Audi AG has added Washington, D.C., to its vehicle-to-infrastructure network in the U.S. that can interact with the company’s Traffic Light Information system.
The system will be connected with 600 intersections in D.C. via a vehicle’s 4G LTE cellular connection. In specially equipped vehicles, a dashboard display will count down the seconds until a traffic light changes.
Las Vegas was the first city to be integrated into the system. The service also is available in Audi vehicles in Dallas, Denver, Houston, Portland and Arcadia and Palo Alto, Calif.

Mustang Changes for 2018
On Tuesday Ford unveiled—using the social media channels of actor Dwayne Johnson (this has got to unnerve some of the auto buff book editors)—the 2018 Mustang, which has undergone some modifications: under the hood (the 3.7-liter V6 is giving way to a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four, and a 10-speed automatic is available), on the dash (a 12-inch, all-digital LCD screen is available for the dashboard), at the tires (12 wheel choices), on the chassis (MagneRide damper technology is being offered with the Mustang Performance Package), and on the exterior (three new paint colors). And while on the subject of the exterior, there are some notable changes—a lower, remodeled hood, repositioned hood vents, new upper and lower front grilles, LED front lights, revised LED taillamps, new rear bumper and fascia.
