Car Auto Design

Coming up with the R8, Audi suddenly places itself in a category beyond that of BMW, Jaguar, Mercedes and Lexus and joins a whole different kind of company in terms of competition, and that is that of Lamborghini, Maserati, Aston Martin and others.

The R8 is a different kind of Audi, much different than the now famous but tired Audi TT. It's a car for those who enjoy driving fast and most likely will sell more models in Europe where the autobahns are the dream of American drivers that own one of these cars.

I first saw the R8 at a showroom in Denver and I thought at first it was just a concept car, showing it's powerful engine through the back window. But then I started seeing one here and there go by and couldn't help but turn my neck around as if staring at the girl from Ipanema.

The design is very tasteful both inside and out and taking it for a test drive was like having a delicious ice cream for the first time as a kid or even better but the words I want to use would not be proper for this article. The car handles as it should. Perfect. No curve is too fast for this ride and I would say that it is one of the most desirable cars in production in the world today. The price tag is also extremely reasonable for a car of its kind at "only" $100K. That is well less than if you compare it to some Ferraris and Aston Martin cars that don't come home with you for less than $200K so it's actually quite "affordable".

This is the A6 and its probable derivatives S and RS catchy at the moment, but we must not forget that Audi is also working on his future sporting A8, S8. There are rumors that the famous V8 4.0 l must equip it should produce 520 hp, history of place next to the Mercedes S63 AMG.

The big Mercedes sedan shows 537 hp BMW Alpina B7 (in the absence of BMW M7) claims 500 hp, the S8 future would be relevant in this segment of the vast elitist sport sedan.

In fact, according to Car and Driver, the V8 4.0 l biturbo she shared with the Bentley Continental GT (in variants 420 and 565 hp) is announced for 520 hp. If power is not greater than the competition, not omit the transmission and the Quattro weight slightly better in the large Audi which should allow it to be ridiculous not to deal with its rivals.

CarAndDriver announced for 2012 at a price above $ 100,000, which would be a lesser evil, knowing that the old motor V10 5.2 450hp already cost more than 110,000 ... euros!

Audi is a luxury car manufacturer in Germany, and is a subsidiary fully owned by Volkswagen Group since 1964. The company is headquartered in Ingolstadt, Bavaria, Germany.

Audi Slogan is Vorsprung durch Technik , which can be interpreted "Advantage through technology".

History

The company was originally founded in 1909 by August Horch. The first car created by Audi, Audi-powered Type A 10 22 hp Sport-Phaeton, produced in 1910 in Zwickau.

After many series of events, August Horch left the company in 1920 as was named Minister of Transport. In August 1928, Jorgen Rasmussen, owner of DKW firm acquired most of the Audi shares. Rasmussen also buy an American car company Rickenbaker, including development tools for 8 cylinder engine. This machine is used in Audi Zwickau and Audi Dresden, which was launched a year later. At that time the cars Audi is a luxury car with special workmanship.


In 1932, Audi, together with Horch, DKW and Wanderer to form Auto Union joined. Before the advent of World War II, Auto Union was the one who makes a ring Audi logo 4 pieces interlocking to each other, which is still used today. In those days, the symbol that is used to signify the merging of four brands.

After World War II ended, Auto Union was once bought by Mercedes-Benz in 1958. But Mercedes-Benz did not focus on this brand so it can not generate profit. Then in 1964, shares of Auto Union captured 50% by Volkswagen.

1969, changed the company name became Audi NSU Auto Union AG, after joining the NSU Auto Union. Noted ever launched several types of cars such as Audi 100, Audi 80 and Audi 50.

The company name was changed again in 1985 to only just because the brand Audi AG NSU and Auto Union no longer in use.

There he tested the car with chassis 101 and 102 and taken all the necessary data on the aerodynamics, fuel consumption and reliability. Next station in Ingolstadt where we completely disassembled to be inspected and ready to go in the first race in 6-hour race in Spa on April 24. The main objective is the 24 hour Le Mans race on June 11 and 12.

Of course it is an original in which people with the Audi 2.0-liter TFSI engine placed behind the motor shaft while the "tunnel" of the gear box mounted lithium-ion batteries.

The total power of the A5 e-tron reaches the 314 horses able to do 0-100 kph in 5.9 seconds with an average consumption of 2.7 L/100 km and emissions of CO2 64 g / km. The car can move only with the motor for 50 km to 2.0litro TFSI to charge the batteries.
