Audi’s diesel-which hypercar is (for now) not

Bad news for those who like a superpotente Audi above the R8 had seen: this is due to the directors for the time being in the freezer.
About this R10/Scorpion/Super-Audi were the last two years, frequently talking, something that was driven by former ontwikkelingschef Wolfgang Dürheimer. But Dürheimer had to wieberen, and a number of his designs now.
Ulrich Hackenberg (ex-VW) is now in his chair, and a new manager usually means a new twist to the vision of the business; for Hackenberg has a Audi-supercar not a priority. And that on the sixth birthday of the R8 V12 TDI Concept. Has that man no heart?
In so far as logical, because Lamborghini is also already in the portfolio, but a blubberdikke diesel sounded quite like music in the ears, I must reluctantly admit. Fortunately, there is the Nanuk Concept.
However, it is a anorexia-TT (conceptually known as Ultra Quattro) is not yet in the Audi’s office swept, that fits a bit better in his street, so familiar with the R&D chef, a British reporter. Get Audi may still have his own Sesto Elemento, on MQB-footing.
Old wine in new bags
And now we’re on to the future, would like your attention for the big party herkauwnieuws from the abomasum of automedia, which these days comes to us: the SuperVeyron and Galibier are fired, old news ; and the Urus will come in 2017, as copts, the press service yesterday, and the slower automedia today. Sorry, old news.
In the category of ‘warm bodies’: the R8 e-tron has a few hits with the defibrillator received; after the do/don’t/does/not/yet-again-/oh-no-he-still-death dance of the last years, the electro-R8 now suddenly do, but that may be about 3 months so be different of course. The latest news about the Porsche 550-reincarnation / the model under the Boxster (if possible, still more often discussed than the R8 e-tron): for the time being reads the judgment from Zuffenhausen ‘NEIN’.
