If anything Audi should be reducing prices, not increasing them. Expect the resale to be worse than before. What a ripoff! If anything Audi should be reducing prices, not increasing them.

It's too hard to justify over the new XJ. Any details on the pricing of the diesel and V6? Nice but it’s not going to set any hearts racing. It’s too hard to justify over the new XJ.

Any details on the pricing of the diesel and V6?

Old model was $158,000 for the 6-cylinder. Seems like Audi are just chasing dollars. A car costing 158 grand can become "reasonably" affordable for someone to buy used after 3 years or so. 225 grand ... a different story. Beautiful car, but what’s happened to the price?

I know the the last model had some real road presence. While BMW is going through its Bangle transformation there is some differentiation in the models but Mercedes C, E and S to me really need a second look to see identify the model.

How would Stop Start translate to improved fuel consumption in ADR tests if they are conducted on a rolling road at constant throttle? Doesnt the Stop Start only kick in when the car is stationary, and in a fuel consumption test isnt the car constantly running? Im just curious as to how the tests take this sort of technology into account. One Question.
