The 2019 Goodwood Festival of Speed is happening July 4th through July 7th, so we thought it would be a good idea to share some vintage racing content that is especially cool: a mid-engine prototype Audi Group S rally car at Goodwood back in 2017.

WR TV: 2016 Audi A6 3.0T Quattro

This week we’re at the helm of Audi’s mid-sized sports sedan, the A6. This particular model gets a zestier power train than the manual gearbox-equipped A5 coupe we recently tested, here powered by a supercharged 3.0-liter V6 making 333 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque, rather than the 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque generated by the turbocharged 2.0-liter four cylinder that powered the A5.

WR TV: 2015 Audi S8

This week we’re behind the wheel of the Audi’s full sized luxury sedan, the refreshed-for-2015 A8, here in performance specification as the S8. The big Audi’s Quattro all-wheel-drive system is an ideal fit for Michigan’s already wintery weather – so much so that we really couldn’t keep ourselves out of this Ingolstadt and decided to include a third night time drive video to see how the S8 fared in the snowy conditions with compromised visibility.

Los Angeles 2014: Audi A7 Sportback H-Tron Quattro Concept Packs a Plug-In Hydrogen Powertrain

While the current batch of plug-in hybrids are seen as some of the most environmentally friendly vehicles on the road today, it’s tough to beat the environmental credentials of a hydrogen fuel cell car, whose emissions are just a few drops of water. Audi has gone a step further with the Audi A7 Sportback H-Tron Quattro Concept, adding an 8.8 kWh lithium-ion battery that can be recharged via a power socket, giving the fuel cell vehicle even more flexibility. But perhaps even more intriguing is the fact that this one actually sounds fun to drive.

Update: 2015 Audi R8 V10 Competition is the Most Powerful Car in Company’s History

While we thoroughly enjoyed our recent stint with the R8 V10 Plus, we also noted that the first generation of Audi’s supercar was starting to show some signs that it was ready for a major update. With a new second-generation R8 due out next year that will share substantial portion of its underpinnings with the Lamborghini Huracán (much the way the current car shares tech with the Gallardo), Audi saw fit to give the first generation R8 a proper send-off in the form of the R8 V10 Competition – the most powerful production car in Audi’s history.
