Not so long ago, seeing a Lamborghini in the snow was a big deal. LM002 notwithstanding, that all changed a few years back with the arrival of the Urus. The all-season Lambo is expected to perform in any climate, and that goes for the future plug-in hybrid trim level. New spy shots capture a Urus PHEV test vehicle making sure winter weather is not an issue for the electrified super SUV. And if rumors about the powertrain are correct, there shouldn't be any major surprises. Our sources believe that Lamborghini will borrow plug-in hybrid tech from Porsche , specifically the twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 and electric motor from the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid . If a Porsche engine in a Lamborghini sounds a bit sacrilegious, take heart in knowing it shouldn't be just a straight swap.

Audi RS6 E-Tron Possibly Spied For The First Time
The Audi A6 E-Tron is the brand's upcoming electric sedan. These spy shots might be our first look at the RS6 performance variant of the EV. The body matches closely with previous spy shots of the A6 E-Tron. However, this one has larger brake discs with big, red calipers. This leads the spy photographers to think that the vehicle here could be the RS6 EV. Gallery: Audi RS6 E-Tron Spy Photos 16 Photos We can't be completely sure this is accurate, though. We would expect the RS6 also to have a more aggressive body. However, the camouflage wrap on this vehicle could be hiding things. The exterior design of this car includes split headlights and a smooth nose with a trapezoidal inlet along the bottom of the fascia. There's a sleek roofline from the side. At the back, there are wedge-shaped taillights. Audi hasn't shown the interior of either of its A6 E-Tron … [Read more...] about Audi RS6 E-Tron Possibly Spied For The First Time
