Audi have announced in a somewhat short press release that they are to stage the world premieres of both a new concept vehicle and 'world first' (presumably) production car at January's North American International Automobile Show in Detroit.
Speculation has of course been rife following the announcement with the concept debut expected by most to be that of an R8 Targa variant. While the facelifted A3 may very well be on the cards for a production model world premiere - much like a V10-powered R8 and Q7 Hybrid - our money's split between the Q5 and Audi's 2.0-litre TT-S, which according to insider information, is destined for the US market and consequently will premiere at the Detroit Show.
There's little to do now but sit back and wait until Audi unveil their two world firsts on January 13th at 2.20pm. We'll have Detroit covered, so check back soon for the lowdown.
