So brave

Bet they go back in 10 years

Like as I’m developing better technology? Cause that I could see. Plus the press release gives them woke points when they really aren’t doing anything.

Fucking zero chance this is true. As a German car guy, no fucking way this is happening. The parent company all of a sudden going to make

Lamborghini
Porsche
VW
Audi F1

Porsche isn’t defending all of their titles all electric on the GT and Lemans circuit.

Woke points from people that can't afford them? Smart move. Lol

I'll go for the Electric Hummer if i'm gonna spend $100K+

That mean they're just going to buy someone else's engines and slap them in Audi vehicles?

I'll pay someone to refab the vehicles I want before I go electric.

Fuck these people.

They will just run what they have for the next xxx years before going to full EV. I believe Volvo has said the same thing and Toyota is rumored to be going away from 8 cylinder for new Tundra.

I will always love the internal combustion engine, and it will always be better than electric in some ways...but the new Tesla going 0-60 in 1.9 fucking seconds has changed alot of my thoughts about electric. The speed, torque, and absolute simplicity (less maintenance) are far ahead of what internal combustion will ever be. Still, seems premature to stop its development.

I have a Tesla and an Audi. I'll probably sell the Audi and buy another Tesla soon. I've been hearing that Audi was going all electric soon for a while now, so I fully believe this. I'm pretty pumped to see what Audi can do in the near future with an all electric car.

Only 80k for the 3 motor + full self.

The thought of all EV, intrinsically tied to a network, gives me shivers. Say the wrong thing, go to the wrong place, flip a switch and you're parked. Transportation, phones, utilities... Networking everything is a noose around our collective necks.

Definitely a slippery slope.
It'll be like 5th Element.
