Spock is known throughout the galaxy as a supremely wise being. His balance of emotion and intelligence are hallmarks of his legendary career with Starfleet. Of course, he's also a fictional character originally portrayed by actor Leonard Nimoy. Now though, a younger Spock has emerged thanks to the new movie series, and he's played by actor Zachary Quinto. Audi has paired the two actors up in a new video titled The Challenge. It's a Spock versus Spock face-off that starts with a simple game of chess over an iPad. Quickly, however, it moves on to a mild race of sorts. The bet is last one to...

Audi Bringing RS 5 Cabriolet and RS 7 To The U.S., But No RS 6: Report
As anyone who’s driven Audi’s S6 and S7 models will tell you, the cars are distinctly different in personality, which helps Audi build a business case for both in the U.S. product line. If there’s room for an A6, an A7, an S6 and an S7, surely there's room for an RS 6 and RS 7...

2013 Audi S7 first drive review
Four-door coupes are all the rage these days, so it seems logical to us that Audi would opt to introduce an S version of its popular A7. Like the all-new-for 2013 Audi S6, the S7 rides on the Volkswagen group’s MLB platform and benefits from a new 4.0-liter, twin-turbo V-8 engine mated to a...

But that's set to change for the next generation of S models, according to previous reports, and these latest spy shots hint at just how the S7 will differentiate itself from the 2012 Audi A7, with fully undisguised bodywork, plus we get our first close-up glimpse at the instrument cluster. Borrowing most of its looks from the production Audi A7, the S7 adds to the package with specific performance enhancing upgrades. The new front bumper, revealed...

2012 Audi A7 first drive review
The 2012 Audi A7 has been a long time coming to the U.S. We first learned about the car from the official release nearly a year ago, in July 2010.

Video: Papercraft Audi A7 - Handmade, Not Good In The Rain
The 2011 Audi A7 might be big but it isn't particularly heavy for its size. Weighing in at around 3,900 pounds it's around 300 pounds lighter than its rival the BMW 5-Series GT despite the Quattro drivetrain. You can thank the part aluminum construction for that. Still, it could be lighter. And...

Like any other consumer goods, automobiles are heavily influenced by trends and market demands. Hybrid drivetrains, LEDs, infotainment systems and lightweight structural materials have all made their way into the cars of the 21ts century. We have even seen new classes of vehicles created. The crossover, for example, is a relative newcomer to the automotive scene. In fact, the whole spectrum of cars has evolved. Many compact, "economy" cars now offer what used to be luxury features. Even the biggest SUV's offer comfortable rides, and green powertrain options. One of the oldest and most common...
