The Concept C Is the All-Electric Sports Car Kick-Starting Audi’s Design Future

wired.com Jason Barlow 2025-10-20 07:00:00

Car companies love a mission statement. With the arrival of the Concept C, Audi’s new one is crystal clear: “radical simplicity.” An all-electric two-seater with a retractable folding hard top, the Concept C is a “progressive interpretation” of the company’s legacy, says Audi—and it's not hard to see that the TT has factored pretty heavily in that.

The Default Trap: Why Anthropic's Data Policy Change Matters
