The Volkswagen Group was the first automaker to sign the Paris Agreement about becoming CO2<\/sub> neutral by 2050. In fact, the German automotive conglomerate has pledged to start production of the very last cars with combustion engines around 2033<\/a> and the engineers are already working on the final platform for conventional cars. However, the end of gasoline and diesel engines could come much sooner for the premium brand Audi if we were to rely on a new report.<\/p>\n

Reuters<\/em><\/a> is citing German weekly WirtschaftsWoche<\/em><\/a> saying Audi has vowed to put an end to ICE-powered cars in 10 to 15 years. In other words, all cars carrying the Four Rings could come exclusively with electric power as early as 2031 or as late as 2036. The business news magazine doesn\u2019t reveal its sources but claims Audi is in the process of establishing a clear timeframe regarding the gradual extinction of traditional engines. An official announcement in this regard will reportedly be made in the coming months.<\/p>\n
