Latest Audi Tech Info (DSG/Turbo R8/A1).

Interview with Michael Dick at the Frankfurt show.

A1 Concept in Tokyo. On sale in 2010, Polo platform.

Facelifted A3+convertible (Tokyo?) 2008, all new in 2012 (sounds longer that other sources have indicated)

Q5 2008, shares parts with A4/A5, hybrid, diesel for US

DSG in A4/A5: 2008

RS6 TT V10 in R8, yes.

Next gen Bentleys will be "sisters" to the A8 and will use aluminum for 150 kg weight savings.

Re: Latest Audi Tech Info (DSG/\Turbo R8/A1)

There is a rumor that R8 V12 TDI was cancelled and that's why Audi is using the V10 biturbo in the R8 instead of the V10 NA.

Re: Latest Audi Tech Info (DSG/Turbo R8/A1).

Porsche's line up will also be getting DSG next year or very late this year. I wonder if Audi and Porsche will be using the same gearbox.

No, Porsche is developping its own Gearbox.

True. Also in cooperation with Getrag.

But it won't be the same DCT BMW will use.

Why must you always involve BMW in every topic?
