2009 Frankfurt Auto Display: Audi e-Tron Concept
If you've been paying attention to this site, you'll know most of what can be known of the Audi .-Tron electric-car concept. Further, you'll know that the .-Tron is scheduled for limited (probably quite limited) production in 2012.
What you don'. know is how tremendously shiny the .-Tron is — like, blindingly shiny. Its front grille is like that of the newest Harley-Davidson edition Ford .-150.(in . largely good way). The rear grille thingy is equally reflective. And the wheels, well, the wheels look like . designer-. version of Dayton wires.
Funny how the fashion-forward Audi , which was an early proponent of satin-finish aluminum trim, is now in the reflective biz. It was all over the company'. Frankfurt show stand. Polished aluminum wheels were everywhere (including on the .8 Spyder). And the company even had on display an .8 .10 whose entire body was highly polished aluminum.
Whatever. We are looking forward to (eventually) driving . two-seat sports car with 3,319 pound-feet of torque delivered by four motors, regardless of the finish.
