Audi is presenting the latest evolution stage of its MMI operating concepts with the MMI touch response. Following the premiere in the fourth generation of the Audi A8 (2017) it is now being incorporated into other model lines. The central element is the 10.1-inch touch display in black panel technology. When not in use, the screen blends almost invisibly into the high-gloss black faceplate of the instrument panel. When starting the system, the user interface appears with its concise graphics. With a resolution of 1,540 x 720 pixels, the TFT screen provides pin-sharp images and high contrast, even when viewed from an angle. The large display is used for controlling navigation, media and vehicle functions. The driver can click, swipe, zoom and scroll on it. The menu structure including the search functions is intuitive and flat, like that of a modern smartphone.

A second display on the console of the center tunnel is used to operate the air conditioning system and convenience features. The driver can save preferred functions as favorites. The display has an 8.6-inch diagonal and a screen resolution of 1,280 x 660 pixels. Since the driver’s wrist rests on the transmission’s gear selector knob, the display can be operated very comfortably. The driver can also enter text – either via a digital keyboard (when the vehicle is stationary) or by innovative handwriting recognition which can recognize entire words in handwriting as well as letters handwritten on top of one another. Audible feedback is given for each recognized letter, so that the driver can always keep his or her eyes focused on the road.

Dashboard gauges are so 20th century. The dash of the future is a flat, high-resolution, and fully customizable. And that"s what the next Audi TT will have when it lands in showrooms later this year.

At CES Audi showed off a full-sized mockup of the TT"s new interior, and the crown jewel is a 12.3-inch LCD screen behind the steering wheel that can toggle between a traditional tachometer and speedometer and a massive map with infotainment and navigation displays flanked by small virtual gauges.

Inputs are handled through Audi"s next-generation Multi-Media Interface control knob mounted behind the stick. It has fewer buttons but gets the latest iteration of Audi"s touchpad that allows you to write characters with your finger rather than endlessly scrolling through the alphabet.

The other notable bit is the removal of the traditional climate controls in the center console. Instead, the driver and passenger can change the interior temperature by twisting a knurled metal knob in the center of the vents, complete with a TFT display showing the fan speed and air temp.Climate controls and temperature read-outs are exactly where they should be: in the vents.Photo: Audi

Debuting on the current Audi A8 that was launched in 2017, the Touch Response MMI system features two screens (three if you count the Virtual Cockpit). One screen sits above the other in the dashboard, with the top one functioning much like the system in the A1 and A3, controlling the stereo, sat-nav and vehicle settings.

The lower screen is mainly used for climate-control settings, with temperature and fan speed, plus heated-seat controls situated here. The lower screen also becomes the place where you input handwriting gestures for inputting route-guidance destinations.

Another feature of MMI Touch Response that earlier MMI systems do not have is haptic feedback. This means that when you press an icon on the screen, it vibrates in the location you have pressed, confirming your selection. Touch Select also allows you to drag and drop icons to rearrange the screen’s layout.

Yes. As discussed above, higher-end current-model Audis feature the MMI Touch Response setup, with less expensive cars getting the slightly less sophisticated system – though some may prefer the physical buttons for the climate-control system these cars feature.

If you’re looking at second-hand Audis, which version of MMI you get will depend on what model of car you’re interested in, as well as how old the car is.

The MMI system has evolved over recent years, with the previous-generation Audi A3, and early models of the current Audi Q7 featuring a screen that rises from the top of the dashboard. All current Audis have a fixed screen, though.

Model derivatives (EG the e-tron Sportback or the Audi RS3) share whichever MMI system the model on which they are based (IE the e-tron and A3) features.

Do note that if you’re browsing Audi’s range, MMI Touch is the single-screen setup, and is different from MMI Touch Response. Perhaps counterintuitively, the Audi e-tron GT features MMI Touch rather than MMI Touch Response, despite being a newer model than many of the cars with the newer system.

The Audi R8 supercar and TT sports cars do not have a central infotainment screen. Despite this, they still features the MMI system, with all functionality displayed via the 12.3-inch digital dashboard display, known by Audi as the Virtual Cockpit. The R8 and TT’s MMI interface is via a rotary dial positioned by the gearlever on the central transmission tunnel, though most functions can also be controlled via buttons and dials on the steering wheel.

No. Audi Connect is an online service that is an additional feature to the MMI system. Audi Connect is an online feature that brings music streaming, parking, weather, fuel-price and other information to the MMI screen.

Again, this will depend on the car and MMI system. In some models, holding down the radio and map button, then pressing the central MMI control dial will force a reset. There may also be an option to reset MMI through the system’s own settings. Consult you owner handbook or an authorised Audi dealer for more information.

Without wishing to sound like a broken record, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to this. You may need to create a myAudi account and download an update to a USB drive or SD card that you can then plug into the MMI system; some updates may need to be applied by dealers, while some map updates can be delivered via wireless internet using over-the-air (OTA) technology.

Yes, in short. It may not be quite as good as Mercedes’ MBUX or BMW’s iDrive, but MMI is a comprehensive and generally easy-to-use system. And while not everyone is a fan of the touchscreen-based climate-control MMI Touch Response brings, this tends to be relatively easy to get used to. The Virtual Cockpit digital driver’s display that MMI comes with is an excellent piece of kit, too.

Cars have become expensive, rolling gadgets that are full of screens, speakers, and sensors — but are they actually good gadgets?In our new series, ScreenDrive, we"ll review cars just like any other device, starting with the basics of what they’re like to use.

A giant turtle flanked the apple red Audi S3. The turtle was apropos. If I had to choose an animal to describe the evolution of screens in cars since the first one appeared in the 1986 Buick Riviera, the turtle is it. Cars, because of their long life cycles, never can quite keep up with the pace of smartphone progress. It’s hard to get excited about the latest car app, when Android Auto and Apple CarPlay run laps around their operating systems.

The turtle I reference was the subject matter of a mural, one of many street art works that line the industrial new-cool streets of Bushwick, Brooklyn, and the backdrop of choice for our second ScreenDrive photo shoot. Three of us huddled in the S3 cabin. I was in the driver’s seat; Ashley, the Circuit Breaker writer, sat shotgun; and Amelia, our staff photographer, perched in the back. What I didn’t anticipate was how the action inside of the sports sedan would catch my passengers’ attention — even when the car was at a standstill.

When the car is powered down, there’s not so much to see in the Audi S3. It’s composed of a minimal monochromatic dash, and no glossy screens are visible at rest. The design is almost post-modern analog, like this car should have a record player spinning 45s in the glove box. In place of the usual built-in home screen are two menacing air vents.But first looks are deceiving. Audi’s 2017 technology is about as gadgety as most car companies get.

I reached down to my right and pushed the ignition switch. In a dramatic whoosh the rectangular 12.3-inch TFT screen rose from the dash, beckoning me to tune in. “Ooh,” said Amelia. I noticed that Ashley intuitively reached out to touch the screen. There’s a tactile, touchy-feely element to the screens on the S3 — and that’s a good, rare thing in a modern car.

But where things got a bit more confusing was trying to understand all the tech at the driver’s fingertips, starting with what to call it. Every carmaker has a different set of vocabulary for its set of telematics and infotainment system. Audi introduced this trademark MMI (code for multimedia interface) in 2001. It’s a mouthful of a name, but up until recently it gave Audi a clear edge on some of its competitors.MMI, in essence, is the screen and its control functions. The MMI houses Audi’s infotainment display that includes radio and smartphone integration, its vehicle info center, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Audi connect system is powered by an Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core processor and equipped with 4GLTE and Wi-Fi. The S3 MMI has a touch pad, steering wheel buttons, and voice commands giving the driver (or user) several options on how to communicate with the car. Still with me?

There’s a lot going on here, and it’s an understatement that it takes a bit of due diligence to make sense of this bevy of bells and whistles. But while the suite of options might be vast, it is relatively intuitive to use them interchangeably, by pushing a button on the steering wheel or through a tap on the screen.

Behind the steering wheel is the Audi virtual cockpit, the tra-la-la optional feature new to this model,which first debuted on the 2016 Audi TT. When it was rolled out last year, there was much to-do that virtual cockpit was like having a video game system embedded in your car. While it’s not quite Rise of the Tomb Raider caliber, the graphics are good. Google Maps are bright and there are lots of nice images of the car you’re driving, lest you forget. Virtual cockpit lends Audi a high production value on its in-car experience. The virtual cockpit projects 1440 x 540 pixelsthat are refreshed 60 times per second on the screen. The MMI screen isn’t quite so vibrant at 800 x 480 pixels. The reason for this distinction is that the virtual cockpit is designed to make navigation, Google Earth, and the tachometer and speedometer images pop before your eyes, with minimal lag time to improve driver reaction. When you drive, your route unfolds in your own mini movie. You glance down, without ever turning your head. But good driving is based on the concept of looking out and ahead, and therefore, the conundrum of how to communicate information to a focused driver has not been solved. I played with the custom screen options, which include a nifty sport mode that zeros in on the tachometer and odometer to enhance the zippy aspect of the S-line cars.

This crispy clarity is also a sign of what to expect from Audi graphics in the future, when the next generation of MMI is due to debut sometime in fall, according to Audi. The virtual cockpit is standard on the TT and the R8, Audi’s supercar. But by adding Virtual Cockpit to the A4 and the sportier S3 package options, Audi’s making hi-brow luxury car tech available to the entry-level luxe buyer. The S3 has an MSRP of $42,900. It’s not quite your everyday Toyota Camry, but it’s in a more accessible range than the $160,000 Audi R8. On the S3, the virtual cockpit is sold in the $3,000 tech package along with a smartphone interface and the MMI touch features, and safety sensors like side assist, and rear cross traffic alert.

Audi, like Mercedes-Benz and others, uses a scrolling wheel positioned just below the arm rest to change screens. The idea is that you can keep your eyes on the road while turning the scrolling wheel. For me, driving and scrolling is like walking and chewing gum. I have the urge to look down when the function I want to control doesn’t instantly respond, which is never advisable while at the steering wheel. We’re still waiting for the perfect solution on how to change screens from nav to radio to Apple CarPlay, or for gesture control to actually be able to read our minds.

By the time I met up with Ashley and Amelia, I had already spent several days tooling around town in the zippy S3, and the low-key screens never got in my way on the road. A big reason for that is less buttons. You can scroll, you can zoom with your fingers. And if you have to use voice commands, most of the time, the machine understood my Midwestern cadence. The virtual cockpit also allows the driver to choose from three different views, and you have nice graphics to remind you the look of the S3 car you’re driving.

How much should your car do for you? There’s a lot of debate on how many doodads people want or should have at their fingertips while driving, and even while at a standstill. The razzle dazzle of the Audi system leaves the impression that it wants to entertain you, or at least to make driving more of cinematic experience via the virtual cockpit and retracting screen, with a clear beginning and end. But the mere fact that Audi has videos to demonstrate how to operate its system shows that the average customer might not fully appreciate what this system can do. When the technology is so good and so intuitive that it no longer requires a video explainer, that’s the true game-changing car.
