With new electric vehicles popping up in the category seemingly every day, vehicles like the Mustang Mach E, the Volkswagen ID.4, and the Audi E-Tron will find themselves awash in competition shortly. Enter the Porsche E Macan, an all-electric SUV that promises to outdo others in range and sportiness.

Bigger batteries for electric cars mean more weight. But conventional automakers haven't developed batteries that are as light and cheap as Tesla's.

With Tesla's Model 3 testing now underway, the Audio e-tron jumps ahead of Tesla by being the top-rated BEV for safety.

Off to the Electric Chair! Unlike other legacy car companies with their so called 5 and 10 year plans toward electrification, this is how I know VW Group is pretty damn serious about meaning what it says about an electric future. Its lead luxury brand Audi plans on electrifying or eliminating some of its iconic signature vehicles way sooner, and in doing so, it’ll send a shakeup message to the luxury car market that electric cars are now the new marque to be judged.

The Audi A7, also called the A7 Sportback by some, has been named winner of the large car portion of Edmunds Value winner. The award looks at six months and 60 months to look at projected value and where the vehicle will likely sit.

Audi used this year's Geneva International Motor Show to unveil its e-tron Sportback model. At the time of the introduction, the automaker indicated there were at least three other EVs headed for market in the next year.

In a week when Volkswagen had many vehicles recalled for various reasons, Audi also recalled a number of A6 and A7 models to prevent possible fires. An electrical connector that runs very hot and presents the threat of fires were the subject of the recall.

Audi, which has produced some very interesting variants on its existing models, most notably the "S" series of sport vehicles, has no plans to build a second-gen Audi S1. According to a spokesman, there are many reasons for the move.

Here's an interesting tidbit: as you may suspect, automakers like to tease their special models. It's a way of hooking gearheads with the new iron well before the official release of the vehicle. That's exactly the way Audi has been handling the release of its EV E-Tron GT.

Available in markets throughout the globe, Audi's next-generation A1 Sportback began its production run at the SEAT plant in Martorell, Spain. The A1 replaces the Q3 crossover which has been moved to Hungary.

Long considered somehow beyond the reach of the Dieselgate scandal, German prosecutors some months ago jailed now former Audi chief Rupert Stadler.

2013 was only a few years ago, a long time for most, lightning fast time in the electric car universe, and after all the talk, the drafts, the drawings, the concepts, the rumors, the prototypes, and camouflaged pre-production vehicles since, Audi finally presents its first full electric car. With a price point of about $80,000 USD, the Audi e-Tron Quattro aims to take its throne as a heralded German electric, while finally taking on the American Teslas.

So, Audi announces the pricing for its Q8, five-door coupe and I have to scratch my chin: what exactly is a coupe? Doesn't Audi sell several coupe models such as the two-door TT? So, if it sells real coupes, how can it call a five-door crossover a coupe? It's a strange one, I'll admit.

Don't lament Audi's goodbye to manual transmission. Here is why it's good for you in the age of practicality.
