New Engine
The Allroad Concept was the first (and only) Audi vehicle
shown in North America to have an eight-cylinder
Turbo Direct Injection
engine. (The flagship
A8 sedan is offered elsewhere with a 4.2 litre
Turbo Direct Injection V8
engine) The engine features
common rail
technology and piezoelectric inline injectors. The vehicle's
drivetrain exceeds
European
EU4
emission standards.
New Technologies
The Allroad Concept showcases several of Volkswagen AG's new
technologies, including Audi road vision, Audi lane
assist, and Audi side assist. Road vision, for
example, uses
electromagnetic energy from the
light-emitting diode headlights to detect the nature of the
road. The road reflects the energy toward sensors behind the
windshield. After processing, the results are presented to the
driver, as well as adaptations in some of the car's other
systems (such as the
braking system).
In Audi lane assist, the
steering wheel
vibrates when the car is in the process of exiting a lane
when moving at a high
velocity. The purpose is to alert a driver who is
unintentionally exiting a lane because of lack of attention or
fatigue. Lane assist is deactivated automatically at speeds
below 60
km/h, on narrow or winding roads, when passing a
construction site, and on roads without lane markings. It
can also be deactivated manually.
