Audi is already developing software-centered future-oriented concepts. The most recent example is the 'Audi Activesphere Concept.' Passengers can see the actual surrounding environment and road through a mixed reality headset. At the same time, 3D content and interactive elements appearing before their eyes can be customized individually. The operating concept called 'Audi Dimension' is expected to be applied to various fields of future cars.


Within the Volkswagen Group, Volkswagen has applied CARIAD's automotive electronic architecture to all its models. In contrast, the premium brand Audi is focusing on personal premium mobility showcased in the 'Audi Activesphere Concept.'
