Filed under: Sedan , Audi , Celebrities , Design/Style , Luxury 2011 Audi A8 – Click above for high-res image gallery We’ve just returned from the Audi A8 world premiere here at Miami’s star-studded Design Week, and we’ve got a slew of images of the new range-topping sedan. More evolutionary than revolutionary in style, the new wundersedan is nevertheless an impressive looking piece with the visual charisma to go toe-to-toe with the celebrities that filed in to fawn over its broad shoulders. Despite the clear heritage link to the outgoing model, there are a number of new technologies under the skin that represent firsts for the brand, including full LED headlamps that adjust their direction and throw based on the navigation system, a new development of MMI that includes a handwriting recognition feature, and an updated 4.2-liter FSI V8 engine with more power (372 horses) and an eight-speed Tiptronic gearbox

That doesn’t mean we didn’t fantasize about all the great stunts we wished we could perform.

To many, the scheme seemed doomed from the get go and after a couple cash-hemorrhaging quarters coupled to the recent recession, the naysayers appeared right. Turns out, Tata can say nay to the naysayers as its two prestige/luxury brands just turned a profit.

Filed under: Budget , Specialty , Electric Our sleuthing colleagues over at The Truth About Cars have dissected electric car maker Zap’s latest 10-Q filing , and they unearthed the following little tidbit: “The decrease of $1.5 million (in revenue) is primarily due to the phase out of our three wheeled Xebra vehicle with reduced selling prices.” We can’t say that we’re particularly shocked that Zap has found it difficult to continue moving its little three-wheeled Xebra contraption, especially with discretionary spending money in such short supply these days and reasonably-priced hybrids flooding the used car market. Perhaps even more damning for Zap, though, is the admission that it is doing “less work on the development of the Alias prototype vehicle .” Whatever the future has in store for Zap in 2010 and beyond, one thing is for sure: there will be no shortage of press releases to let us all know what’s (supposedly) going on behind closed doors

But unlike the Mini One (which slots below the Cooper in overseas markets), Audi doesn’t intend to target the budget market. Instead, the new A1 will take aim directly at the Mini Cooper.
