the new 2016 AUDI ‘A6 and A7 sedan’ models debut at the 2015 los angeles auto show to present the upgraded designs, technologies and more powerful engines. both cars have received altered front and rear styling, modern LED headlights and a singleframe grill to create a more dynamic stance and a greater presence on the road. the two also share similar interior design combinations that are available in flint gray, cedar brown or an arras red selection that weaves red thread into carbon fiber inserts. an added feature of the inside is the ventilated seats that give the driver and passenger the ability to select from five different massage programs to make long journeys more comfortable.

the upgraded audi connect justifies scott keogh’s words as it introduces new features and capabilities such as; enabling the modular infotainment platform to access the internet via a 4G LTE connection and an integrated wifi hotspot for up to eight devices. improved mechanical systems also show how the models offer better technologies than previously, with the slide assist and active assist providing steering input in the event of a vehicle being in the driver’s blind spot.
