Audi shines bright in stunning set of photographs
By Jamie White – Head of Communications
To celebrate the UK’s shortest day, Audi fittingly plunged some of the luminaries from its range into near-darkness to create a unique set of photographs.
The four excerpts from the 49 model-strong Audi line-up are shown in a new light with the help of a photographic technique known as ‘light painting’, in which exposures are made by moving a hand-held light source or camera to selectively illuminate parts of the car or to create stunning light trails around it.
Audi models are particularly well equipped for the darkest weeks of the year as they are either fitted as standard, or available with the option of high intensity xenon gas discharge headlamps or new, even more penetrating LED headlights, depending on model. Both light types are also flanked by signature LED daytime running lamps which further enhance safety.
To help drivers contend with the potentially hazardous road conditions which can accompany shorter days, Audi also offers over 140 model options equipped with quattro all-wheel-drive for added protection against the elements.
The shortest day, with just under eight hours of daylight, brings sunrise at 8.04am and sunset at 3.53pm making December and January the most challenging months for UK drivers.
The much-loved Audi RS range is represented in the fast fading light photo opportunity by the supremely powerful RS 5 Cabriolet, which can provide year-round top-down thrills courtesy of its potent 4.2-litre, 450PS V8 harnessed by quattro all-wheel drive.
Capable of 0-62mph in 4.9 seconds, and an electronically limited 155 mph top speed which can be raised on request to 174mph, the most extreme Audi soft-top this side of the R8 Spyder is priced from £68,985 OTR.
