Audi Grandsphere
As the name sort of implies, this is a grand car. It’s long enough to dwarf an Audi A8 and has been described by Audi as ‘a jet for the road.’ Presumably a long wide road with some charging points along it. That’s because it’s fully electric – Quattro of course - with around 700hp and 708lb/ft and despite its size will still do 0-60mph in 4.2 seconds. That’s actually the least impressive aspect of the car. All the information is displayed straight onto the dash which is also where the steering wheel and pedals will hide at the push of a button, engaging Level 4 autonomy at the same time. This essentially turns the inside of the Grandsphere into an entertainment lounge and the dashboard transforms into a massive television or can be used as a virtual conferencing center.
