Audi developing 'Modular Efficiency' brake-energy recovery tech

At its recent TechDay 2007 seminar in Germany, Audi talked up a new system under development that’ll analyze driver behavior and give fuel saving driving tips to help curb fuel consumption.

Where exactly is it written that audi makes the safest car in the world? It's not a safety issue but I just read Audi has the most factory defects when compared to BMW, MB, Lexus, and Infiniti. Including extensive oil leak problems.

Audi's 2.7T was rated one of the most troublesome engines in 2003 and 2004. And as for the first part I was asking a question. I've never read any deffinitive info on the safest luxury car. Except for all the legendary Volvo safety everyone always talks about. But that might have been before the Ford years.
