2012 Audi A3 interior revealed
Audi has recently revealed the 2012 Audi A3 at the Consumer Electronics Show held in Las Vegas, an improved version of spy shots caught before.
The model’s interior features a dash angled in the driver’s favor, and a new MMI control panel which integrates handwriting recognition. Other highlights include circular air vents, a 7 inch pop-up infotainment system, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. An option for a Phone Box will also be available to mate any cell to the car seamlessly.
Working with Nvidia, Audi developed a new “modular infotainment platform” with a Terga 2 processor, timed at 1.2 GHz to utilize the phone, navigation and internet features via a Multi-Media eXtension board. Expect to see a 1.4 GHz upgrade later with the release of the quad-core Terga 3 processor.
No release date for the A3 has been mentioned yet, although the Geneva Motor Show is a likely option. The German automaker has noted that it will be “launced in many countries very soon.”
