Audi доработала мультимедиа в Q6 e-tron после жалоб на сенсорное управление
Like many automakers, Audi is listening to the backlash towards touch-sensitive controls. It’s been implementing subtle changes to its infotainment interface and other controls to improve the user interface, and we recently got a chance to try these updates in a 2027 Audi Q6 e-tron. The Q6 e-tron (and its A6 e-tron sedan stablemate) launched for the 2025 model year. After skipping the 2026 model year, the 2027 model-year examples of these EVs underwent changes to the steering wheel to incorporate more physical controls and to the MMI infotainment software to simplify the interface. Similar changes have been propagating across the Audi lineup since. To start, there are new physical scroll wheels on the two steering-wheel spokes. The one on the left spoke controls the digital gauge cluster and cycles through different screens, while the one on the right spoke is a volume knob. There are still haptic buttons on the new wheel, but they’re responsive, and we prefer this setup to the previous one, which had only touch-sensitive buttons. The wheels are both simpler to use and have a satisfying click. Audi also says it simplified the menu structures and changed the appearance of the display of its MMI infotainment interface, seen both on the central display screen and in the digital gauge cluster. We found the system easy to operate, with quick responses to inputs on the touchscreen, and the new appearance makes the built-in software look and feel a bit more like Apple CarPlay, with larger icons and simple backgrounds. Some of the vehicle-settings menus are still complex, but day-to-day functions such as audio controls and navigation were logical enough to use. As is the norm these days, over-the-air updates mean that Audi is also adding new functions to the system, such as the newly available Spotify app that allows you to access the streaming service in the car’s system without tethering it to your phone. We’d still skip the optional passenger display screen, which seems unnecessary and is somewhat limited in its functions. Plus, given the amount of screen real estate already present on the dashboard, the addition of a third, 10.9-inch screen makes the entire dash look like a screen. The passenger display is available as part of the $1800 Technology package on the Premium Plus trim, and it comes standard in the top Prestige trim. ➡️ Skip the lot.
