The concept car has become the largest Avantissimo surprise at Frankfurt Motor Show. And home while somewhat contradictory for a car to luxury feature - body with a glass roof. This is not the first attempt to broaden the scope of Audi in this segment: in 1989 specifically for the wife of the then head of Audi Ferdinand Piha in a single copy was established model V8 Avant c station wagon, now 4 years carefully stored in the factory museum company. Body Concept Car Avantissimo is made entirely of aluminum and mounted on the space frame technology with ASF, which were created for "aluminum" model A2 and A8. Because of this it has a high stiffness and low weight at considerable length 5060, width 1910 and height 1430 mm. Car design echoes the style of the previous concept Audi Steppenwolf («AC» № 4, 2001). Winner of Le Mans Petrol V8 Biturbo concept of 4.2 liters (430 hp) gives the "on-mountain" impressive torque - 600 Nm, almost the same as some of Kamaz truck engines. It is a V8 Biturbo, equipped with two turbochargers, Audi R8 won the 24-hour race at Le Mans. This engine allows you to instantly accelerate Avantissimo with any speed, whether it is 20 km / h or 120 km / h. The engine torque is transmitted to the wheels with the latest 6-speed automatic gearbox Tiptronic c option of manual gear-wheel drive transmission and firm Audi - Quattro, significantly increase the stability of the vehicle. 200 kilometers with a punctured tire Avantissimo is a unique design of tires - the material of which they are made, even at a penetration allows the wheel to drive almost 200 km at a speed of 80 km / h! The state of the bus driver to follow through established in each of these sensors monitoring pressure, and the special design of the tire mounting eliminates the risk that in extreme conditions it will fly off cornering from the disk. For maximum riding comfort and stability enhancement Avantissimo equipped with independent air suspension, modifying the degree of damping and stable maintenance of ground clearance - no matter how much load the car, it does not prosyadet. The suspension has three modes. When "automatic" on-board computer operates independently of its rigidity, depending on the type of coverage, speed, car, etc. and if necessary, increase or decrease the clearance, contributing to better aerodynamics. "Sport" and "Comfort" is supported by certain suspension settings. However, if you have selected is not an appropriate speed, for example, "Comfort", suspension itself will change the wrong selections. Looking for an ultra-modern twist Avantissimo is extremely unusual and optics, equipped with a system of ALS (Advanced Lighting System - advanced lighting system) (see "AC» № 45 '2001). This system controls lights and allows you to change the direction of light when cornering. Bi-Xenon lamps are set vertically in optics, but reflect and direct the light beam on the road moving reflectors. The illuminated area varies depending on vehicle speed and steering angle. Moreover, the lights work in tandem with the navigation system and controlled by onboard computer. Therefore optics "knows" that the vehicle is approaching a turn and is ready to change the direction of flux in advance that the driver can see around the corner. Massage parlor interior concept as it should be the vanguard of the "luxury", strikes a chic and luxury, and is intended only for 4 people. All seats are separated by a high central tunnel. Chairs and even the upper mounting the front seat belts are equipped with electrically. But that's not all: in the seat backs are built special massagers, allowing for long trip to relax your back muscles not only the driver but the passengers. In addition, the rear seats, as in modern aircraft have a special provision for relaxation in which the pillow move forward and back is deflected back at 190. For complete convenience, all the arms - on the doors and center console - can be adjusted for height. The seats are made in the trendy style - rear backrest straddles lacquered wood, and built-in monitors in the headrests, which can be used as a television screen or computer monitor. Another highlight of the interior - the roof, which consists of six separated by glass partitions. When the intensity of sunlight are frosted glass, and using special controllers can darken or lighten the glass above each seat. This system Varility, which allows to change the degree of haze of glasses equipped with not only the glass roof and tailgate glass, and even the top of the windshield stele. It is noteworthy, and "torpedo", which, apart from the instrument cluster display is also available navigation system. A dashboard is divided into two parts - in one integrated tachometer and coolant temperature indicator in the other - the speedometer and fuel gauge. Elektrobagazhnik luggage compartment decorated with no less chic than the interior: trimmed with genuine leather, "stitched" aluminum trim strips. To facilitate loading and unloading of the floor with the electric can be extended out to 460 mm. But if the owner accidentally bought Avantissimo polsupermarketa, the size of the trunk can be increased - with electric rear seats fold down, and on top of them runs into another half floor. But most impressively, all operations to transform the luggage carried by a remote control! Learned - not learned concept car is equipped with "protivougonkoy" the last generation with a fun system of identification of the owner. Instead of the traditional ignition Avantissimo has a special "button" start the engine - a kind of scanner that reads and identifies the fingerprint of the owner of the car. Engine zavedetsya when alarm system recognizes the "native" driver: in this case, all adjustments (seat, audio system, air conditioning, cabin, etc.) are installed in the previously defined their position and options. But the list of electronic innovation does not end there. On the concept represented by the latest development of Audi - MMI (Multi Media Interface) - a multifunctional communications system. With it you can choose and manage all entertainment and information systems Avantissimo - audio system, TV with DVD-player, mobile phone, navigation system and even use the Internet. Also, with the MMI system can change the mode air suspension Avantissimo. Buttons and switches control MMI system located on the center console front and rear passenger compartment, designed for the front passenger and driver, and for the «VIP-persons" who sit behind. Avantissimo or new A8 Avant? In conclusion begs the logical question - will the new concept of production car? Yes, Avantissimo will be launched in production output, but accurate information about the tentative dates so far, according to Audi AG importer in Ukraine "Vipos." However, I would like to publish more and no less interesting news - it is expected that the presentation of the next generation A8 will be held in autumn 2002 and it is likely that, apart from the sedan, with time and will be its universal modification - the founder of which was Avantissimo.
