This also heralds the arrival of the Q7 TFSI e quattro, A8 TFSI e quattro and A6 Saloon TFSI e quattro PHEV models plus the Q5 TFSI e quattro has also recently arrived. Together they create a formidable presence in the overall Audi … [Read more...]
Sunday drive: Audi A1 citycarver
The citycarver is a 5-door supermini sector sized hatchback based on the Audi A1 Sportback but with pseudo-SUV styling, writes David Miles. It is priced from £22,040 and it is aimed at urban jungle motoring say Audi, whatever that is. There is no 4WD option, all models are only front-wheel drive so it’s another case of styling over function. The starter citycarver model is actually £1,400 more … [Read more...]
Sunday drive: Audi Q3 Sportback
As Audi so aptly puts it their new Q3 Sportback is a different slant on their Q3 SUV, writes David Miles. It’s a variation on the Q3 theme, familiar versatility but now with a racier coupe inspired side profile and rear end styling themes. But will this edgier dynamic design give Audi a sales edge in the over supplied medium sized SUV/Crossover market sector where numerous brands have stepped … [Read more...]
Sunday drive: Audi S7 Sportback 349hp TDI quattro
Currently the S7 model is the top of the range version in Audi’s new A7 Sportback range but order books are open for an even more powerful – and faster RS7 variant arriving early next year, writes David Miles. The Sportback is the five door coupe version of the Audi A6 luxury Saloon and Avant estate family. A7 Sportback prices start from £48,175 with the S7 priced from £68,680 and the … [Read more...]
Weekend roadtest: Audi TT Coupe 245ps TFSi S tronic
The Audi TT sports model has been nothing but a success for the company, but still strives to please owners, writes Robin Roberts. With roadster and coupe body choices, four trim levels and 1.8 or 2.0 petrol and diesel engines in a range of power outputs there is something for everyone in the UK. No wonder you see so many Audi TTs on our roads. There’s little doubt the TT was a turning point for … [Read more...]
Weekend roadtest: Audi A1 Sportback 30 TFSI S line
Audi experience in the luxury sector really shows in its supermini A1. First shown in 2010 as a 3-door, the 5-door came 12 months later and arrived in Britain in 2012, and it’s a successor to the Audi A2. Today, Audi’s entry level model comes in a comprehensive range of over 30 versions utilising some 5 engine choices with manual or automatic gearboxes, and 7 trim levels in 3 or … [Read more...]
Weekend roadtest: Audi TT Roadster 45TFSI 2.0 S-tronic
If you believe that life is a beach, then the Audi TT has been riding on the crest of a wave, writes Robin Roberts. Its success over 21 years has been awesome and the envy of many manufacturers, not because it’s particularly clever but because it’s essentially simple and satisfying in any situation. For a comparatively small car in the line up there’s a staggering 40-strong … [Read more...]
Weekend roadtest: Audi A4 Avant 40TDI quattro
While SUVs are the flavour of the season, there’re rich pickings for manufacturers and drivers in cars like the Audi A4 Avant. Most SUVs are rarely used to their full capacity or ability but an estate car, particularly a sporting estate like the Black Edition 40TDI quattro tested, can offer a more rewarding experience. It will seat five with plenty of room or offers over … [Read more...]
Sunday drive: Audi A6 Avant 50 TDI quattro 286hp
The fifth generation Audi A6 Saloon and Avant estates are slowly coming to market, says David Miles. The 2.0-litre 40 4-cylinder TDI and 3.0 50 V6 TDI turbodiesel with mild hybrid support and automatic transmissions launched in September and met the new WLTP economy and CO2 requirements that month. Other engines are available to be ordered but deliveries have been delayed because of the … [Read more...]
First Drive: New Audi A6 Saloon and Avant
Audi success has been built on the sum of its parts, writes Robin Roberts. Whether that’s quattro technology, TT-style or out-and-out performance through the wheels of the R8, but it’s also been piling up sales with estates. The runaway demand for its RS4 and RS6 estate or avant models over years is probably better known than the popularity of its 100 and then A6 wagons, and the A6 last year … [Read more...]
