Hi there, it's the last day of September. Would you believe this month flew by so fast? It's already October tomorrow -- 3 months left til 2023. I can't wait to go to Christmas markets, see the dazzling street decors in London, drink warm mulled wine, and have dinner with friends.
BUT I have to get past my depression first lol yup, I have 3 bags of laundered clothes that I haven't folded yet and have been waiting to be touched for a couple of weeks now and some used & unused clothes that I've been meaning to donate to free up some space in my small room.
Oh, I'm currently on a 13-day annual leave and the only tasks I've managed to do successfully are to sleep, overthink, and cry. I wasn't even in the slightest mood to do extra shifts for extra money to pay for my already monstrous debts.
Btw, my namchin and I lost an offer on this newly built and sought-after flat which is just a walking-distance away from work. Apart from the monthly rent itself, we realized we couldn't afford the overall bills to boot. I cried for 2 days as I wanted to move to a bigger, better, and private space this time. The thought that I can't have my own fridge and kitchen space for now kinda broke me -- I guess I can't start a baking career yet lol Hopefully another unit will be up in the coming weeks. I really want to move out before Christmas.
Also, I just mailed my DVLA application yesterday and now waiting for the decision. Yahoo! I just want to have a provisional license already even though I'm not going to book driving lessons yet anytime soon. I believe the thought of possessing a license will inspire me to start in the future. If I have extra extra extra million pounds, an Audi Q4 e-tron or Mercedes-Benz GLE 400D 4MATIC sounds nice for a Christmas present.
So, that's my September y'all.

The Story Behind The 2021 Audi E-Tron Electric Performance Car
New Post has been published on https://perfectirishgifts.com/the-story-behind-the-2021-audi-e-tron-electric-performance-car/
The Story Behind The 2021 Audi E-Tron Electric Performance Car
Audi design director Marc Lichte sketching the e-tron GT
The e-tron GT is Audi’s first fully battery-electric gran turismo. The polished design of this pinnacle performance car veils an awful lot of cutting-edge technology, namely expertise gained from sister brand Porsche and the electric Taycan project. The design, an evolution of the 2018 concept, is largely directed by the electric drive system beneath. The e-tron motors are mounted on the axles, while the large battery sits low in the floor space, which means, despite the car’s super-low coupé body form, the cabin space is large enough to sit four adults comfortably. Since there is no combustion engine under the hood, the front section is pushed forward, the large wheels sit at the far edges of the car and the overhangs are kept minimal for a subtle expression of electric power.
It is largely with the details where Audi wishes to make an electric statement with the e-tron cars. The marque’s signifying “Singleframe” grille features here, but modified to be relevant for an electric car that doesn’t require much engine cooling. Instead, it houses the sensors and is visually inverted to be the same color as the car but with a dark surround. The exterior is finished with advanced digital lights, while the taillights are linked by an animated light strip.
2021 Audi e-tron GT
The e-tron GT is being produced at Böllinger Höfe, a small-series production facility at the Audi’s Neckarsulm site in Germany – where the R8 is made – expanded, upgraded and converted specifically to be mainly automated. And for the final touch, the e-tron GT comes replete with its own engine note – a computer-designed sound with characteristics that can be adjusted to signify a clean drive.
I get on a video call to Ingolstadt, the home of Audi, to virtually meet up with Marc Lichte,  head of Audi design since 2014.
Nargess Banks: What is Audi’s electric car design philosophy – your approach to visualizing battery electric cars?
Marc Lichte: As you know the car industry is going through a huge transformation. Electric car companies are doing a great job, but unlike us they don’t have a long history of car making. Some of the other carmakers, on the other hand, are adding what I see as bizarre elements to say their cars are EVs. Our philosophy is exactly the opposite. The electric drive system allows us to create the most beautiful cars in our history – be it the e-tron GT or the upcoming Q4 e-tron. Our approach is to use technology to create the most attractive cars.
Sketches of the Audi e-tron GT by Marc Lichte
It’s interesting to see that you’ve retained many of the classic Audi codes, namely the unique Singleframe grille, which now has other functions and a new expression.
The Audi grille is one of the key areas to help differentiate the combustion engine and electric cars. The unique Singleframe design has given us such a strong face since it was introduced in 2004. On the GT we introduce it as an inverted design. Since with electric drive the grille is no longer used purely as an air intake, but rather a sensor rack, we have painted the internal part body color and the outside black. It is a detail that you will see in our future e-tron cars to distinguish our battery-electric family.
You say you are using design to express the evolution of the drive system.
Battery range is a huge topic with electric cars. Some car companies put bigger batteries in the car, but that adds weight. Our approach is to work on sophisticated aerodynamics, which we’re using as our design principle and is best expressed on the e-tron GT. We visualize the air curtains, and we have a huge diffuser at the back, so the GT has one of the best aerodynamics in series production cars.
Audi’s visual identity for the GT
User experience is increasingly driving design, and you’ve spoken passionately about designing cars from the inside out. How do you direct a uniquely different user journey for electric driving?
You’re absolutely right in that for the last 100 years we’ve been designing cars from the exterior in – created a package and decided if it would have two or four or six seats. This car, though, has been designed from the inside-out. It is an extreme sports car and a modern interpretation of a GT but with four doors and it is real four-seater. I am very tall and have enough head clearance in the rear. This is all thanks to the battery-electric drive and the Porsche platform it has been built on.
Can you go through the design process?
Without a combustion engine, you can have a super low bonnet and a very slim and low cabin that sits on a wide body. The battery pack is located on the floor, but rather than being on a straight line, it is placed on different height levels so at the rear passenger area it dips to have extra room for the foot area. This package, therefore, enables a real functional but attractive car with the usability of a four-seater. Only the Porsche Taycan offers this.
Audi’s design philosophy for the e-tron GT
With the idea of premium and luxury advancing to offer alternatives to the traditional codes in car design, it is nice to see the GT offered with a sustainable interior package.
We are a premium brand; our customers expect leather, but their attitude is changing. So, for the first time, we’re offering an interior with carpets and seats made of recycled plastic bottles and recycled fabrics from our cars. It looks super attractive and sophisticated too. In my opinion, it represents the new premium. And we will offer this option on all-out future e-tron cars.
This generation of Audi e-tron cars seem to maintain much of the marque’s visual language but with electric vehicle signifiers. Will we be seeing bolder expressions, possibly even a new form language, with the next group of electric cars?
Yes. Currently, I’m working on a very exciting project – that I cannot sadly discuss with you – which has a radical new approach to design. That is the future.
Talking of the future, we are going through some extraordinary times. The pandemic aside, we are navigating the anxieties and opportunities of machine learning and the information age. Is it important to offer a more “human” experience in transport as we head deep into the AI future?
The Audi e-tron GT will go on sale from May 2021
AI is an enabler for us. Going back to the project I can’t talk about right now – but will be on the market in less than four years’ time – it’s based on a technology that will allow the car to be autonomous. It changes everything. Until now, the driver simply has had to sit in the driving position. But with AI, it completely changes the possibilities of the interior. I wish I could show you what we’re working on – it’s unbelievable what can be achieved.
Can you discuss it conceptually?
Imagine, today you sit in the driving position with everything operational by touch or voice. When the car drives by itself, you can relax and move in the interior. So how do you operate the car when you’re not in a fixed position? And what about safety when you’re not in a fixed seating area with airbags? We are working on all these elements which will change the car completely. 
What is your favorite element of the e-tron GT?
The Quattro is in our DNA and we visualize it on our exterior design on the four wheels. The GT takes this expression to a new level where the muscles are so extreme – especially on the rear – a huge engineering challenge. This section took us three months to develop. It is the biggest muscle we have ever done at Audi and it looks unbelievable.
As a designer, this must have been a dream assignment.
Honestly, this car is a dream project. It has taken me twenty years as a professional designer, but it has finally happened.
