Audi phone

31st October 2007

Here’s another Audi that’s also highly mobile. The firm has come up with its answer to Apple’s iPhone – so as well as making calls, the stylish gadget stores music and plays videos. It also acts as a car key, and was revealed at the Tokyo Motor Show as part of the Metroproject Quattro concept.

The unit combines a touch-sensitive screen with the latest WiFi and 3G technologies to operate the traditional functions of a car key remotely. Owners can even turn on their vehicle’s heating before leaving the house, so the interior is already warm when they get in first thing in the morning.
