Audi’s hybrid plans temporarily on hold |
The intention of Audi for gasoline-electric hybrids is temporarily on hold after a decision to delay the hybrid Q5. It was unveiled by Autocar in July that the Q7 would not receive a hybrid powertrain, with the firm opting to focus instead on more economical diesels and weight reduction from its vehicles.Presently the Audi Q5, which was next in the list for the technology, won’t be offered as a hybrid either. “Audi won’t produce a petrol-electric hybrid until we can make nickel metal hydride batteries safer in crash situations, and hybrid technology more efficient overall.
