2018 Audi SQ5:
Audi presented the new Audi SQ5 at the 2017 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. The sportiest member of the Q5 model series embodies more than ever the emotional concept of the practical SUV with the latest technology. It's turbocharged, 3.0 TFSI offers powerful performance combined with further enhanced efficiency. The 3.0 TFSI: The Audi SQ5 has a 2,995 cc, V6 TFSI engine with an output of 260 kW (354 hp). The turbocharged, aluminum engine delivers a constant 500 Nm (368.8 lb-ft) of torque from 1,370 to 4,500 rpm. The sprint from zero to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) is completed in 5.4 seconds; top speed is an electronically governed 250 km/h (155.3 mph). In the NEDC, the new Audi SQ5 3.0 TFSI consumes just 8.3 liters of fuel per 100 kilometer (28.3 US mpg) - a CO2 equivalent of 189 grams per kilometer (304.2 g/mi). Compared with its predecessor, this is a reduction of 13 grams per kilometer (20.9 g/mi). New combustion process: higher efficiency: A new combustion process developed by Audi makes the 3.0 TFSI particularly efficient. It is based on the so-called "B cycle" process in combination with high-pressure injectors centrally located in the combustion chambers. With its artificially shortened compression phase, the B cycle enables an engine process with a significantly higher base compression ratio. Combined with a power stroke that, while normal, is longer relative to the compression stroke, this allows for more efficient combustion and increased engine efficiency...

2018 Volkswagen Arteon:
Six turbocharged engines: The Arteon will initially feature three turbo direct injection engines at launch: a 206 kW / 280 PS TSI (petrol) engine and two TDI (diesel) engines with 110 kW / 150 PS and 176 kW / 240 PS. Three additional engines will complete the range: the newly designed 1.5 TSI Evo (110 kW / 150 PS with cylinder deactivation) as well a TSI and a TDI engine, each with 140 kW / 190 PS. Dual clutch gearbox for all versions: All engines can be combined with an automated DSG dual clutch gearbox (except 110 kW TSI in Germany, which is only available with a manual gearbox). For the TSI, the DSG gearbox is standard on engines with an output of 140 kW and above; for the TDI it is standard on the 176 kW version. Additionally, the 280 PS TSI and 240 PS TDI also have the Volkswagen 4MOTION all-wheel drive as standard, while this is available as an option for the 140 kW TDI. All other models have front-wheel drive.Assistance systems look ahead: The Arteon's innovative driver assistance systems match its avant-garde concept. Three of its all-new technologies illustrate this. The latest generation of Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) now takes into account parameters such as speed limits, bends, roundabouts and detours, and automatically adjusts driving speed accordingly (within system limits and in accordance with country-specific regulations). Thanks to the navigation system's GPS and road data, the new dynamic cornering lights with predictive control also anticipate when a bend is approaching and illuminate it before the driver actively turns into the bend. The second generation of Emergency Assist offers more safety in a worst-case scenario: if the driver becomes incapacitated for health reasons, the system not only slows the Volkswagen Arteon down within system limits but now also steers it into the slow lane, traffic behind permitting...
