Audi News: Rumorpile: Audi Fast-Tracks Development of e-tron quattro SUV, Puts Other Models On Hold
I have seen now that you can buy all the way up to 72V, 800Ah battery packs. I see the future being very strong with EV auto's. Cleaner, more reliable and less maintenance than traditional auto's.

Audi News: Rumorpile: Audi Fast-Tracks Development of e-tron quattro SUV, Puts Other Models On Hold
So my Take on this is as follows: VW, O-Sh$t, we just screwed our selves royally, what can we do to make people forget about this and minimize our massive billion dollar losses as we clean up this mess. EV Auto's now that there is dense Lio battery packs that can do a decent range. Personally, I think this is the right move for Audio. Shelve the TT crap, delay the Q4 and get this out. If they truly deliver 370 miles on a charge, then we will see people convert over and this would be the tipping point where auto companies realize that they can build a variety of EV auto's and dump petrol. We are in interesting times that will change the way we see and move about.

Cadillac News: Cadillac Is Working On A RWD Sedan To Sit Below ATS
So I wonder what Cadillac will call their EV line when they launch it? Should they have their own designation like what BMW did or more like MB where they just take existing models and have an EV version? Should it be a sub category all on it's own under existing categories? Cars are - CT CUVs are - XT Escalade is Escalade EV cars are - ? EV CUVs are - ?

General Motors Quietly Stops Production of Cruze Diesel in US
With more auto companies calling for a global emissions standard, I would expect diesel in Europe to follow the US as well as in China. I think Hybrid / EVs are going to by 2020 be replacing many auto's including diesel.

CT6 Pictures From Instagram..
Wow, interesting review, Love the quality of the hood, Everything I am seeing is truly quality built. Love the demo of the 4WS. Very cool to see them putting this on Cadillac where it belongs. The auto if freak-in beautiful and I truly say this competes with the 5 series and E Class.

Tesla emailed out today a sales pitch about Tesla OwnerShip made EASY. Model S for as little as $698 per months or equivalent of $531 per month after fuel savings. Trade in any lease or loan program auto and Tesla will help you unload the auto and get into a Tesla Certified Pre-Owned Tesla with 4yr-50,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty starting under $50,000 Small Print ends with *Lease - 10,000 miles per year max on 36 month lease Total due at signing $6393. So I wonder just how much Tesla is hurting? So what are your thoughts on this?

General Motors Quietly Stops Production of Cruze Diesel in US
Question as Drew has pointed out, the Whisper Diesel is scheduled for 2017, the drop for 2016 was known and expected and not news to those aware of the industry. Bigger question, if the BOLT takes off like I believe it will with a 225 mile battery pack as stated by GM, then is there a need for the Cruze Diesel? Will GM end up shelving it if the BOLT really takes off in sales? Thoughts?

Cool Little Truck, Imagine putting in the Duramax Diesel 2.8 L or the 1.6L turbo 4 banger. Make this thing scream. Agree with the story, only worth about $1K, not the $4K they are asking.

And they could put the Coupe on a modified S550 Platform But that would make it just as good or better than SMK's beloved MB product line.

Infiniti News: Infiniti Believes Q Nomenclature Isn't A Problem, Just Need to Message It Better
I agree, well the QX doesn't confuse me but I think they could have saved the X for AWD models. Q# cars QX# awd cars and just choose a random letter to signify SUV/SUV and do the same thing. Very True, BMW uses X for their awd auto's. This goes with the idiot who decided to drop AWD on the Escalade and go with 4WD which is also used on Suburbans. Yes as in another thread I learned that 4WD on the escalade allows you to go 2WD, 4WD High, 4WD LO and 4WD Auto which is pretty much the same as AWD. Just wish Cadillac had put some thought into this as it is a superior system to the old AWD system but does more than the 4x4 system on the suburban. Infiniti should have put more thought into their naming of Auto's.

Kid clearly must have had rich parents with the right connection to get an F1 driving gig as he is not that great of a driver even on snow.
