20 Sep 2023|266 views
Audi is aiming for the skies with its participation in the U.K. Queen's Cup Hot Air Balloon Race, happening from 30 September to 1 October 2023.
Dubbed the 'Formula One of the skies', the competition will see the Audi team going up against 19 of the U.K.'s top hot air balloon pilots. Audi will be competing in the race with an eco-balloon, which features double insulation to limit its fuel usage, reducing the need to land and refuel. This balloon will be piloted by Richard Penney.
Rival teams will also be doing their part for the environment, taking to the skies in balloons powered by certified biogas, as part of the initiatives adopted this year with the theme of the race being sustainability.
Audi will also be providing a fleet of fully-electric Audi Q8 e-tron SUVs to support the ground crews as they follow their teams during the two-day challenge.
