2013 Audi Q5 Hybrid Prestige Sport Utility 4-door on 2040-cars
Tyler, Texas, United States
More details at: lavetalaahlheim@ukhair.net .
The 2013 Audi Q5 features a 245-horsepower @4300rpm, 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with 354 torque@1500rpm.
It features an 8-speed Titronic automatic transmission and features Audi's quattro all-wheel drive system, which
sends about 60 percent of engine torque to the rear wheels under most driving conditions; on slippery surfaces or
for better stability, the system will reapportion torque as needed. The 2.0L also helps to power the new hybrid
model, and is paired with an electric motor. Together, the system is capable of an EPA-estimated 24 mpg city and 30
mpg highway. With car-like underpinnings adapted in part from the Audi A4 sport sedan, the Q5 drives and handles
much like that car, despite its relatively tall cabin.
The Q5 is quite compact on the outside--it's about as easy to park as a compact sedan--yet there's a lot of
passenger space within. Nice, supportive front seats afford a great view out, with a center console that has an
adjustable armrest up top, while there's a surprising amount of legroom in back. The back seats in the Q5 slide
fore and aft to balance the amount of cargo space and legroom, while the seat backs recline; the seats also fold
forward to allow a large cargo space or, when up, there's still a pass-through for long objects. The Q5's long
wheelbase, in addition to helping maximize passenger space, also helps improve ride quality. This Audi Q5 offers a
long list of safety features that includes electronic stability control, anti-lock brakes and hill descent control,
with a special off-road mode for the electronics that allows a little more slip. The stability control system in
the Q5 will recognize when the roof rack is loaded and adjust accordingly

Delphi plans automated-driving journey across the United States
Fri, Mar 13 2015Delphi is attempting to become the first company to pilot an automated car across the United States. The global automotive supplier will start a cross-country journey from a location near the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco starting on Sunday, March 22, and cover approximately 3,500 miles on a trip to New York, where it will arrive sometime during the New York Auto Show. Along the way, Delphi engineers will gather data on how the car, an Audi SQ5, performs in a variety of road and weather conditions that the company says could only be tested in a real-world environment. "Delphi had great success testing its car in California and on the streets of Las Vegas," said Jeff Owens, the company's chief technology officer. "Now it's time to put our vehicle to the ultimate test by broadening the range of driving conditions." A formal announcement is expected tomorrow during the SXSW festival in Austin, TX. The company recently demonstrated many of its advanced-safety and automated driving technologies during CES, driving in Las Vegas. The cross-country trip will include tests on its radar, vision and advanced-drive assistance systems, certain vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications, and intelligent software, which includes automated highway pilot with lane-change technology, automated urban pilot and automated parking functions. Though a driver will be behind the wheel throughout the journey, Delphi says its active safety technologies can make complex decisions, like stopping and proceeding at four-way stops, timing highway merges and calculating safe maneuvers around bicyclists. While California has certain motor-vehicle laws that help regulate autonomous vehicles, it was unclear whether Delphi needs special arrangements or permission from other states to conduct automated-vehicle testing elsewhere – or if those concerns might be negated by an active driver. Earlier this year, Audi turned heads at CES by driving an A7 from San Francisco to Las Vegas in a similar display of automated-driving technology.

Audi previews sleek crossover concept ahead of Beijing debut
Tue, 08 Apr 2014With the Beijing Motor Show approaching just a couple of weeks down the road, automakers have begun announcing the concept cars they have in store. Nissan has a new sedan concept coming, Lexus will reveal the production NX crossover and Citroën has a tempting sports sedan concept lined up for the Chinese auto expo. And now Audi has hinted at what it has in store.
Revealing only a trio of renderings with no details to accompany them so far, Audi appears to have a new crossover concept in the works. Referred to only as the Audi Showcar Beijing 2014, the brief calls for a five-door crossover with a rather coupe-like roofline, rugged lower body cladding and a flexible cabin with quad bucket seats.
The form bears telltale similarities to the new TT, suggesting that this concept could be a further evolution of the Allroad Shooting Brake concept that Audi revealed in Detroit. If put into production, we could see it wearing the Q4 badge, giving Ingolstadt a rival to the likes of the BMW X4, Porsche Macan and Range Rover Evoque. However, until Audi tells us otherwise, that's all speculation...
Audi CEO Stadler gets 5-year contract extension
Sat, 17 May 2014Audi CEO Rupert Stadler will keep his seat at the top thanks to a contract extension. Volkswagen didn't divulge the length of the new contract, but German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung said the term is five years. Stadler took over the current position in 2007 when current VW CEO Martin Winterkorn left it. That year the brand sold 93,506 in the US and 964,151 in total worldwide; last year it sold 158,061 in the US and 1,575,480 in total worldwide.
Even though the brand has managed only about half the US sales of its two main rivals, it led the charge globally through the first two months of this year. Over the next few years we'll see its US efforts increase with a $30.3-billion investment, 11 new models and the opening of its first North American plant. And right now it can make hay with its World Car of the Year award winner, the A3.
In addition to Stadler, VW sales boss Christian Klingler is said to have received a five-year contract extension, and VW China head Jochem Heizmann has earned another two years on the job.
