Audi Cross Coupe quattro concept
Posted on Thursday 19 April 2007
Audi is determined to launch 15 new models by the end of the decade with focus centering on the crossover-utility market, which is seen by Audi exec Wolfgang Hoffmann as “a segment that holds a lot of potential for growth.” We’ve already seen the release of the new A5 coupe and now Audi has given us a preview of its next model with the unveiling of the Cross Coupe quattro concept that will star at the upcoming Shanghai Motor Show.
Basically the forerunner to the all-new Q5 compact SUV, the four-seater concept car sports huge 20in wheels, a fabric folding roof and a transversely positioned four-cylinder TDI engine under the hood. The 2.0L motor features common-rail fuel injection with piezo technology, and outputs 204bhp and 400Nm of torque. Debuting in the new Cross Coupe is a single component lighting system that employs LED technology for both headlights and cornering lights. Other technologies incorporated into the concept include a Bluetec filtering system, Haldex AWD, an S-tronic dual-clutch gearbox and ceramic brake discs.
Audi’s future model range, including the upcoming Q5, will feature FSI direct-injection gasoline engines as well as safety features such as lane-departure technology and its brake-disc dry system. Other plans including making its premium Bang & Olufsen sound systems available on its entire lineup as well as introducing the new LED headlights.

LOL, this thing looks very awkward from the side. I think the rear window has to much of a rake. It looks like a tall hatchback.
Once again, like all trucks/SUV's after awhile, they all start looking the same.
