German Audi has released the EV concept "activesphere" which was announced last year. Although it is basically an SUV-style car, it is characterized by the fact that it can be used as a pickup truck by opening the rear part of the car body.
Although it is an SUV style, its body is a coupe-style that looks like a sports car. It may be because of the huge 34-inch tires that it looks like an SUV. In terms of size, the overall length is almost the same as Audi's A7 Sportback, but the overall height and width are slightly larger than that. The left and right doors adopt a double door system that opens back and forth from the center. The suspension has a mechanism that can change the vehicle height, and the minimum ground clearance can be adjusted between 8.2 to 9.8 inches (about 20 to 25 cm).
The interior space is filled with conceptual augmented reality (AR) gimmicks, with separate seats for four, a full-length center console, an additional console on the roof, and AR glasses 4 for mixed reality systems. pcs are complete.
In autonomous driving mode, the dashboard, steering wheel, and pedals are hidden away from view, and the passenger wears AR glasses to check the numerical information necessary for the driver, as well as the infotainment and virtual assistant-related functions. Operation is possible. In addition, if the driver wants to drive the car by himself, it is also possible to pull out the stored steering wheel and meter panel and drive like before.
Since it is a concept car to the last, specific specifications and others as a car are not shown. Still, as an element that is likely to be handed over to mass-produced vehicles in the future, this EV is designed based on the PPE (Premium Platform Electric) architecture jointly developed with Porsche. Audi explains that the cruising range is about 600 km, and the 270 kW fast charging using the 800 V charging system can charge the 100 kWh battery pack from 5% to 80% in 25 minutes.
