Audi A6 Ultra - More power, less emissions and greater MPG.

Audi has announced the A6 Ultra which produces more power, emits less CO2 and achieves greater MPG.

The new A6 ultra models are powered by a highly efficient EU6 emission-standard four-cylinder 2.0 TDI 190PS engine, and are available with a choice of six-speed manual or seven-speed S tronic transmission which will arrive later in the year. The new engine directly replaces the outgoing 2.0 TDI 177PS unit in both Saloon and Avant models, and offers a drop in CO2 from 132g/km to 114g/km and a rise in combined MPG from 47.1 to 55.4 mpg.

Audi A3 Saloon - It didn't appeal to me either but I love it.

Every car i've owned has been a hatchback. Presented with a choice of hatchback versus saloon i'm the type of person that would always choose a hatchback over a saloon. It's not about size either, i'd pick a Golf over a Passat and an A3 over an A4..... until today when i discovered that an A3 Saloon will be coming the the UK this autumn. Apparently the A3 saloon will be officially launched at the Shanghai motor how next month but below are pictures taken from an American photoshoot.

New Audi A3 TDIe review

UK motorists are fed up with high fuel prices, high taxation levels on fuel, road tax, congestion charges and for company car drivers, high benefit-in-kind charges.

Car manufacturers have responded by introducing lower CO2 emission models which are also more fuel efficient. So whether you are private buyer or a company car user there is now a much wider choice of tax-cheating models to choose from and more are on their way. One of the most popular models in the Audi premium brand range is their A3 line up of 3-Door and 5-Door Sportback variants.
