An open-air Spyder version of the outlandish Audi urban concept will be at the Frankfurt Show. These radical and weight-optimised 1+1-seat technical studies are not descended from any previous Audi model – their development is based on the strict principles of lightweight construction, efficiency and reduction.
The look of the concepts, with their forward-biased lines, free- standing 21-inch wheels and protective surrounding plates incorporating strips of ‘blinking’ LED lights is dynamic and innovative, and lends a completely new impetus to the Audi design language. Characteristic features of the Spyder include its low, continuous window area and its doors that open upwards diagonally.
Inside there is sporty, low-slung seating for two mounted in a slightly staggered position and underpinned by carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) which integrates each seat undercarriage.
Two e-tron electric motors provide the propulsion and a lithium-ion battery supplies the energy.
