Audi e-Tron Concept 2018
https://www.netcarshow.com/audi/2018-e-tron_concept/
Still a concept, though it looks like everything bar the side mirrors is production ready; And well, it looks like every other Audi SUV.

It is quite nice. It still don't get why they can't hide the rear wiper under the rear spoiler like Range Rover.

I read somewhere that the production version will also have the cameras instead of classic side mirrors, so it probably IS the production version.
I like it, definitely much better than the Q7. I still don't know how this will fit between a Q6 and Q6 or if it is just an E-Tron version of one of these two.

They should then probably redesign it for everything from the Up! too. Having it hidden under the rear spoiler (top of window) is better from an esthetic view, but also from a practical view: it is less prone to damage as hidden, and no rubbish (dust/sand) remains, especially when used rarely, that then damages the wiper scratches to window.

I don't think so ;)
it seems that it IS the production car (incl. normal mirrors) but for cool effect, on the Geneva stand it will receive cameras (that look just like someone broke down your mirror); After all, IMO - a t least in Europe - mirrors are still mandatory...

Hm, strange. I am absolutely sure they explicitly wrote it somewhere.

even if they did, it still requires them to be legal, so perhaps that didn't happen and they backed off of it.

So where does this slot in term of size and prizing in their suv lineup? above Q5 and below Q7? or Q7 territory?
As for that wiper, seems like it's also used on the Q7, Q8, maybe Q5? Def bentayga, and probably also the new Touareg.

It also wipes more of the useful part of the rear glass instead of the part blocked by headrests anyway. What I don’t get is why we still dont have rain sensing rear wipers.
