The Ingolstadt firm has unveiled some dark but suggestive first images of the Audi Grand Sphere concept. One of the three living room prototypes that the electric production models derived from the advanced Artemis project will advance.
The German firm revealed a few weeks ago that it is preparing three attractive and advanced concepts whose sole purpose is to serve as a technological showcase of the Artemis project. The new range of electric models that the Volkswagen Group is developing for the upper part of its catalog and that will result in various battery-powered vehicles for several of the corporation’s premium firms.
At that time, the company confirmed the development of three saloon prototypes and their names, Audi Grand Sphere, Audi Sky Sphere and Audi Urban Sphere. These will be presented at different events over the next few months and we already have the first images of the one that will be unveiled during the next Munich Auto Show 2021, the new Audi Grand Sphere concept.
Each of these prototypes will have specific shapes because they correspond to models of different types. In the case of the new Audi Grand Sphere concept we find ourselves Faced with a kind of oversized 4-door coupe sedan but with less sporty aspirations than the Audi Sky Sphere, which even has a classic Gran Turismo silhouette.
According to images released today by the company, The new Grand Sphere concept is a kind of sports saloon with a fiercely futuristic design and equipped with all the innovations and systems available in the technological arsenal of the German corporation. So despite the fact that the model has a small steering wheel and square shapes, the truth is that the prototype will have a level 4 autonomous driving system, in addition to all the advances in driving assistance and safety. .
From the aspect that these images show, we can assume that we are before a model that will military in the segment of the Audi A7 Sportback, although with a very different silhouette due to the new proportions given by its advanced electric powertrain. So that has a minimal front hood and fastback profile, in addition to an asymmetric cabin with two large front seats that do not appear aligned.
