Audi - Efficient Drive Systems for Today and Tomorrow

- Integrated strategy reduces fuel consumption and emissions
- Audi produces the world’s cleanest diesel
- Hybrid modules for use in various model series

Audi is pursuing a consistent strategy to achieve further reductions in fuel consumption and emissions. By the year 2012, Audi will have reduced the CO2 emissions from its models by around 20 percent and in doing so have enhanced considerably their sporty, sophisticated character even further. At the heart of this strategy are technologies from the Modular Efficiency programme and the future-proof TDI engines with ultra low emission system. These are the world’s cleanest diesel engines, combining agility and pulling power with excellent fuel consumption figures and unrivalled low emissions. A construction kit with hybrid modules for different vehicle models rounds off the efficiency strategy.

“This underlines Audi’s many years in the role of pioneer in developing and marketing cutting edge technologies. We shall continue to bolster the position of the TDI as a highly efficient power system”, explains Rupert Stadler, Chairman of the Board of Management of AUDI AG. “And with our TFSI engines, optimised vehicle architecture and hybrid modules, we shall offer solutions for all standards and all applications, solutions that combine a high degree of drivability with exemplary low fuel consumptions.”
