Electric vehicles were once known to sacrifice power to save gas. Those days are long gone with companies such as Ferrari and BMW gearing up to release high powered electric vehicles. Next up may be Audi, if recent reports are to be believed that suggest the Automaker is gearing up to debut an R8 ePerformance EV concept at this year’s Frankfurt Motor Show. Don’t get this confused, however, as the reports say this call will be powered by nothing more than high capacity batteries and an electric motor making it a fully all electric vehicle. Audi has yet to say anything of such a car so we’ll have to wait until September to see if these rumors turn out true. via WCF Related Posts Audi denies alternative energy R8 rumors Audi A5 Sportback Audi A1 Sportback Concept Leaks Out Before Paris Motor Show Audi A’KIMONO LS2.0 Concept BMW to debut sustainable sports car at Frankfurt Motor Show Tags: all electric , Audi , battery powered , electric motor , eperformance , ev , r8 Related posts Toyota’s IQ EV out by 2010?
