Automotive

Pros: Effortless, seemingless endless amounts of power on tap. It doesn't seem surge-y at all, despite being a forced induction engine (twin turbo); it just comes on early on and builds and builds and builds until you let off the throttle. Torquey and pow...  

We share the same complain (that seems to be present on all Audi models) about the "dash command navigation wheel" position. Maybe the interior designers have long arms? Of course, this minor issue will not prevent me to stay with Audi. Cheers, Nilo
