Audi R8 e-tron (2013) CAR review

Audi R8 e-tron (2013) CAR review

Rated 2 out of 52

Damion Smy, 29 May 2013 11:00

The electric R8 has been shelved, but Audi’s let us drive it. An opportunity missed, or a smart ‘pass’ by Ingolstadt? The R8 e-tron is a rolling billboard for Audi to make us all aware of its e-tron models, of which you’ll be able to by an A3 version later this year. But while Mercedes has given us the chance ...

Audi S3 (2013) CAR review

Audi S3 (2013) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

This is the new Audi S3, a near-300bhp four-wheel drive hot hatch that’s as quick as a Porsche 911 and a rival for BMW’s M135i and the forthcoming Mercedes A45 AMG. Is it a VW Golf GTI turned up to 11, or just a faster Audi A3? Read on for our first drive review of the new Audi S3… How ...

Audi Q3 (2012) CAR review

Audi Q3 (2012) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

I drove the latest Audi Q3 recently. And it got me thinking. I’ve heard of compassion fatigue - whereby an endless succession of charities make such relentless Tele- and radiothon-sponsored demands on the public purse that, eventually, the well indulges in a little covert self-sealing even if not strictly dry - but am now wondering whether we might be on ...

Audi A8 Hybrid (2012) CAR review

Audi A8 Hybrid (2012) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Steve Moody, 05 April 2012 06:00

Lie back, and think of China. Relaxing in the back of this new Audi A8 Hybrid, amid all the luxurious trappings of smoothed chrome, deep leather and pin sharp sound systems, I ruminated on the likely buyer of this car. Mainly to take my mind off the bloody racket. So what's going on in the new Audi A8 Hybrid? There's ...

Audi A1 1.2 TFSI SE (2010) CAR review

Audi A1 1.2 TFSI SE (2010) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Chris Chilton, 18 June 2010 09:55

As promised we’ve got our hands on a different Audi A1 model, the most basic car I could find on the launch: a 1.2 manual. This being a press launch of course, it still had sat-nav and 16s rather than the standard 15in alloys plus various other options, but this is almost the £13,145 bottom rung on the Audi ladder.  ...

Audi A4 Allroad 3.0 TDI (2009) CAR review

Audi A4 Allroad 3.0 TDI (2009) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Chris Chilton, 22 April 2009 10:36

Audi has given the latest A4 Avant the Allroad treatment by raising the ride height and adding some butch cladding. But is it just a load of marketing rubbish? And why wouldn’t you have a Q5? What’s involved in turning an Audi A4 Avant into an Allroad? It’s essentially the same trick Audi began using on the A6 nearly a ...

Audi A5 2.0 TFSI Quattro (2008) CAR review

Audi A5 2.0 TFSI Quattro (2008) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Glen Waddington, 25 December 2008 23:35

Audi’s dinked the A5’s old 1.8-litre base engine, and brought in this 2.0-litre turbo, that kicks off the range in 178bhp front-drive mode for £26,150. There’s also this 208bhp version, tested here with Quattro four-wheel drive. Great-looking car, the Audi A5. Is it great to drive too? The A5 is more than just a chopped-down A4. Take a peek behind ...

Audi Q7 V12 TDI (2008) CAR review

Audi Q7 V12 TDI (2008) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Glen Waddington, 18 September 2008 10:30

There are big numbers at play with the Audi Q7 V12 TDI. Try these for size: 2635kg (big SUV), V12 (the first 12-cylinder diesel engine yet fitted to a passenger vehicle), 493bhp (it’s the most powerful, too), 738lb ft (that’s one hell of a stack of torque) and £96,295 (yes, you read that right). The question is, do all the numbers ...

Audi A4 2.0 TDI SE (2008) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Glen Waddington, 09 July 2008 10:49

If you want an Audi A4 2.0 TDI there’s no way I’m going to be able to talk you into buying a Ford Mondeo, even though it’s cheaper and much more engaging to drive. If you want an Audi, you’re set on the badge, the image, the perceived quality, maybe the technology, the fuel economy and emissions. How does it ...

Audi A3 2.0 TDI SE 170 (2008) CAR review

Audi A3 2.0 TDI SE 170 (2008) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Adam Towler, 22 May 2008 10:30

Audi has given the A3 a mid-life facelift, and the revised 2.0-litre TDI engine heads the oil-burning line-up in 168bhp form. Audi promises this diesel A3 is cleaner and quieter than the car it replaces while still offering a sporty drive within premium quality surroundings. This Audi A3 diesel doesn’t look that much different does it? Not visually, no: it’s ...
