Audi to get an electric version of the VW Up!
An inside scoop form CAR Magazine is reporting that Audi will get an electric version of the upcoming Volkswagen Up! as soon as the Volkswagen branded compact car hits the markets. When will that be?

Well, previous reports suggest that Volkswagen delayed the launch of the Up! from late 2010 to early 2011 due to plans to switch the engine from the rear to the front. So we’re guessing the Audi electric version of the Up! will arrive sometime in mid to late-2011.

There is no official word as to which three versions of the Up! Audi will be getting, but sources say most of the...

Historically speaking, German's are great with combustion but not so great with electronics.

Historically speaking? What are you talking about. German cars had some nagging problems with electronics in the mid 1990s to early 2000/2002. Is that what you call "historically speaking"?

Well its going a bit far back but BMW's of the 80's were really bad... Merc have been really bad too and although better were still less reliable than the industry average in the latest DJ reliability surveys.

But on the whole the Germans are not bad right now, so not really a fair comment although there is a truth there...

That could be pretty hilarious!

Off the top of my head:

"I have a MBA from Wharton! I mean, Pheonix University online school of hairdressing"

"All bask in the glory of my fleet of BMWs, which, though I know nothing about any of you, are obviously superior to the turds you drive!"

"Hey! I'm 41 years old and I still pick on fat people, poor people, and retarded people, making me perhaps the biggest douche ever!"

"Audi (VW) owners are fat, poor, burger-flippers"

"Badge-engineering! Badge-engineering! Badge engineering!"

"Please chart me a supply and demand curve, you plebian!"

"Audi can only increasing market share by selling overweight, underpowered, FWD POS's to the Chinese!"

"Ploughing"

"Hey mom, can you stop giving a hand-job to that strip club mens' room attendant long enough to reheat my Spaghetti-O's?"

"Nose-heavy"

"Fat, Lazy Union workers should all be fired!"

Ugh, this could go on forever...

amazinarrogance.

you think driving a BMW gives you some sort of superiority complex? You are so full of BS without the B. Maybe get that sack of potatoes off your shoulder.

Fine, why don't you go to ivyleaguecartalk.com and talk cars with other geniuses. Obviously no one can match your smarts here.

I am sure this will be an excellent electric car.
