Milan TDI

It is still "concept", but we are getting close !

Sorry for the german, but this is the first link I found.<ul><li><a href="http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/d/74054/d_ams_news_special_ha">http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/d/74054/d_ams_news_special_ha</a</li></ul>

I would love to know but I have no clue what the article says.

Open sky - good.
TDI - good.
The fact that it's still an allroad &amp; NOT an SUV - good good good.

Open the page from this website and all is better.

I can read German fairly well but get lost in technical stuff sometimes. This altavista site helps alot.

AUDI Allroad study: With worths AUDI presented on the cars Show in Detroit a Allroad concept study with again developed four litres of large and 286 HP strong V8-tdi. At the same time the study serves as technology carrier for the demonstration of new electronic Assistenz systems. With AUDI it means, with the study one wants to examine first the resonance at the public, it is considered however as safe that it will give a more highly set all-wheel-driven version also from the new A6 Avant. The study divides the raw body and the proportions of the current A6 Avant and corresponds with a length of 4.93 meters and width of 1.89 meters the series brother. By the higher clearance a height of 1.52 meters comes off - a plus of 60 millimeters. Optically the Allroad is characterised as a Offroad representative, without denying its relationship to the A6. The easily increased body forms its own silhouette. A Unterfahrschutz made of high-grade steel with machined corrugated members, salient bumpers and pronounced wheel housings, in which 19 tariff finds large light alloy wheels with broad tires of the dimension 255/45 a at home, do its remaining. Special attention: the chromium-plated Singleframe radiator grille and the LED main headlights. Also AUDI in LED technology implemented the rear lights and the turn signals. For a light through-flooded interior the well-known glass pushing roof system "open Sky" provides, which takes nearly the entire roof range. It consists of two glass segments, about which the front part is to be opened electrically. Apropos glass, here hid AUDI its first innovation. The windows and outside mirror are coated with hydrophoben molecules, which work water and dirt-deflecting. Soot particle filters and Sprinterqualitaeten for the drive ensures a new TDI Motorengeneration with Common Rail system and Piezo ignition, which draw 286 HP from four litres capacity with 4.000/min.. As maximum torque after European Union 4 classified TDI with soot particle filter 650 Nm between 1.600 and 3.000/min stand. to beech. In 6.4 seconds the Allroad from the conditions is to reach the 100 km/h mark - with 250 things electronics makes an end of acceleration. In things passages of speed 80 to 120 are to offense according to AUDI data only 4.9 seconds. A value, which is to be to 344 HP strong V8 on the level of the AUDI S4 with that. A Sechsstufen Tiptronic transfers the force river of the eight-cylinder on all four permanently propelled wheels. In things driving dynamics and comfort set AUDI with the Allroad Concept on the air-fitted with springs chassis, which is already used into the A6 and A8. It make possible the driver also the clearance of the model in four stages between 160 and 210 millimeters to vary. AUDI wants to show three new e-Helferlein with three new electronic Assistenzsystemen in addition, what in few years an introduction will hold into the series. The study has a system "Road vision", that the kind of roadway and condition recognize. It supplies not only information to the driver, but also data to the ESP or the longitudinal control "adaptive Cruise control". With combined laser and infrared spectrophotometry the roadway before the vehicle is scanned. Work the frequency-optimized LED of the headlights as source of light within the infrared range. The sensor technology appropriate behind the windshield seizes from the road reflected and characteristically modulated rays of light. The system should be like that able to differentiate not only between wet and dry or frozen-over course but also roadways with specific Grip as for instance concrete to recognize different kinds of bitumen or crushed stones. As the second system a trace retaining assistant is "Lane ASSIST" on board, which warns the driver when leaving the lane by steering wheel vibrations. A video camera - attached in the upper frame area of the windshield -, directed forward, seizes the lateral roadway border lines. The system is to be switched off manually, it deactivates itself however also briefly with the change of lanes, the pressing of the turn signal. During kurvigen roads or missing carriageway marking the system switches itself off completely. The electronic aid number three on board the study is the "Side ASSIST", a system, which scannt via radar detectors the area beside and behind the vehicle, in order to make the driver - additional to the picture of the rear view mirror - attentive on approximating vehicles. The sensor technology is appropriate also for the observation of the dead angle beside the vehicle.

with any luck that will exist when it's time for me to buy a new car

..that Audi is still thinking allroad?

love the interior and wheels but that grill makes it
look like it the character Jaws from Moonraker
