Audi

The Audi A5 Cabrio is set to be revealed at the Paris Motor Show – but that is too far away for some of us who are not patient enough to wait and see what it will look like. A spy photo caught the Cabrio without its camouflage driving in the Switzerland.

Audi has been awarded the European Inventor of the Year Award by the European Patent Office for all of the new and innovative new products that they have come up with this year. Audi has been creating these products as ways to help Europe do better in the global market.
The specific product that the award goes to is the aluminum space frame – which is the underpin for the Audi TT, R8, A8, and the Lamborghini Gallardo.

Hybrid SUV’s are becoming quite popular in the market overseas – but when it comes to the United States they are finding it difficult to work their way into the hearts of consumers. Because of this automakers are seriously considering whether or not offering a gasoline-electric hybrid SUV will be worth the money and the risk.

It’s that time of year again to announce the winner of the 2008 World Car of the Year Award. Cars from around the world are judged on their value, safety, merit, and of course how responsible and helpful they are to the environment. I know that each of us were rooting for our personal favorites (Mercedes S-Class) – but here are the three finalists; the Mazda2/Demio, Ford Mondeo, and Mercedes C-Class. The winner was (drum roll) the Mazda2/Demio – which was a bit of a surprise to some of us here at CarXen.

If there was one thing that we didn’t expect to see at the Chicago Auto Show it would have to be the 2008 Special Edition Audi A4. The car is truly special with all of the new features that it comes with – which gives us more options and increases the value of the vehicle.
