Microsite Teases Electric Audi R8

Audi’s US boss called the Chevrolet Volt a “car for idiots” stating that people shouldn’t buy a $40,000 vehicle when cheaper fuel-efficient vehicles (diesels and hybrids) are available in the market. Well he should have been a bit more careful to what he says especially when his company’s teasing an electric vehicle as well. It might not be a pudgy car like the Volt but an electric version, even of their esteemed R8 supercar, is still bound to be an overpriced electric as well. If you’re going to visit this microsite – ElectricityUntamed.com – you’re going to see a timer that counts down to the Frankfurt show and then a sequence of flashing text, “What’s happened to electricity? It got dumbed down and domesticated. On September 15 electricity, and all its force and power, will run free and completely untamed.” It then displays quite a lot of trivia about energy and lightning. Once the sequence closes you’ll be redirected to a page with this grainy teaser image of what appears to be the R8’s fascia. Source: Leftlane
