    I like their charge/discharge gauge. Classy and doesn't look like an industrial control system display

    I don't speak German, but I think that in the German lang video, at about 2:15-3:00 into the video, it looks as though they're explaining pulse and glide.

    Interesting. It has MGR in the rear as well. If I recall, their setup is similar to Infinity hybrid (one motor in the front with two clutches).

    So, is this the same as a Cayenne/Touareg hybrid, or is this unique to Audi ?
