The new operating philosophy

Intuitive, intelligent and innovative – and that was our ’old’ MMI system.

The new MMI touch, which is standard across the A8 range, gives drivers a new and unique ways of operating the MMI navigation system, without the need to divert their eyes from the road ahead.  By integrating a touchpad into the centre console drivers can simply write characters to enter addresses, phone numbers or even choose which album to play.  The MMI Touch can recognise over a million characters, including Japanese, Chinese, Cyrillic and Korean to name but a few.

Of course the system can still be controlled by voice, however in the spirit of progress through technology town and street names can now be spoken in a single command.
