With Audi's tiny by cities of tomorrow

At the IAA in September, Audi has unveiled a mite of just 3.20 meters length. The future of car you can see that driving is so fun.

The idea of ​​the Mega City Vehicle electrifying the auto industry. Almost all manufacturers ponder why on vehicles with which one in the million-cities of tomorrow is still ahead. The BMW subsidiary Mini and Daimler-branch smart for it have already been presented in recent years, studies of electric scooters and intense struggle just to the serial implementation.


Volkswagen has unveiled a very similar vehicle in April at the Shanghai Auto Show, Nissan is thinking seriously about a car like the glider to land, and goes at Renault in the first few weeks of hybrid between a car and motorcycle in the Twizy series. So wrong, the idea of ​​a small car for the big cities could not be so, it has now apparently also detected by Audi for the IAA, and therefore advised a spectacular study: the Audi Urban Concept.
Also more consistently than the outlook for Frankfurt Advised on the BMW i3 is the futuristic midget from Ingolstadt city traffic on the pure cut: With nearly 3.20 meters, almost 80 inches shorter than an A1, only 1.70 meters wide and less than 1, 20 feet high, should the car be nearly as agile as a motorcycle. He is also a feather-light, thanks to aluminum structure and carbon body, he should not weigh 500 pounds.
This also helps in the design of the drive: The lighter the car, the smaller may be the two motors and batteries, without at the performance figures particularly major restrictions are: For the show car as the Bavarians promise so 100 km / h and a range of 50 to 60 kilometers. For a real car, of course, too little, but for a pure city car more than enough.


But the car is not only quick and clean. He also serves as sporty, sleek and dashing drawn, that he also wants young people like to make on the car, where a modern mobile phone is more important than one's own car. "Hip", "Cool" and "Trendy" why are words that are used in the design study Ingolstadt around you.
Of course, the Urban Concept only one study that illustrate ideas and would like to add momentum. . 'But she more than a finger exercise, the designer is, "it says at Bayern That sounds like concrete plans: While the A1 are still competing for his success must and the A2 as electric lightweight small car slowly takes shape, good for the Frankfurt show piece for example as a template for a A 0, which one might see in five to six years on the road.
This suggests at least to insiders that put the show car in the context of the Urban Future Summit, in which Audi explores together with city planners and architects, the future of cities: "As we speak there about a time horizon of 2020 and later, we are with the show car Frankfurt for a lot closer.
