Audi's sporting heritage was highlighted
at Geneva with a display that showcased
innovative design and impressive efficiency.
New Audi TT
The iconic shape of the original 1998 TT
sports car is echoed in the design of the
all-new TT (pictured above).
About the same size as its predecessor,
the new TT uses weight-saving steel and
aluminium with pioneering technology that's
to the fore in the all-digital Audi virtual
cockpit and minimalist interior detailing.
Engine choice comprises a 2.0 TFSI unit
available with two outputs, a 230PS version
for the TT and a 310PS unit for the TTS, both
using a heavily revised quattro system and a
six-speed S tronic transmission.
Of key interest is the highly efficient
2.0 TDI 184PS engine with six-speed
manual gearbox driving the front wheels.
Delivering a 0-62mph time of 7.2secs*
and a 146mph* maximum, the 2.0 TDI
is capable of up to 67.2mpg* on the
combined cycle, and CO2 emissions of an
unprecedented 110g/km*.
First deliveries are expected in late
2014, with prices still to be confirmed.
Audi S1 and S1 Sportback quattro
With a 231PS 2.0 TFSI engine and quattro
all-wheel-drive, the S1 and S1 Sportback
quattro (right) establish a new subcompact
sector in Audi’s renowned ‘S’ range.
0-62mph in just 5.8secs belies combined
fuel consumption of up to 40.3mpg and CO2
emissions from 162g/km.
Inside, ‘S’-model grey dials go with
a three-spoke flat-bottomed ‘S’ multi-
function leather steering wheel, Sports
seats in Milano leather/Olympic cloth, full
climate control, a six-speaker CD radio with
6.5˝ retractable colour display, Bluetooth®
interface and Driver’s Information System.
Available to order now, S1 prices start
from £24,900 OTR.*Preliminary data subject to confirmation
Sensational all-new Audi TT redefines an icon and heads sporting theme at Geneva
The Geneva Motor Show always means an exciting time of the year for us here at Audi, and with the reveal of the exciting new Audi TT, 2014 is another landmark.
It’s some 16 years since the original TT made its debut, and the all-new TT pays homage to that iconic design with technology that’s true to its origins as a truly practical sports car.
In fact, so advanced is the engineering under that sleek skin that the new TT 2.0 TDI will, despite its sporting character, be one of the cleanest models in the Audi range, with CO2 emissions from just 110g/km and combined fuel consumption of up to 67.2mpg.
Of course, such efficiency in our newest models sets a precedent for the others in our range, and we are delighted to be able to share with you the introduction of our new Audi ultra technology.
Audi ultra means reduced CO2 and improved fuel consumption. And with A4, A5 Coupé and A6 ultra models all offering significant BIK tax savings as well as reduced operating costs compared with the previous models, that’s a benefit to everyone.

Audi wins through in FN50 reliability survey
A3 Saloon takes top What Car? award
Audi is the UK’s most reliable manufacturer
according to the 2013 FN50 reliability survey,
which has gauged the opinion of over 600,000
company car drivers served by the country’s top
50 leasing companies.
The FN50 survey, commissioned annually
by specialist fleet publication Fleet News, is
the nation’s largest poll of vehicle reliability. It
asks participants from the top 50 (by fleet size)
leasing companies to rank the best vehicles and
manufacturers for reliability, and then filters
each category into a Top 10.
Two Audi models – the A3 and A4 Saloon and
Avant – appear in the Most Reliable Cars Top 10,
the A3 ascending from seventh position in 2012
to fifth in 2013 and the A4 from third to second
place. The A1, Q3 and TT sports car also climbed
the rankings in the results, helping to secure
Audi’s dominant overall position.
“The holy grail is to achieve the lowest possible
tax and fuel bills without compromising the
sense of luxury and abundant performance”.
So said What Car? magazine in its editorial
introducing the Executive car class of the 2014
Car of the Year Awards.
It's fitting, then, that the Audi A3 Saloon
2.0 TDI Sport was the overall winner. Company
car tax of just £69 a month for a 20% tax
payer in 2014/15, or £138 for a 40% tax payer,
disguises the fact that the A3 Saloon’s punchy
150PS 2.0 TDI engine can power it to 62mph in
just 8.7secs yet emit just 107g/km of CO2 and
achieve 68.9mpg on the combined cycle.
That sense of luxury is fulfilled by a standard
equipment list that includes 17˝ alloy wheels,
dual-zone climate control, Bluetooth® interface,
an eight-speaker radio/CD player with a 5.8˝
retractable colour screen and DAB digital radio
reception, front sports seats and a three-spoke
leather sports multi-function steering wheel.
P11D prices for the A3 Saloon range start at
£22,770 for the Sport 1.4 TFSI 140PS manual.

Audi named ‘Franchise of the Year’ by AM, while Experteye rewards ‘Best Fleet Dealer Network’
New Audi Smart Display tablet opens up networking possibilities for in-car use
“Consistent investment in its product
portfolio, which now stands at 49 models, and
an unswerving focus on delivering an excellent
customer experience”, was how AM magazine
described Audi UK, which has been named
‘Franchise of the Year’ in the 2014 AM Awards.
Furthermore, the AM citation went on to
say: “...disciplined management of its brand
image and systematic execution of its sales
plans across all market channels ensured it
achieved this great result without overheating
any individual model segment”.
Audi Regional Network Development
Manager, Stuart Clarkson (above, centre),
collected the trophy on behalf of Audi UK from
AM Awards event host, Sophie Raworth, and
Rupert Keane of award sponsors, the RAC.
Top award for Audi from Experteye
Meanwhile, Audi UK also took the award for
‘Best Fleet Dealer Network (Sales) 2014’
from Experteye, the contract hire and leasing
industry research specialist.
A new portable tablet designed by Audi could
open up a wealth of new possibilities for
networking between the car and the internet.
The Audi Smart Display, shown in prototype
form at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las
Vegas, combines the latest consumer electronics
technology with the robustness and reliability of
a component designed for automotive use.
With a 10.2˝ full-HD display encased in
brushed aluminium, the portable tablet can
facilitate access to, and operation of, the car’s
infotainment system, but its capabilities extend
far beyond this.
Through a secure and stable Wireless Local
Area Network (WLAN) interface, and via the
familiar Android operating system, the Smart
Display can connect with the car and enrich
it with the state-of-the-art computing and
graphics power of its Nvidia Tegra 40 processor.
Passengers in the front or rear seats can use
the touchscreen to enjoy access to the internet
and control the radio, media and navigation
systems via the Audi connect system.
The award is based on feedback drawn
from Touchpoint, Experteye’s driver
satisfaction survey, in which 6,000 drivers of
leased vehicles nominated Audi for providing
the best service to fleet drivers in the ordering
and delivery of vehicles during 2013.
The survey requests driver feedback after
key events including vehicle delivery, servicing,
tyre replacement, windscreen and glass repair/
replacement, accident follow-up and vehicle
breakdown.
Rick Yarrow, managing director at
Experteye, said: “I’m delighted to present this
award to Audi, a tough category to win because
it is based purely on direct driver feedback
taken immediately after delivery of their new
vehicle when the service experience is fresh
in their minds.”
The Smart Display tablet can access more
than 950,000 apps, plus movies, music, audio
books and eBooks through Google Play, the
Android app store, and it can also receive video
from the car’s MMI navigation plus system.
The Smart Display plays through the Audi
sound system, while headphones can also
be connected via Bluetooth® or a standard
headphone jack. The Smart Display also
supports NFC (near field communication)
technology, enabling it to connect to Bluetooth®
headphones and mobile devices in general.
Audi contests this year’s World Endurance
Championship, and especially the Le Mans 24hrs
epic on 14-15 June, with a new challenge for the
R18 e-tron quattro race car (pictured above), as
both key competitor manufacturers – Toyota and
Porsche – adopt four-wheel drive for their LMP1
prototype contenders.
The move follows the trend started by Audi
in 2012, when it won Le Mans and the World
Endurance Championship outright with the first
R18 e-tron quattro.
Up to now, the use of four-wheel drive has
been permitted only above 120km/h (75mph).
For 2014, this speed-related rule is withdrawn,
and four driven wheels promise to deliver
significant traction advantages, particularly
at low speeds, for instance when the driver
accelerates on exiting a tight corner.
The 2014 R18 e-tron quattro will make its
race debut at the first round of the 2014 World
Endurance Championship at the Silverstone Six
Hours race on April 20. Find out more by visiting

S3 tops award-winning A3 Cabriolet range
Silverstone debut for 2014 R18 e-tron quattro
The new Audi A3 Cabriolet has already been
named What Car? magazine’s ‘Best open-top
car 2014’. Now, the first-ever S3 Cabriolet is set
to join the range, with first deliveries expected
to commence from July.
Immediately recognisable by its stylish 19˝
‘5-twin-spoke star’ design anthracite partly
polished alloy wheels, distinctive edged sill
trim and aluminium-look windscreen frame
and door mirror housings, the S3 Cabriolet also
comes with Xenon plus headlights with LED tail
lights. A subtle bootlid spoiler complements
the redesigned front and rear bumpers, and,
as with all Audi ‘S’ models, four tailpipes add a
purposeful touch at the rear.
Power comes from the 2.0 TFSI 300PS
engine as fitted to the S3 Hatch, Sportback and
Saloon, with quattro all-wheel-drive and a six-
speed S tronic transmission as standard.
Combined fuel consumption of 39.8mpg
and CO2 emissions of 165g/km belie the S3
Cabriolet's 0-62mph time of just 5.4secs and
top speed of 155mph, where conditions permit.
Infrastructure boost for electric recharging
The government has committed an extra
£9 million to boost the vehicle charging
infrastructure in the UK.
The scheme, called Go Ultra Low, promises
to open up the appeal of both plug-in hybrids,
such as the new Audi A3 Sportback e-tron (see
page 12), and pure electric cars.
In particular, £5.8 million has been
earmarked to increase the number of rapid
charging points, which can recharge a pure
electric vehicle to 80% capacity in 30 minutes.
There are currently more electric charging
points in London than there are filling stations,
according to the Department for Transport.
Speaking at the launch of the scheme,
Deputy Prime Minister, Nick Clegg (above), said:
“This campaign is about opening people’s eyes
to the advantages of ultra low emission vehicles.
Government grants already knock thousands
of pounds off the price tag, which is great news
for the consumer, and means the UK is well-
positioned to take the lead on the development
of these advanced technologies.”
Budget 2014 in brief Benefit-in-Kind tax //
BIK tax bands for 2014/15 to 2017/18 are shown in the table (below). The current BIK tax rate of 5% (8% for diesels) for cars with CO2 emissions of 1-75g/km changes in April 2015, when it will apply to cars with CO2 emissions of 0-50g/km. Cars with CO2 emissions of 51-75g/km will be charged at 9% (12% for diesels). In April 2016, the 3% charge for diesel cars is removed but the lowest tax rate rises to 7% for cars with CO2 emissions of 0-50g/km, and 11% for cars with CO2 emissions of 51-75g/km.
Vehicle Excise Duty //
Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) rates rose in line with the Retail Price Index in 2014/15. Cars with CO2 emissions of 130g/km are exempt from the first-year rate, and cars with CO2 emissions of up to 100g/km are exempt from VED entirely.
Class 1A NIC and fuel allowances //Class 1A National Insurance, payable in 2014/15 by employers on benefits including company cars and ‘free’ fuel provided for private use, remain as for 2013/14 at 13.8% of taxable value. The car fuel benefit charge, for calculating ‘free’ fuel for private use in a company car, rises from £21,100 to £21,700 on 1 April 2014.

What is Audi ultra?Audi ultra uses the most advanced and efficient technology available to deliver the lowest CO2 emissions and best fuel economy in each model range.
Audi ultra means exceptionally competitive cost-of-ownership figures, reduced Benefit-in-Kind tax and fuel bills, and reflects Audi’s commitment to sustainability.
Initially available in the A4 Saloon and Avant, A5 Coupé and A6 Saloon and Avant ranges, with more models to come, Audi ultra offers efficiency without compromise.
Here we look at the technology and benefits of Audi ultra in the core Audi fleet range and see how they compare with key competitors.
With no price increase over the outgoing 2.0 TDI
177PS predecessors, the A6 Saloon and Avant
spearhead the introduction of Audi ultra technology.
With maximum power increased to 190PS, CO2
emissions as low as 114g/km and combined fuel
consumption of up to 64.2mpg, the new A6 ultra
offers exceptional cost-effectiveness, reduced
BIK tax liabilities for company car drivers and no
restriction on standard or optional equipment
availability.
CO2 from 114g/km offers major BIK tax savings
The new Audi A6 ultra models are powered by a
highly efficient EU6 emission-standard four-cylinder
2.0 TDI 190PS engine, and are available initially
with a seven-speed S tronic transmission.
Six-speed manual transmission models will join
the range later in 2014.

Efficiency without the compromise
The new Audi A4 ultraAs with the new A5 Coupé ultra, the new A4 ultra
embraces Audi’s latest and most efficient design
and engineering technology to return the lowest CO2
emissions and best fuel consumption in the A4 range.
Powered by the same highly efficient EU6-standard
2.0 TDI 163PS engine with six-speed manual gearbox as
the A5 Coupé ultra, performance is brisk with the Saloon
achieving 0-62mph in just 8.3secs (Avant 8.6secs).
Yet the A4 Saloon 2.0 TDI ultra returns CO2
emissions of just 109g/km (Avant 114g/km) with
combined fuel consumption of up to an impressive
67.3mpg (Avant 64.2mpg).
The new Audi A5 Coupé ultraOutstanding efficiency blended with a truly dynamic
drive give the new Audi A5 Coupé 2.0 TDI ultra SE
compelling ownership appeal.
Peak power of an impressive 163PS belies the
A5 Coupé ultra’s CO2 emissions of just 109g/km.
Yet, it enables BIK tax in the 17% band in 2014/15,
equating to monthly liability for a 20% tax payer
from just £88, or £176 a month for a 40% tax payer,
applicable from 1 April 2014.
Meanwhile, combined fuel consumption of up
to 67.3mpg helps to keep you away from the pumps.
Advanced drivetrain technology
The new A5 Coupé ultra’s impressive efficiency is
achieved thanks to a highly advanced EU6 emission-
standard engine using AdBlue® technology.
The ultra-low emission system uses a DeNOx
catalyst, diesel particulate filter and injection of
AdBlue®, a biodegradable urea and water-based
additive that processes exhaust gases to remove
harmful NOx emissions.
Sleek looks, dynamic performance
The new A5 Coupé ultra blends its svelte and sporty
two-door styling with a large boot and comfortable
space for two adults in the rear.
Its smooth-shifting six-speed manual transmission
helps achieve a spirited 0-62mph time of 8.3secs and a
140mph top speed (where conditions permit).
Comprehensively equipped
The new A5 Coupé ultra SE comes with luxurious
specification to match its sporting character.
Standard equipment includes 17˝ ‘5-arm’ design
alloy wheels, a ten-speaker Audi Concert CD/radio with
MP3 compatibility and DAB digital radio reception,
Bluetooth® interface, deluxe 3-zone climate control,
‘Milano’ leather upholstery, cruise control, light and rain
sensors and rear acoustic parking as standard, while
split-folding rear seats allow full use to be made of the
Coupé’s versatile boot space.
Refreshingly low BIK tax liabilities start from just
£80 a month for a 20% tax payer in 2014/15, or £160
a month for a 40% tax payer driving a new A4 Saloon
2.0 TDI ultra SE.
A4 ultra: a new addition to the range
The new A4 Saloon and Avant ultra models add to the
existing 2.0 TDIe 136PS, 2.0 TDI 150PS and 2.0 TDI
177PS derivatives in the A4 range.
Comprehensively equipped
In SE trim, the new A4 ultra includes 17˝ ‘5-spoke’
design alloy wheels, 3-zone climate control with digital
display, rear acoustic parking system, light and rain
sensors, an Audi Concert radio/CD system with MP3
compatibility and 6.5˝ colour display, 10 speakers and
DAB digital radio reception, Bluetooth® interface,
colour driver’s information system, cruise control and
power-operated tailgate (Avant models only).
SE Technik adds £4,025 of value for just £1,000 RRP
For an upgrade premium of just £1,000 RRP over SE,
the SE Technik trim level adds customer value of no
less than £4,025 RRP.
A top-of-the-range HDD-based satellite navigation
system, Milano leather upholstery, Audi Music
Interface (AMI), Audi parking system plus and metallic
paint all come as standard on the SE Technik.
Importantly, however, all that extra equipment and
value raises monthly BIK tax liability by just £3 for a
20% tax payer, or £6 a month at 40%.

The new Audi A3 Sportback e-tron: comparisons
Offering genuine everyday usability with outstanding
performance, the new Audi A3 Sportback e-tron plug-in
hybrid blends highly advanced drivetrain technologies
with the design flair of the Audi A3 Sportback.
An all-encompassing e-mobility solution
The A3 Sportback e-tron addresses environmental, fuel
consumption and cost of ownership issues to provide a
no-compromise e-mobility solution.
Combining a powerful 1.4 TFSI petrol engine with an
electric motor, the Audi A3 Sportback e-tron has a total
power output of 204PS, with peak torque of 350Nm,
making it one of the most powerful A3 models ever
produced.
As such, it can be the only car you will ever need, with
space for five plus luggage, performance that betters a
conventional Audi A3 Sportback 2.0 TDI and the ability
to cover over 500 miles with no ‘range anxiety’ issues.
Exceptional performance and efficiency
Such outputs enable the A3 Sportback e-tron to
accelerate from 0-62mph in just 7.6secs and continue to
a 137mph top speed, or 81mph in pure electric mode.
Yet fuel consumption of up to 188mpg1 and CO2
emissions as low as 35g/km1 (NEDC figures2) make it the
most efficient model in the Audi range.

Government acquisition incentives
Government support in the form of the Plug-in Car Grant
is available to reduce the higher initial cost of an electric
car or plug-in hybrid.
The grant provides a subsidy of 25% (up to £5,000)
towards the price of a new electric car or plug-in hybrid
with CO2 emissions of 75g/km or less.
Extra funding for ‘Plugged-in Places’
The government has committed an extra £9 million to
boost the funding of the Plugged-in Places programme
in the UK, which supports the nationwide installation of
electric vehicle chargepoints. For further details see the
news item on page 6 of this issue of Progress.

The Audi A3 Sportback e-tron’s advanced drivetrain comprises a 1.4 TFSI petrol engine and an electric motor to produce 204PS
For details of charging locations nationwide, see
www.gov.uk/government/publications/plugged-in-places
Charging points are also being installed by some
councils across the UK and by private sector providers.
By the end of March 2013, over 4,000 charge-points
had been provided through the eight Plugged-in Places
projects, with about 65% of chargepoints publicly
accessible.
Using data from chargepoint manufacturers, it is
estimated that non Plugged-in Places organisations may
have also installed about 5,000 chargepoints nationwide.

New S line Style and Sport Editions enhance Q7
S line plus, now for Q3
Q5 range the broadest ever
Two tempting new models have joined the Audi Q7 range, both based on the S line plus trim
and available with the 3.0 TDI 245PS or 4.2 TDI 340PS engines.
The S line Style Edition (left) is immediately identified by its 21˝ ‘five-arm rotor’ alloy
wheels in matt titanium finish and upgraded off-road styling pack, comprising a robust
underbody guard in stainless steel finish, chrome door handle inserts, extended wheelarches
and front and rear bumpers in bodycolour for just £1,500 RRP over S line plus.
For a premium of £3,000 RRP over S line plus, S line Sport Edition models (above) add
a defined sporting edge with 21˝ ‘five-segment-spoke’ alloy wheels and the exterior sports
styling package with front lower bumper spoilers, stainless steel underbody protection, large
side air intakes, extended wheelarches and dual oval tailpipes integrated in the rear bumper.
Building on the sporting appeal of the
S line trim, the Q3 S line plus (above) is
now available on all quattro models,
creating a new range-topper with extra
equipment worth over £3,000 RRP for a
premium of just £2,350 RRP over S line.
The S line plus trim level adds 19˝
‘five-segment-spoke’ alloy wheels, black
perforated Alcantara®/leather upholstery,
SD card-based satellite navigation, privacy
glass, auto-dimming rear-view mirror, Audi
parking system plus, cruise control and
metallic paint as standard.
Meanwhile, a new 1.4 TFSI 150PS engine
lowers the entry point to the Q3 range
to just £23,870 OTR for the 1.4 TFSI SE
offering an even more enticing proposition.
Available in SE and S line trims, the
front-wheel drive 1.4 TFSI models give
fleet and user-chooser customers a fine
opportunity at prices that start £1,725 OTR
lower than previously.
With an engine range starting with a 2.0 TDI 150PS unit offering
CO2 emissions from 154g/km to the mighty 313PS 3.0 BiTDI, the
Audi Q5 has established enduring appeal.
BIK tax liabilities start from just £136 a month for a 20% tax
payer in 2014/15, and with quattro as standard the Q5 offers true
go-anywhere capability and extra security in slippery conditions.
In common with all models in the Audi Q range, the Q5 is
available with the top of the range S line plus specification, as well
as SE and S line trims, offering a derivative to suit all needs.
S line plus adds 20˝ ‘5-segment-spoke’ design alloy wheels,
HDD-based satellite navigation, Audi Music Interface (AMI), a
power operated tailgate, Audi parking system plus, privacy glass
and metallic paint as standard to S line trim.

Premium: it’s an often-used term in the
fleet and leasing industry. One that should
be used to distinguish superior design,
technology, quality and – increasingly – the
entire ownership experience.
Yet it’s a description that often describes
a car’s upmarket features or a top-end
pricing strategy in the mainstream sector,
where ‘premium’ also carries with it a higher
price than might be usual.
So while emulating the typical features
of a premium brand, such as improved build
methods, higher quality materials and hi-
tech equipment, might be possible, it is far
more difficult to replicate all the factors
involved in the appeal of
a premium model.
For example, residual values play a key
role in establishing a car’s whole-life costs.
For traditional premium brands, residual
values are inherently stronger, helping
to ensure lower cost of ownership and its
desirability to subsequent owners.
CAP Consulting and brand positioning
Now, leading industry analysts are sounding
a note of caution for those with ambitions to
reposition their brands, or certain models, in
the premium sector.
As more manufacturers than ever plan
to establish a premium presence in the UK
car market, independent automotive expert
CAP Consulting warns that the ownership
experience is as important as the quality
of the cars they launch. Fast and efficient
problem-solving for customers is the key to
building success.
CAP Consulting Specialist, Matthew
Freeman (pictured right), says customers for
emerging brands are always taking a risk,
and argues that simply emulating existing
premium brands is insufficient to guarantee
success in the sector for new entrants.
“Luxurious dealerships, memorable
commercials and clever product placement
all have their part to play in placing a brand,
but the benefit they can deliver, at best, is
only parity with existing premium brands,”
says Freeman.
“The customer’s ownership experience
when, inevitably, problems arise is what
sets genuine premium brands apart from
those which merely launch higher quality,
more expensive, products. Going ‘above and
beyond’ the norm is vital to maintaining
competitive advantage.”

Bain & Company reveals that a customer
is four times more likely to defect to a
competitor if a problem is service-related
rather than price or product-based.
It’s one of the reasons why recognition
as the provider of an exceptional customer
experience wins the day, and why infra-
structure plays such an important part in
gaining customer loyalty.
Leading industry publication Automotive
Management (AM) named Audi ‘Franchise of
the Year’ in its 2014 AM Awards.
And the influential Fleet News FN50
annual reliability survey gauged the opinion
of over 600,000 company car drivers
from the UK’s top 50 leasing companies
in 2013 to name Audi the ‘Most Reliable
Manufacturer ’.
Furthermore, leading leasing industry
benchmarking and research specialist
ExpertEye named Audi ‘Best Fleet Dealer
Network (Sales)’ for providing the best
service to fleet drivers in the ordering and
delivery of vehicles. The data was drawn from
a survey of 6,000 drivers of leased vehicles
in 2013.
Such awards point to Audi’s commitment
to a premium customer experience. Through
the Audi Centre network, bespoke services
such as Audi Exclusive, which enables
a customer to achieve the ultimate in
personalisation, are as important to the
overall brand experience as AudiCam, which
allows a customer to view at first hand his or
her car undergoing servicing or repairs.
For Audi, premium is the delivery of a
customer experience that’s best in class,
accompanied by an invitation not simply to
participate in the brand but to become part
of a brand community.
