Audi presents the Activesphere concept, a crossover study with electric drive and quattro capabilities. This luxury coupé transforms into a pickup and showcases an innovative operating concept using augmented reality headsets. As the fourth model in the Sphere series, the Activesphere is a four-door crossover coupé featuring a versatile body design, standing 4.98 meters long, with impressive ground clearance and large 22-inch wheels, showcasing its off-road talent. The Sportback rear can transform into an open cargo bed ("active back") with just a touch of a button, perfect for carrying recreational equipment like e-bikes or water and winter sports gear.

Equipped with an electric drive and quick-charging technology from Audi's PPE modular system, the Activesphere offers a range of over 600 km and extremely fast charging times with 800-volt technology. The autonomous chauffeuring feature on suitable terrain provides a new level of freedom for drivers and passengers. The innovative operating concept, Audi Dimensions, integrates the physical and virtual worlds (mixed reality) by displaying digital content in real time within the occupants' field of vision. High-tech headsets reveal the real environment and route while simultaneously displaying 3D content and interactive elements, individually configurable for drivers and passengers.

The Audi Activesphere concept is a perfect all-rounder for a future-oriented generation of Audi customers who value individual mobility, sustainability, brand aesthetics, and dynamism, along with cutting-edge technology. As a captivating vision, the Audi Activesphere transcends the boundaries between these dimensions.
