Audi A3 gets more powerful 2.0 litre TDI & LED lights

The Audi A3 (pictured) gets a new 181bhp TDI and LED headlights It still seems astonishing that car makers can match really quite powerful performance with almost parsimonious fuel consumption, but modern turbo diesels and high pressure fuel injection are delivering seemingly silly combinations of performance and economy.

But first we’ll have to see the Audi S1 quattro.

The McLaren P1 made its debut at the Paris motor show in September, and has been the subject of many analyses ever since.
