Audi
At Milan Design Week (April 17-26), Audi reconfirms its presence as co-producer of the INTERNI Design Re-Evolution exhibition.
In the setting of Audi House of Progress, the public can touch the present and the future according to Audi. A future that is already present today, which for the brand is closely linked to the concept of Living progress, i.e. the technological avant-garde that puts man at the centre, in an inseparable connection with the improvement of the surrounding world.
This holistic approach is reflected in the roadmap pursued by Audi with the circular economy. Re-life and re-use become central to the Brand's strategy for a sustainable mobility of the future, which involves the entire supply chain, from production sites to mass-produced products to materials .
The symbol of this anthropocentricity is the Audi skysphere concept car, placed at the center of the installation The Domino Act. Thanks to this model, the House with the four rings interprets the mobility of the future in the luxury segment, offering users an unprecedented on-board experience.
The first of a new family of four prototypes of the Sphere family, the electron roadster can count on the variable wheelbase. An avant-garde technology which, combined with Level 4 autonomous driving, allows the coexistence of two souls to guarantee passengers unexplored freedoms: as a GT and as a pure sports car. The integral steering and active predictive management of the set-up are accompanied by the maximum power of 632 HP and a new stylistic approach from the inside out, aimed primarily at defining the lines and characteristics of the space around the passengers and only a second moment the shapes of the bodywork.
The car becomes a third living space: an "experience device". A "vision" that opens up to a world of experiences capable of going well beyond simple travel thanks to key elements such as the variable layout of the passenger compartment, the extraordinary size of the passenger cell and the possibility of drawing on a hitherto unknown infotainment offer.
The present is symbolized in the Quadrilatero della Moda by the Audi Q8 e-tron and Audi SQ8 e-tron, the evolution of the Audi e-tron, the first Audi car produced with zero emissions, which was the pioneer of mobility and sustainable production in history of the Brand of the four rings.
Today, the new Audi Q8 e-tron writes an unprecedented chapter in this revolutionary story thanks to its superior efficiency, refined aerodynamics, higher charging power, increased battery capacity and increased range.
