Audi’s stunning Concept C not only previews a future electric sports car, but also introduces a new design language and a more ergonomic interior layout. We’ve been promised a return to proper controls by returning to physical buttons and switches for commonly used functions. Although the performance EV won’t arrive until later this decade, Ingolstadt […]
Audi has been selling China-only models for decades, going back to the A6 C5 of the early 2000s. Much has changed since then, as the once-dominant German luxury brands have steadily lost ground to fast-rising domestic automakers. With high-tech, feature-packed cars offered at much lower prices, Chinese brands have boomed in recent years, at the […]
Porsche’s next electric vehicle will be launched in less than 24 hours. It’s the Cayenne Electric, which the automaker will offer alongside its current-generation gas-powered model. While Porsche will fully unveil the new electric SUV tomorrow morning, the company was keen to tease it. We know it will ride on the Volkswagen Group’s Premium Platform […]
Porsche has come to grips with the reality that the introduction of electric vehicles is not happening as quickly as expected a few years ago. In early 2022, outgoing CEO Oliver Blume predicted that as much as 80 percent of new car sales would be fully electric. That ambitious goal is no longer in effect […]
Essentially a Golf in SUV format, the T-Roc is a big deal for Volkswagen. During the first ten months of the year, this is the fourth best-selling model in Europe. Sales data from Dataforce shows that the compact crossover has collected 170,931 units through October. It’s an impressive feat considering the volume comes solely from […]
In an earlier op-ed I lamented how draconian regulations are stifling fun cars in Europe.

Looking at the glass half full, there are still some mainstream performance cars […]
The end of the current Formula 1 season is just weeks away, which means the start of the 2026 season is just around the corner. When the lights go out next year, Audi will be on the grid for the first time in history – and we got a taste of what the German carmaker’s […]

Once optimistic about electrification, Bentley unveiled the EXP 100 concept in 2019 and promised to go all-electric by the end of the decade. But recently, as global enthusiasm for electric cars waned, the brand has slowed its plans – now targeting 2035 and beyond. In fact, Bentley is even preparing to launch new combustion engine […]
Sales of Audi’s flagship took a nosedive last year, with deliveries of the A8 falling 26.3 percent to just 14,955 cars. It’s not hard to see why. The current generation is showing its age and has been around since 2017. Additionally, demand for full-size luxury sedans has steadily declined as SUVs dominate the market. The […]
