It’s being reported that the electric Audi R8 e-tron is close to being killed off before production starts, as Audi question its viability.

Maybach reaches end of the line

Daimler AG is set to announce the closure of its Maybach ultra luxury brand this weekend, according to reports. The underperforming 57 and 62 limousines are to be killed off in 2013, following a decision from chairman Dieter Zetsche who has elected not to invest in their respective replacements for 2014. Following a concept car preview at the 1997 Tokyo motor show, Maybach was resurrected in 2002 after Daimler AG failed to purchase either Rolls-Royce or Bentley from then owners, Vickers.

The size is identical to the coupe, but the - bright chromed - windscreen mounting is slightly different to accommodate the hood.
