Good video of the new Infotainment system

TBH I don't know what the infotainment looked like in the pre-FL cars, but this video gives a good view of the graphics both on the Infotainment screen and the DIP (and the HUD and matrix lights get a look-in, too).

Maybe best viewed as an appetite teaser for those waiting for a car. Especially as it's in French.

Not massively different. Makes me wonder software upgrade....

I had a play in the new TT recently. Not my cup of tea personally, but the dash and info system is lovely and a good sign for future Audi's
Apparently the dash carries over almost exactly to next R8

You'd certainly hope so as a minimum. R8 needs a much nicer dash and interior in general. Wouldn't want the TT to have more tech.

Different hardware in the FL RS6, not just software.

Can believe there been so much talk about the FL car on the forum, it just like a really nice lady sticking on a new pair of glasses.! :) I really doubt its going to make it doomsday for the old cars.

Its more like the quiet plain looking lass in the office one day coming in with a bit of makeup, hair done and a push up bra.

I still think this is more of a sideways step.... So ummm... you discover that the quite fit young lady with large rear in the office has nearly identical twin..

So the only visible difference is; front & rear light design and nav screen between speedo/tacho instead of compass.
As for not visible ones; matrix light technology, nvidia software and hardware for mmi and?

The angles in the corners of the centre grill are sharper, less of a curved corner to the grill.

Barely noticeable to be fair.
