new engines (ultra low emmission 3.0 TDI, 3.0 TFSI)

The other things you mentioned is the common understandig of the audi crowd on the web

Planning on getting one?

Yep, 3,0TDI most likely.

Do you know whether the front LEDs will be in headlights or down in the bumper just like V12 TDI ?

Bumper, IMHO...

LED tailights, LED front similar or same as V12, 4.2TDI/gearbox no changes except 250kW instead of 240kW engine output. Did not ask about 3.0 TDi (already have one... :hihi:).

Front bumper should have minor changes, I did not see any pics, all the above is from the Stealer. Production starts end of May/June.

They will take order and hold, I was quoted delivery around June 15 for facelifted model, current delivery still 8 weeks and this is 100 miles from the factory :hahahehe:

so much for crisis

I reckon it is the new 4,2TDI with 340hp and 850Nm. Quite a decent upgrade, especially +90Nm.

It should be in the new A8 from the start, that car wont be far from the new 750i acceleration wise i guess.

I am not sure about the torque increase, official Audi paper only said 250 kW (from 240), no changes to engine/gearbox

The big engines will still have Tip-Tronic, the smaller one's can maybe get S-Tronic.

AndyBG

It's lost a lot of it's flow from one panel to another, especially around the nose. Can't say I'm a fan.

Ben,

Don't misunderstand me, the Q7 was a great car to own but for our roads it was a bit too big. Compared to the Q5 it's not got the same sporty qualities.

The Q5 feels sporty, it can be hustled down a road at speed, it's body control is more similar to a normal estate car and it weighs close on 400kgs less which means like for like engines produce dramatically different results. The Q5 in 3.0TDi form will beat the X5 35d at everything, be it on the track or the road and get mighty close to a Cayenne S.

So unless you either want the extra size and space of the Q7 I feel the Q5 offers much, much more and for less cash.

Imagine if they bring out an RS or even S version of this, I believe they are close to finalising a 3.0dtt that will make it's way into the Cayenne among other things ;) then I could consider myself in the running for an SUV again. :dig:

Ben,

I hear you. For me, having more than 5 seats is required for us to take even one additional person with us (since we have 3 kids) so we'll always "need" something that seats more than 5. It's true we could always drive seperately when going places with company, but it is nice to just load everyone into the Denali (8 seater) and go. :cheers:

well, I'm sure you will enjoy the fine product of Government Motors for at least 3 more months before they finally go bancrupt (after you paid UAW untold billions for their vote last year :applause:)

And, Ben, you've forgot the dogs, so Q7 may be too small anyway :hihi:. Plus, unlike UK, CA roads are bild for the Suburban size comuters and Q5 would feel bit tiny in that enviroment - some may, by mistake, put it in the trunk of their Detroit built junker :lovl:
