Electric vehicle to be released by Audi Sport in 2020

Audi Sport managing director Stephan Winkelmann revealed at a launch event that, although the firm still plans to produce turbo engines in the coming years, it plans to introduce an electric sports car in 2020.

As reported by Business Insider, Audi Sport managing director Stephan Winkelmann, who is set to become the president of Bugatti in January 2018, revealed the company's plans at the launch event for the RS4 Avant, claiming that Audi Sport "will be less evolutionary and more into revolution.”

Formerly known as quattro, Audi's high-performance division was rebranded as Audi Sport in November 2016.

Winkelmann didn't reveal any details for the vehicle but indicated that Audi Sport will continue to diversify its offerings.
