Time is but a social construct, but as we’ve all decided the 2010s are over, I guess a roundup of the best engines of the decade is in order. We’ve got V10s (duh, because it’s me writing this list), V12s, V8s and four-bangers galore.Read more… Continue Reading at https://jalopnik.com

Audi has already made two attempts to electrify the Audi R8, with it only ever going into limited production back in 2015 before abruptly dying against all good reason. The future of the R8 nameplate has been uncertain for some time, but Autocar is claiming we may see another electric version next year to kick […]

1997 was early for a car like this. The Tokyo Auto Salon hosted the debut of the first-generation Prius that year, sure, but that was a purpose-built hybrid designed with the might of the Bubble Era behind it. This, though, was a hybrid built into a model that buyers were familiar with. This was about […]
Many people like to ask why I treat my feline child as if she is a human child and as if no human child could ever replace her, citing things like how “cats scratch things” and that they’re “pretty much plotting to destroy the world.” To that nonsense, I raise you: this toddler* who scratched […]

If you’ve followed me this far on this website, then you’ll know I love car interiors with buttons, dials and switches. That’s not exactly a brave stance, as literally every breathing person in this world feels this way, but I hate touchscreens and will argue against them until my last dying breath.

The 2019 Audi E-Tron is the German automaker’s first stab at a mass-produced electric car. Despite boasting impressive charging speed, critics (including us) were more focused on the car’s disappointing range. Audi will improve the E-Tron for the 2020, model year, though, which will hopefully mean increased range.Read more… Continue Reading at https://jalopnik.com

I hadn’t been in an Audi in a long time when I climbed into the 2019 RS 5 Sportback. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting to like it. The severe styling of these cars had me imagining a soulless, surgical driving experience. But by the time I got out, for a second there, I had […]
Last month, we reported General Motors vice president of global design Michael Simcoe predicting a future hell where cars would have 24- and 26-inch wheels. Audi’s design head, however, draws the line at 23-inch wheels. Read more… Continue Reading at https://jalopnik.com

Perhaps more than any other car in the lineup, the new, finally-for-America 2020 Audi RS 6 Avant embodies the classic Audi approach to performance. Yeah, the RS 3 has the magic number of cylinders (five) and the R8 delivers genuine supercar chops, but the RS 6 trounces both with a swaggering, confident incongruence.Read more… Continue […]
