2022 Audi E-Tron GT Vs The Competition: How These EVs Compare
Here's how Audi’s new EV stacks up against Lucid, Porsche, and Tesla. It's been a long time coming, but the 2022 Audi E-Tron GT is finally here. The first Audi electric sedan uses Porsche Taycan underpinnings but employs a number of specific design elements and interior cues to help it stand out from its not-so-distant cousin. Unlike the Taycan, though, the E-Tron GT comes with two electric motors and more horsepower out of the box – as well as a range-topping RS model. But more power also means that the E-Tron is a bit pricier than the Porsche to start. More On The Audi E-Tron GT: ⠀ 2022 Audi E-Tron GT Debuts Today: See The Livestream Performance The E-Tron GT features a standard dual-motor setup, unlike the Taycan's newly added base rear-motor layout.

VW gets 1.6 TDI fix approval and says diesel trick is legal in Europe
Both software and hardware changes are necessary. With the official approval of The Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA) in Germany, VW is getting ready to kick off another recall campaign caused by the messy and costly Dieselgate . This time around, it involves a total of 2.6 million European cars equipped with the turbodiesel four-cylinder, 1.6-liter TDI engine from the now infamous EA 189 family. It’s installed in a wide array of models from Audi, Skoda, and SEAT, as well as in cars from the core brand. VW’s engineers will have to apply a “software update” to make things right once again, and owners of affected cars are going to be contacted by the company in the weeks to come. In addition, the engine will have to go through some hardware changes as a so-called "flow conditioner" will be affixed upstream of the air mass meter, a procedure which will require less than a half an hour of working time. With both software and hardware modifications in place, cars fitted … [Read more...] about VW gets 1.6 TDI fix approval and says diesel trick is legal in Europe
Ladies And Gentlemen, Meet The Next US Postal Service Delivery Truck
Oshkosh Defense will receive a 10-year contract to build the Next Generation Delivery Vehicle. The aptly named Grumman Long Life Vehicle has served as the official vehicle of the United States Postal Service for more than 30 years, but all good things must come to an end eventually. Soon, your packages and parcels will arrive at your doorstep via the Oshkosh Defense Next Generation Delivery Vehicle, or NGDV for short. Oshkosh will finalize the design of the NGDV before putting it into production under a 10-year USPS contract. Like its predecessor , the van will be right-hand-drive, and it carries a friendly, slightly cartoonish new design. The low hood and cowl improve forward visibility, one of the Grumman LLV’s greatest strengths, while a higher roofline and walk-in cargo area allow mail carriers to more easily organize deliveries and access parcels from the cockpit. An automatic parking brake and curbside sliding cargo door further improve convenience when the mail … [Read more...] about Ladies And Gentlemen, Meet The Next US Postal Service Delivery Truck
