New Audi Compact Sports Car!

We've published several articles about winter tyres and the general consensus seems to be they are a good thing as they increase grip and reduce stopping distance.

The press release screamed:

"THE NEW AUDI SHOW CAR – A COMPACT SPORTS CAR REDEFINED"

Wow! This sounded brilliant! A new compact sports car from Audi. Maybe it'd be a proper Quattro successor, or maybe even the cobwebs have been dusted off the Bluesport?

Then I saw the images.

Oh shit. Really?

According to the text it's 4.2 metres long and sits on 19 inch rims. It isn't a compact sports car but more likely a concept version of the forthcoming S1 SUV.

Damn.

The Audi Show Car will be revealed at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit in January 2014.
