Future RS-badged Audi products will not offer customers a choice between multiple powertrain choices, according to a new report.
The move was confirmed by Audi Sport sales and marketing boss Rolf Michl, speaking with British magazine Autocar: “We are well-known for precise portfolio planning, and we want to keep it easy for the customer. We will have one car with one engine. It doesn’t make sense to have different variants.”
2021 Audi e-tron GT spied testing for the first time
…
The upcoming Audi e-tron GT has been spied testing for the first time, more than a year since it first appeared as a show car.
As a concept, the all-electric super tourer looked production-ready to begin with, and these spy photos confirm it wasn't far off.
Immediately, the standout difference appears to be a taller and rounder roofline, ensuring more useable headspace in the second row.
Audi stunned the motoring world at the end of last year when they took the wraps off the incredible looking Audi e-tron GT sports car and it looks like it'll come to Australia when it makes it into production in 2020.
Audi has announced plans to sell 800,000 pure-electric and plug-in vehicles in 2025, as the brand doubles down on its commitment to electric mobility.
Rupert Stadler, Audi AG board chairman, said the company wants to "revolutionise mobility" and become the top luxury manufacturer in the e-mobility space – not exactly unique goals, given both BMW and Mercedes-Benz are aggressively planning their own plug-in revolutions.
