Audi gears up for the green age with five eco-friendly electric cars

Treading closely behind the green Honda and Lexus vehicles, Audi once again gets a chance to park in our green transport slot. About two weeks back, it was the all-LED Audi R8 that grabbed the limelight. Today it’s the silent buzz surrounding a whole new lineup of five eco-friendly Audis. These low carbon-emitting cars, christened as E1 to E5, range from city cars to racing beasts. Though there isn’t a detailed official word on this eco-friendly family of cars, it is known that E1 is the tiniest of the five. Based on the VW Up sub compact concept and fitted with small gas and diesel engines, E1 will graduate to an electric motor heart. Moving up to the two-door E2, it’s based on the VW Concept BlueSport. This one too will be shipped with two three cylinder engines at start but later will come in electric version.

The E3 is just and light-weight version of E2 but without an option of electric heart. E4 reminds us of the former A2 from the same house. Modified with a high roof and muscular body, this one leads the way for green sporty vehicles. Lastly, the E5 sports car is supposed to be based on the Audi A1.
So all Audi fans, city-riders or racers, can watch out for these good-for-environment vehicles in the near future! They have one for every need.
