The all-electric Audi e-tron is already confirmed for production by 2012, possibly named the R4, but so far we've been in the dark on volume, but that's a detail that may have been filled in by the latest reports, which peg the number at just 1,000 cars. That's a very low number, but it fits with the highly exclusive purpose of the all-electric sports car, and is probably a fairly realistic representation of the demand for such a car.

Audi's R8 Spyder and the e-Tron concept car both debuted at Frankfurt in September, but that's no reason to pass up another chance to see them live, especially when they're both dressed up in a new color. The 2011 R8 Spyder's red is particularly attractive, though from some angles the rosso sheen does give the car a bit of the look of a Ferrari F430 Spyder. Still, it's a beautiful car--especially inside the V-10 engine bay. Orange as orange can be is the e-Tron, for no readily apparent reason other than to not be red, as it was in Frankfurt. While the color doesn't look quite as appealing to...
