going 0-259 km/h on Gravel

Here's a treat for the eyes... and ears. An Audi A1 Quattro rummaging through a tight, gravel-ish path. Not sure if the 259 km/h was the end goal or end result but either way, it came out as a fact. The Audi A1 Quattro, as you might have guessed, is far from ordinary. Sure, it has a 2.0 TFSI that can be found in many other Volkswagens and Audis, but the 256 PS generated here are put to maximum use by the Qauttro's suspension setup, ESP system and transmission - The electronically controlled,

audi q3 red track

Audi Q3 Red Track

News from Audi as a Q3 concept has appeared which suspiciously looks munch like the Vali Concept we saw earlier this year. At the very least, this new one is also red... If not even redder. So red in fact that Audi have called it the Red Track. It's a themed contribution to the Wörthersee Tour that starts in May 16th – a populiar Volkswagen and Audi show. As we said, red, or Energy Red, is the predominant theme in this one. We suspect that Audi dipped the whole Q3 Red Track in pant since even

Audi A6 Avant Allroad

Welcome, to the Audi A6 Allroad. It's like that beefy relative of yours that's always around when a pickle jar needs to be opened. The one that also has a degree in geology... anyways. What we have here is a quattro Avant that comes with smart, stop/starting, thermo-efficient engines, a light body and a sturdy look. There are four engine choices available – three diesels and a TFSI, all in the V6 category. That last one, the petrol, doesn't make much sense. It's 3.0-liter displacement accommoda

Senner's Audi S5 Coupe 2012

This year, the Audi S5 Coupe roams the streets with a facelift... and a new engine coincidentally. The engine itself is not new new but it is a first in the S5 – The TFSI 3.0 liter V6 unit has been around for the Cabriolet and Sportback versions. Another techy addition that is not your typical facelift is a stop-start system for better fuel efficiency. Other than that, we have new bumpers, a new radiator grille, aluminum wing mirror caps and a different four-pipe exhaust system. Now, while the u
