The news is in the title. Presumably this will affect the Macan facelift. :o

“Official line is that sports SUV’s build slots are all taken, but WLTP tests could be an influence”

or just more lazy, sensation seeking journalism with no real basis - just a “could” or a “ maybe” to fall back on😉

So refreshing to hear a car manufacturer tell the truth. Can anyone see a yellow glow outside?

Reading between the lines

“ Audi UK has filled all the available SQ5 production slots in its 2018 model year allocation and only a limited number of cars remain in Audi centre stock, “

...... we finished building the damn things then found our latest cheat sofware is not as good as we thought.

“Customers looking to place an order can contact their local Audi centre for the latest inventory information.”

..... Customers stupid enough to buy one will be given a substantial discount, then screw you when it comes out that our car does not meet the standards.
