Audi sold around 437,792 cars with the all-wheel drive at 2010, with Q5 taking a lead with around 155,025 wheel drive models sold.  Obviously for many, real news is not that the Audi sits at a top while it comes about the luxury section all wheel drive sales.

While you are done with tossing around the back roads, the 2012 Audi Q5 willingly gets down in the business of maximizing the mpg. On an inflationary European cycle, the Audi claims about the combined fuel efficiency of 34mpg. We expect the EPA testing to go back to 26 mpg in the city & 27 on highway when compared with a 3.2 FSI’s 18 mpg city and non-hybrid 2.0’s 20. Making use of complete electric power, the 2012 Audi Q5 hybrid has the maximum speed of around 62 mph, though maximum range of nearly 2 miles needs that speeds to stay under 40mph.

2012 Audi TT RS

2012 Audi TT RS: The European version that we sampled almost two years ago made 340 hp from its turbocharged 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine. Much to our surprise and thrill, Audi says it’s pushing for U.S. cars to make about 20 more ponies for a total of around 360 hp. We asked where the extra power is coming from and were told it’s mainly from ECU tuning, so presumably the Euro cars could be updated as well. Our RS will also come equipped only with a six-speed manual transmission, and little else is changed from the overseas edition.

Only a few options will be offered on the limited run of less than 1000 cars. As of now, an exterior package featuring silver accents on the lower front and rear valance (matching the mirror caps) is planned, as is a Titanium pack bundling a blacked-out grille and trim with titanium-colored wheels, much like what is currently available on the A4, A5, S4, and S5. A sport exhaust option will provide a rowdier note from that already sweet sounding five. Those not in favor of the RS’s rear spoiler can opt for a factory delete.

2012 Aston Martin Virage

2012 Aston Martin Virage: Aston Martin to slot between the DB9 and DBS, but after getting the low-down on the new 2012 Virage, we're welcoming it with open arms. Based on the same VH architecture as the other cars in the English brand's lineup, the Virage uses Aston's wonderfully vocal 6.0-liter V12 to crank out 490 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. In the Virage, those dozen cylinders are stirred exclusively through the company's six-speed Touchtronic 2 paddle-shift transmission.

While the Virage's design isn't vastly different from anything else in the automaker's portfolio, it's definitely got some pizzaz. Much like the larger Rapide, we can't help but stare at this coupe for long periods of time – it's simply gorgeous. Need proof?
