I don't hate it. Looks to lean into the Concept C and Nuvolari design language. Essentially a VW ID.3 underneath, I'm surprised an Audi variant didn't come along sooner.
@evo-magazine.bsky.social · yesterdayThe Audi A2 e-tron is coming this autumn to tackle Tesla head-on, and it's already beaten the brand in one key metric.
I finished watching season two of Peacemaker last night, and I gotta say it’s a lot more fun and interesting than anything from Marvel lately. But also because, Buick Roadmaster.
