Other prototypes being tested

[Sirfun]

There is a large port in Ventura county that a lot of the car manufacturers use to import cars including prototypes. We see prototypes all the time on our roads here in Ventura. I talked to the driver of this one today. And he said it's an electric vehicle that is about 3 years from being produced. But he wouldn't tell me what brand it was. Any guesses?

Audi

That would be my guess also. The Audi beside it has a manufacturer plate too.

I say jeep, it has very similar lines as the one parked next to it.

Audi already has the Etron.

cool catch.

absolutely an audi A6

but just because it has an A6 body on this mule, does not mean that's the design of the ultimate production body.

When I talked with the driver, he said it was "not ready for prime time". Lots of issues coming up, mostly software it sounded like. He said the AC had stopped working too. Luckily it was a cloudy, not too hot day.
