In the 2015 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and in the Le Mans 24 Hours as the season’s pinnacle event, Audi will compete with a thoroughly revised R18 e-tron quattro diesel hybrid racer in the 4-megajoule class. Therefore, Audi has increased the capacity of the energy storage system as well. Diesel Hybrids Motorsport'
