in 1.12 billion USD

Volkswagen
owned Audi were earlier negotiating with Ducati owner Investindustrial
to buy out the Italian exotic bike maker, but it has now culminated to a
deal. The marriage of the two automotive giants fits well with Audi’s
ambitious ‘Project Eagle,’ aimed at elevating VW to becoming the world’s
largest auto manufacturer.
Earlier, Andrea Bonomi, Investindustrial head had stated that
Ducati was looking for a world class industrial partner for its future
growth & wanted to sell the iconic brand for one billion Euros.
The purchase will make Ducati the 11th brand in VW’s
portfolio. Ducati sold 42,000 motorcycles through 2011 & commands a
nine percent share in its segment. The company has been making all the
right moves over the past few years, launching segment leading
motorcycles like its versatile Multistrada 1200, the Diavel power
cruiser & 1199 Panigale race replica.

It comes as no surprise that we find this golden Audi R8 super car in the oil rich capital of over the top tuning, Dubai. What sets this particular R8 apart from all the other GT machines that have undergone the King Midas treatment is that instead of blinding onlookers with a brilliant reflective surface, draws them closer to adore the matte-gold super car. This rendition makes the matte-black R8 with its stealth like finish look rather dull.

The five-door coupe from Audi combines supreme, long-distance comfort with a sporty character. The interior noise level is very low even at fast highway speeds, with the V6 engines providing refined acoustic feedback as their power unfolds.
The excellent vibrational comfort likewise contributes to the atmosphere of cultured tranquility on board. This is the result of painstakingly tuning all components, systematic hydraulic damping in the axle and drivetrain bearings and the extremely stiff body. The body is comprised primarily of aluminum and high-tech steels, making it extremely lightweight and safe. The large rear hatch opens wide to reveal a large, extremely usable luggage compartment that is very easy to load. Its 535-liter (18.89 cu ft) capacity swells to a volume of 1,390 liters (49.09 cu ft) with the rear seat backrests folded down.
With the Audi A7 Sportback, which will be rolling into dealerships in the fall at a base price of €51,600, Audi is taking up a new design line representing elegance on a grand scale. The five-door coupe is 4.97 meters (16.31 ft) long and 1.91 meters (6.27 ft) wide, but only 1.42 meters (4.66 ft) high. Its long hood, the short front overhang, the long wheelbase, the sportily flowing C-pillars and the sharply dropping rear create a dynamic overall impression. The five-door coupe is an aesthetic athlete with a wide, powerful road stance.

AUDI UNVEILS TRACK-READY TT GT4
AUDI UNVEILS TRACK-READY TT GT4
Audi has taken the wraps off a new track-only TT model. Dubbed the Audi TT GT4 concept, the coupe is largely based on the range-topping TT RS and is aimed at private racers.
Developed by the Technical Development and Audi’s Quattro GmbH division, the TT GT4 sports a number of changes to help with its on-track prowess. Starting with a motorsports body, the TT GT4 was then fitted with a racing-spec roll cage, plastic windows, a new fuel tank and the same spoilers found on the TT RS.
Also borrowed from the TT RS is the TT GT4’s 2.5L five-cylinder engine, developing 340 horsepower. That power is shifted via Audi’s S-tronic gearbox with a differential lock.
To ensure the TT GT4 stays glued to the track, Audi has fitted it with a revised suspension – including adjustable dampers – and race-ready 18 inch wheels.
The TT GT4 will be sold in Europe and Asia, carrying a starting price of about $156,000. Audi currently doesn’t have any plans to sell the TT GT4 in North America
