I found Audi name ironic - Audi A5 Black Edition aka you see only this from behind:

On the other hand as much as diesels are bashed here is the practical reason why Lexus already lost the battle before even starting:

Price:     £45,800  > £41,755
Power/torque:     220bhp* (in practice ~175)/N/A  >   187bhp/400Nm
0-60mph:    8.2 seconds  >  7.4 seconds
Top speed:    118mph   > 150mph
CO2/tax:     114g/km/£440  >  118g/km/£450

Reality is that as much as goverment barks, they only care about VED income and give no **** about the pollution, then blames motorists... £10 difference for road tax between "dirty" diesel and hybrid - you serious?

So not only Audi is £4000 cheaper, more powerful, faster but as well it costs same to tax.
