Audi Concept Foretells New Q5 SUV
Automakers like to use concepts as a test bed for future styling designs, and Audi has done just that with the new Cross Cabriolet Quattro. Even though it’s a convertible, the car has a number of styling elements that should show up in Audi’s new small crossover SUV, the Q5.
According to Stefan Sielaff, head of Audi design, styling elements on the Cabriolet that are likely to appear in the Q5 are the headlights and the updated version of Audi’s single-frame grille, as well as the creased sheet metal styling on the front fenders.
Though the cabin’s all-white design is unlikely to see production, the general shape of the dashboard and center console will most likely get traditional Audi controls, like the Multi Media Interface system.
