To be really honest, the Passat's looks are its downfall. I might be giving it away too early in this story, but the Passat is truly a great car to drive and own, I just wished it looked just as good. It is by no means ugly, but at the same time, it lacks a strong personality. It just looks bland - which I guess will work for those who don't want too much attention.

The A1 e-tron contains technology that Audi’s development engineers are using to study the mobility requirements for such a future-oriented concept. The technological basis includes an electric motor with a maximum output of 75 kW that is powered by a lithium-ion battery. The battery features a 12 kWh capacity and can be completely charged in 30 minutes (quick charge), or in less than three hours (standard charge). It offers a range of 50 kilometres. To prevent drivers from being stranded by an empty battery, the A1 e-tron also comes equipped with a combustion engine, which can charge the battery as needed. The one-disc rotary engine (254 cc) is located under the trunk floor; it provides 15 kW of output intended solely to charge the battery, rather than to directly power the wheels.

The unique A-shaped body allows Plantronics to incorporate three microphones. The call button is located at the top, and the voice recognition button is in the middle. Even though these buttons are flush with the overall design, they are fairly easy to press, and are far enough apart that you won't mistake one for the other. This headset is slightly thick, but it is light enough not to be noticed. A small selection of ear gels and a clear plastic ear-loop provides a comfortable fit for most ears.

Interview - TECHART CEO, Thomas Behringer

IN Porsche, 911, Turbo, Techart, Autovox

Ever wondered what makes a car like the TECHART GT Street so awesome? Here are some clues: Power, style, attention to detail and creativity. Qualities found in the car, and the man behind it.


For this Porsche, life started out as a standard 2008 911 Turbo (997) paired with a Tiptronic transmission, but not for long as it was soon endowed with a TECHART Twin Turbo setup and T35 Stage 3 engine modifications, cooled down by TECHART carbon air intakes and intercoolers. Being mated to the standard all wheel drive drive train of the 911 Turbo has its benefits, this ensures optimum traction for all that extra power it produces.
