It's an Audi Q5 diesel...S. It's also a concept and the latest buzz that's come out from Inglostad. However, when we say “concept” we don't really mean something far fetched. All is planned and the Audi dealerships will get their batch of TDI S goodness well into the first quarter of 2013.
So then, the core of the Audi SQ5: a 3.0-liter TDI engine that has two (not one) turbochargers. It's oily bits have been reinforced in way so that they can take the stress of 313 hp and 650 Nm of torque. Th

We often get figures from car makers that, from time to time beggar belief. Especially when we are talking about estimated mpg data. It goes without saying then, that nothing beats a real life test to see exactly what's what. That's exactly what record breaking duo John and Helen Taylor have done - travel 1626.1 miles on a single tank of fuel (a record breaking distance). The car of choice was a 2012, manual Volkswagen Passat TDI SE Clean Diesel.
It was a three day journey with a starting po

Welcome, to the Audi A6 Allroad. It's like that beefy relative of yours that's always around when a pickle jar needs to be opened. The one that also has a degree in geology... anyways. What we have here is a quattro Avant that comes with smart, stop/starting, thermo-efficient engines, a light body and a sturdy look.
There are four engine choices available – three diesels and a TFSI, all in the V6 category. That last one, the petrol, doesn't make much sense. It's 3.0-liter displacement accommoda

Ever wondered how WRC cars manage to deliver 300 bhp and above from an engine that, by rule, cannot exceed 2.0 liters of displacement? How on earth do the heavy, low-revving diesel engines in cars today stay competitive? Or what is it that makes it possible for the Bugatti Veyron to break the 1000 bhp threshold? Well, it certainly isn't witchcraft. By means of “forced induction”, turbochargers today boost the automotive industry to a new direction of smaller, more-efficient and bloody good fun e

Afzal Kahn has always maintained that combining technical perfection with aesthetic brilliance is his true calling. Recently, in the arsenal of his arguments, he has added yet another example – the Kahn Q7 wide track.
A voluminous amount of exterior parts have been added to form the vision of Afzal Kahn – the front fenders are now with huge vents complemented by flaring wheel arches on both ends. The front bumper is also new with, again, more vents on it and gunmetal gray detailing. Sill plates
