Features | Audi MMI System in Audi's Virtual Cockpit

Car Buyers Guide reviews the Audi MMI and the Audi virtual cockpit. In this infotainment review, Daragh Ó Tuama looks at the entire 2017 Audi multimedia system at the Audi A5 Sportback and Coupe launch in Ireland. We look at how to use the Audi MMI system.

We've been putting he Audi Multimedia Interface on a pedestal ever since we tried it for the first time in the facelifted Audi A3. Since then we have also tried it in the Audi Q2. This infotainment system is one of the best presented connectivity systems on the market. Daragh Ó Tuama especially likes the presentation of the maps within the 12.3" display in the driver's display area. The 8" display even shows Google Street View.

Audi's infotainment system is connected with both the road and the internet. An Irish firm, Cubic Telecoms, is behind the Wi-Fi technology and internet connectivity for all forthcoming Audi models. Audi is offering free Wi-Fi for different periods depending on which models and trims that the customer opts for.

We also briefly look at the Audi MMI Connect App.
