What's the story

Audi has announced a series of tech updates for its 2027 A6 e-tron and Q6 e-tron models. The most notable change is the return of physical controls on the steering wheel, a feature that had been missing in previous versions. The revamped steering wheel now comes with scroll wheels, inspired by the interior design of the Concept C.

Software upgrade

The updated software offers a better experience

Along with the hardware changes, Audi is also rolling out an updated software for both e-tron models. The company claims this new software gives a cleaner look with more familiar touchpoints and a more navigable experience. It promises fewer lists, better graphics, and also improved contrast between icons and backgrounds. Plus, some of the software menus will even show a 3D model of the owner's specific car in its correct paint color.
