Once again Audi is showing extremes of performance at a motor show. At one end of the spectrum is the mighty
RS6 saloon, finally joining the
Avant version in the price lists, and at the other a super efficient A4 TDI turbodiesel concept e. The
new S4 also makes an appearance, the smaller supercharged 3.0-litre V6 giving it more performance than its V8 predecessor while using less fuel and producing less emissions. Add a future-looking mild hybrid concept dubbed the A1 Sportback (though the production version of this funky small hatch is not expected until 2012) to the stand and Audi is well worth looking out for in Paris.
