That’s one big arse grill!

And not just the grille:

...the Urbansphere measures 5510mm long...

Seven inches longer than my Galaxie, and even that is nowhere near fitting into a normal parking space.

It's an Audi. Parking well is for poor people.

What a hideous oversized creation.

“ Power is supplied by the same 120kWh battery used by the Urbansphere, offering up to 466 miles of range.”

No it won’t…

You’re all being a bit harsh. Yes it’s huge, but it seats….. what the fook?

That has major Renault Avantime vides about it.

They could probably fit some rails to hang on to like this, for more capacity:

I don't hate the grille though. Yes it's big but it's vastly better integrated than BMW's awfulness.

It says it’s for the Chinese market anyway- where showing your wealth with a car involves sitting in the back and having a chauffeur drive you everywhere

However it appears instead of looking at a long wheelbase range rover as inspiration, Audi has instead looked at a Mercedes sprinter minibus

I wonder how much it weighs ? It must be well on the way to three tonnes.

Do these concept cars which look like something from a sci-fi movie ever make it to production? We still seem to be stuck in this weird middle ground where anyone other than Tesla just sticks with a traditional-looking interior and then crams some touchscreens and shiny bling lights in to the dash?

I was thinking it was more Alphard/etc.
