Audi Gran Tursimo Vision Car Teased

One of the neater aspects of the Gran Turismo series is its relationship with automakers who gamefully prepare Vision GT showcars for the game.

The latest has just been teased by Gran Turismo and has been designed by Audi Sport. The outline promises a sleek, low supercar lots of aero elements, including a big ol’ wing.

Intriguingly, the post also hashtags e-Tron, implying that it will be electric.

The car could be a vision of things to come, as Audi and Porsche get to work on a shared electric platform for their “premium cars.”

Together, they will work on a range of electric vehicles and a halo supercar to show upstarts Tesla what the full force of the Volkswagen empire is capable of would be just the ticket to shed electric vehicles’ green, compliance-born reputation.

Previous Vision GT showcars include the Bugatti Vision Gran Turismo, the VW GTI Supersport Vision Gran Turismo, and the Peugeot L500R.

Keep an eye out for this sexy Audi visionGT car on April 9, when it’s released to the world.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it. Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.
