Audi showed it at CES in January 2014 and launched it in the third-generation TT, which has no central MMI monitor as a result. It then spread through the range: an option in the A3 from its 2016 facelift and standard in the A8 (D5). In the electric Q6 e-tron and A6 e-tron of 2023–2024 the driver display became an 11.9-inch panel paired with a 14.5-inch touchscreen.
