Next-Gen Audi TT Interior Preview
In Pictures: The Automotive Technology We Saw At CES 2014

Next-Gen Audi TT Interior Preview
After many years of Audi and Nvidia talking about their work together, we'll finally see an Audi vehicle with Tegra inside when the next-gen A3 and S3 start shipping. But the platform will only employ Tegra 2! We were understandably interested to get a preview of Audi's upcoming TT, slated for 2015, sporting a quad-core Tegra 3 SoC.
The interior we were shown completely eliminates Audi's MMI in the center stack, moving all infotainment functionality to the gauge cluster, which now consists solely of an LCD display. We have to reserve judgement until we get behind the wheel and decide if the relocation improves ease of use. But our early look suggests that this gauge cluster trumps most of the LCD-based designs we've seen so far.

It wasn't listed because it came out in the 2012 model year. It was not present at any booth and there was nothing new for it to show off / announce. We also gave it a best of CES award last year.

Nice, I just ran through the Panasonic booth and ran straight to the Micro 4/3s camera section and didn't notice the Model S. Either way, statement still stands, the car is in production and has been for 2 years already, there hasn't been any update. If Tesla were to upgrade the vehicle systems to Tegra K1, then we'd report on it but otherwise the company had no real presence at CES or had anything to announce. I also see quite a few of them around the Seattle area and even more around CA.
Fixed. I'm pretty sure I typed Fresnel, but it could have been the lack of sleep and not enough caffeine following CES >_<
There's only a reduction from a Monster + Trenta Starbucks to a cup of Keurig coffee a day, which I suppose is better
