Audi's New Slew of Electric Vehicles

In the last four months Audi has released three (well, almost three) electric vehicle concepts. Audi unveiled the third e-tron at the Detroit Auto Show this week. The latest model, with a weight of 2,976 pounds, can go from 0 to 60 in 5.9 seconds. Power is delivered by four independent engines that drive each wheel, creating 204 horsepower. Audi claims a 155 mile range after an 11 hour charge.

The e-tron is expected to go on sale late in 2012, with the latest concept closer to what consumers will be seeing on the road.
