10 billion euros is what German auto manufacturer Audi is expected to invest in its electric and hybrid car lines. Watch for these changes beginning in 2011 where Audi will begin marketing the e-tron range which will include the R8 and the A1 electric cars.

With a budget of 11.6 billion euros, most of the money will go toward the first phase of the company's green car development which will last until 2015. Factor in 1,200 new jobs in Germany and the goal of selling at least 1.5 million units per year, and we've got some major changes ahead.
