Audi A9 Hybrid Concept

By Spanish designer, Daniel Garcia.

Self-repairing windscreen? I need to find this dude and nip his idea in the bud.



"The A9 would be positioned higher than Audi’s current flagship model, the A8, and is aimed to compete with other high-end luxury saloons on the market. Other futuristic additions include bodywork with a unique “electronic paint” that enables the vehicle to change color at the touch of a button."

I know that concept cars are just that, concepts, but surely a lack of a window is a step too far.....

****Checks that it's not April 1st****

ETA - Me, I'm a fan of this A9:

Now there's something not quite right about that self repairing windscreen, but I can't quite put my finger on it.......

ETA When I saw the thread title I also had visions of a midget jumping out of the spare wheel well with a ball hammer and whacking dents out while the owners in the shops

I suppose you look out trough camera's?
They can't even get it in production with rear view mirrors rofl

That said, looks way too much like the BMW concept imho.

I don't care what it looks like, but 'self-repairing' = kryptonite
