Watch: Audi Vision Gran Turismo Teased Again Ahead of Monday Reveal

Hold on to your hats, the next flight of professional automotive fancy is coming on Monday and it’s been designed by Audi.

We first saw the sultry shape of this car back in early March. Back then, Gran Turismo’s Facebook released the car’s silhouette promising the next Gran Turismo Vision vehicle.

For the uninitiated, the Gran Turismo series of racing games frequently gets automakers to design (and often actually build) crazy dream cars to be played in game.

Previous Vision GT showcars include the Bugatti Vision Gran Turismo, the VW GTI Supersport Vision Gran Turismo, and the Peugeot L500R and all manner of vehicles sure to to make you giggle with childlike glee.

This latest one, though we don’t know much, is promised to be an e-Tron model, which is on brand for Audi. It will also be branded by Audi Sport, makers of RS models, which is an interesting confluence of Audi subbrands, promising both pace and electricity.

Check back in on Monday to see what the car looks like and just what Audi has in mind for this e-concept.

Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford.

None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as

Waterfest Moves to Atco Dragway

Waterfest 24 will be held at Atco Dragway, in Atco, New Jersey. The summer event will take place at its new venue on July 21 and 22. Long held in Englishtown, New Jersey, the festival has been such a large part of the VW scene that the latest iteration of the Golf even comes with optional “Englishtown” wheels . The new venue, however, is an NHRA drag track a scant 52 miles southwest of Englishtown. The ¼ mile drag track opened in 1960, which makes it the oldest drag strip in New Jersey. The announcement came today on a social media post that announced the new location. Waterfest is North America’s largest VW/Audi show. As many 20,000 people show up for the annual show, making the second largest show in the world—with Worthersee being number one. 2018 will be Waterfest’s 24 th year in existence.
