The general feeling on some other forums is that this is an updated A4 interior with a revised instrument display.

facelift is expected next year?

A5 possibly I guess, but I wouldn't have expected an A4 facelift for quite some time yet.

We can rule out the interiour as an A8 - it will have a retractable Nav-display as a start (like the current model).

But i'm certain that the new display between the gauges will make its debut in the A8

The A4 B8 is just 2 years on the market (09.2007) - another 2 before the facelift hits (09.2011). But sure looks very similar to the A5/A4 cockpit

After a quick check - it is the A4 B8 cockpit

**itisme** · November 3rd, 2009, 12:03

but this is different....

**roadrunner** · November 3rd, 2009, 13:21

yes, what i ment was that the cockpit structure surrounding this new display is from a current B8 A4 and NOT from an D4 A8

And i think that we will see this new display in the new D4 A8 cockpit as well

i expect the A8 to come with an all LED gauge cluster- like the 2010 Range Rover. with the nav being touch screen- like the RR.

1st would be nice

2nd: 99% no - Audi sticks to a
*) revised (e.g touch sensitive pad: you can "write" letters / numbers on it + 6 hot keys=programalbe shortcuts)
*) more compact
*) MMI wheel unit

looks very modern. already can tell - much better executed than the new 7 series and E class.

on the contrary. it's basically wearing a thong and a bra. doesn't leave much to the imagination.
