Audi Q5 A6 dan A8 Hybrid range

First there was the Audi Q5 hybrid Quattro and A6, then came the hybrids are now joined by a hybrid range of A8. The first hybrid and the new Audi family so formed, by the same mechanism, gasoline direct-injection 2.0 TFSI with 211 hp combined with a 54 hp electric motor and the second related to the 8-speed tiptronic gearbox. And the result, pleasant and quiet as any Audi, with the same level of benefits.

The range of hybrid Audi Q5 hybrid Quattro, A6, and A8 hybrid. All using the same propulsion system based on four-cylinder 2.0 TFSI work related to the electric motor integrated into the gearbox, and a combustion engine is automatically engaged. Audi has created a hybrid technology with both engines running in parallel are connected through a coupling that allows them to operate together or individually.

Combustion engine develops maximum power of 211 hp, while the electric motor, which is housed in a compact size of the gap in the hydraulic torque converter tiptronic, developing 54 hp at 2300 rpm. The electric motor acts together with the combustion engine using a multi-plate clutch in oil bath coordinated. In addition, the electric motor can function as a generator electric traction, to start the combustion engine, or as an alternator during deceleration or braking, generating electricity to recharge the battery. Both machines, if they work at producing 245 hp maximum power and maximum torque of 480 Nm.

Audi hybrid system gives the driver five modes of operation: only the combustion engine, electric motor only, the hybrid mode, the mode of intense acceleration or energy recovery mode. The driver does not have to worry about anything, the electronic control system which automatically selects the mode of use, do refer to the battery power level, the behavior or requirements made by the driver of the car, and driving program are available from three, which is an electric EV mode, efficient or "D" and the sport mode "S". The electric EV gives priority to the electric motor if possible, can travel up to three miles at a constant speed of 60 km / h. Accessed via the tiptronic to the "D" efficiency-seeking, or how the "S" for sport settings.

Audi Q5 hybrid Quattro, the first of the range, and although very few, the most economical, is the permanent four-wheel electric motors even if it does not work, with a ratio of 40:60 between the axles, variable adhesion conditions up to 65 percent of the total torque available for front, and up to 85 percent to the rear axle. Audi Q5 hybrid Quattro offers a top speed of 225 km / h, with acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in 7.1 seconds and an average consumption of 6.9 l/100 km. Unlike the rest of the hybrid range, this is the most loss of boot space, offering 460 liters to 1480 liters and the rear seats folded. With the Audi Q5 Hybrid, enjoy the journey and the user can forget all the time efficiency and ecological philosophy that surrounds the car. Not because hybrid cars have to be boring, like the other cars those have a sales promotion. Audi is not planning tool to get from one place to another, driving a car that invites efficient and achieve 6.9 liters per 100 km / h, without giving a good acceleration and performance levels.

With a hybrid Audi A6 goes something like this. References and performance results in the same range will be the Audi A6 3.0 TDI, but Quattro Audi A6 sedan hybrid is efficient and lightweight hybrid vehicles in its class thanks to technology that uses aluminum and steel manufacturing is.

We are talking about four-cylinder engine. With an average consumption is 6.2 l/100 km, providing a variety of 1,200 km ... talking about cars with petrol engine has a top speed of 238 km / h and accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in 7.3 seconds. Has a 375 liter trunk is blocked by the battery and cooling. With the rear seatbacks fold comes to 850 liters (body only what is on the sedan).

Meanwhile, the Audi A8 hybrid is king. With exquisite image size for the technology of course is a perfect representation of a hybrid car, and impressed the body weight, through the manufacturing system Audi Space Frame (ASF), weighing only 231 kg, with how big it is. So in part it is also the most efficient with an average consumption of 6.3 l/100 km, and without ignoring the benefits, because the Audi A8 hybrid accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in 7.7 seconds and reach speeds of 235 km / h, Audi engineers have tried to solve include as standard a set of five suitcase that is perfect and optimize the available space.

Opportunity to perform at the same range has brought me some of my doubts about this car. Unlike what happens with other brands that make the flag of hybrid technology, cars or appliances that are not boring to drive. In addition, the hybrid technology of the Audi invites you to experience the benefits of driving a more efficient, thanks to the performance, feel and performance level, which is similar to the same cars but with more powerful engines and higher consumption. Interestingly, technology and operations, especially in electric mode, no one said that Audi is cheaper, and less with the technology so much, and the boot capacity, which greatly reduced compared to the hybrids that are not in a location by entering a lithium ion battery and cooling thereof. Is the price to pay to have the latest Audi ... now is the time you think to have one of the Audi A8, a6 or Audi q5
