Interview de Victor Zvunka avant Nîmes-Istres
Audi revealed its luxurious Aicon concept car at the IAA 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show on Wednesday. The futuristic Aicon concept has no steering wheel or pedals, instead of driving autonomously while the driver sits back and relaxes on one of the interior swivel chairs. Audi's Aicon concept is a fully electric vehicle which can travel up to 500 miles on a single charge. The vehicle uses advanced artificial intelligence to navigate while also getting information from the driver using eye tracking and gesture controls.

According to the managing director of Audi Electronics, the Apple and Android "connected car" solutions are not for you. While speaking with Mashable Peter Steiner clarified that the two network systems are limited by their reliance on Google Maps. Steiner added that built-in navigation and cloud mapping technologies for in-dash electronics can't be replaced Google. Specifically, Audi, BMW and Diamler teamed up to buy Nokia's HERE mapping services for exactly this purpose. And as far as those car brands are concerned, their system is far more accurate, up-to-date and robust than anything Apple or Google offer.
