Audi is under increasing pressure from an array of competition including Mercedes-Benz with critics suggesting the company is way too far behind the electric vehicle curve. The company has today announced the loss of Stefan Knirsch, the company’s engine development chief, a move shrouded in mystery.

It is believed he requested to leave the company although no reason was given. Is Audi losing pace with the electric vehicle revolution?
